This is a weird cope to the fact that the NY criminal appeals system can/will correct errors at trial, in the face of allegations the entire system is rigged.

I thought Trumps trial had legs. Why would he need the appeals courts to make a correction? Are you suggesting that a biased judge/jury pool might be at play here?

Well, no one is thinking that both men could be victims of a runaway justice system. But, that is possible.

I think everyone pretty universally agrees this is the weakest criminal case against him.

No. A system of humans will make mistakes.

If "the system" was "biased" in the way you're framing, then he would have 0% shot of a fair and legitimate appellate review. If Harvey Weinstein got one, there's no reason to presume Trump won't. Hence, why this is good news for Trump.

That’s a district court in NY.

He won't get a fair trial in New York and its very likely the appellate courts won't overturn here. This will have to go to the Supreme court. That's just the reality in play here.

Would be shocked to see it go any other route

Dem appeals courts are letting their lib rapist buddy off the hook as soon as the #metoo movement has cooled down. This shows that they are more politicized than ever, and you think this is a good thing for Trump? LOL

That's some grade A spin right there

I mean...that's a take.

An insane one, but I can confirm it is a take.

I'm sure Weinstein ran a very active casting couch, but that looks to me more like soliciting prostitution in exchange for lucrative roles and career advancement. Somehow, I don't think that a man of his wealth and means needed rape to get laid.

Id like to assume you are referring to your own asinine commentary, but lets be honest.... we're never going to get that level of honesty out of you.

But if you are referring to my assertion that he's likely a powerful dem being let off the hook by sympathetic left-wing courts, I'd like to refer you to the Woody Allen case, the Ted Kennedy case, the R Kelly acquittals, Kevin Spacey, Jussie Smollet, Alec Baldwin, Michael Jackson, OJ Simpson, Don King, Robert Blake, Roman Polanski, etc. I could literally go on forever.

NY judges are selected by dem party bosses and MeToo was their craze at the time.

There is every reason to presume he wont. Harvey's recent lucky streak is just more evidence of this, clown.
