As expected, MSM will be making the case for conviction. The judge knows this and wanted the juryimpacted by this.

Judge Merchan's henchmen attempting to "convince" the jurors how to vote.

The state brought a weak as shite case and didn't prove anything. Plus the judge has proven a hostile bias toward the defense witnesses and questioning. There's no need to put Trump on the stand of a hate filled Judge.

Hoping time will fade the shock of multiple impeachments of their sole witness with relevant testimony.
I'm waiting to hear about the walking indictment of Cohen on perjury, larceny, and extortion charges.

What is he going to testify about? They have not even told him what he is charged with. This is a abomination and lawfare to the max.

Care to elaborate on how he "proceeded to show contempt". Cannot wait to see how a simp like you tries to spin it. Congrats on being smooth brained though.

again, his right just like every other criminal defendant. but what changed his mind about "ready & willing to tell the truth?" or was all that just bullshite? he stood out on the steps of the courthouse and said he "couldnt testify because of the gag order" which, as we know, was untruthful. what's his excuse now for not testifying when he said repeatedly that he was anxious to do
so?
We get it, you’re upset because your best chance to finally get the orange man is crumbling before your eyes.

Well, the appellate court will make some decisions too. Amazing you support such a clearly biased court. All because OMB. Weak-minded simpleton.

LOL, exactly. I would say deliberations would take 30 seconds, but they have to pretend they "reviewed" the evidence before the guilty comes down.
I do feel bad for any normal person on the jury. Imagine having to either find him guilty, or have your life upended and have to go into hiding after getting doxxed by CNN. I assume all the jurors were hand selected knowing they would vote as instructed, but if one slipped by, that poor fella has one heck of a decision in front of him.

The crimes listed in the indictment are time-barred. It relies upon an unknown other crime which was never introduced. Clearly you are ignorant to what this case is all about. Perhaps you shouldn’t be opining from a place of complete ignorance.

Well why did they not try to prove it during the trial? Basically, the prosecution did the opposite. Hell Trump may have to put the prosecution on his pay role as they did just as good of a job of proving his innocence than the defense did.

You obviously haven't. Cite me the felony statute that is being used to toll the misdemeanor crimes for which Trump has been charged. In order to toll the SOL on the misdemeanors, they have to show said misdemeanors were committed in furtherance of a felony. Cite the felony statute from the indictments.

Guessing he wanted prosecutors to ask Trump about his dick or something. It was their big chance to get Trump in front of a hostile prosecutor and hostile judge to bring up any and everything to tear him down politically.
It's clear there is no need for Trump to defend himself at this point, especially since nothing has been proven that requires a defense. Most leftists probably don't understand any of that, though.

He doesn't need to testify!
After the s$show with Cohen, why would he?

It's somewhat odd that he's taking a week off. But, in a trial like this he's probably trying to formulate jury instructions to at least on his end blunt any appeal that would hinge on instruction to the jury as to what legally under the statute they should consider in deliberation.
Behind closed doors, of course, individual jurors can assume whatever they want and depending your side you hope that they follow it as tightly as the instruction given. If you are the defense on this trial you want the jury tightly adhering to the statute because if you follow the statute the state really has not made their case. Trump was entitled to spend his personal money however he wanted and if he was reimbursing Cohen who was his lawyer.....who cares.
That being said, given the venue in Manhattan, I expect a conviction even though the charges are ridiculous and opaque.

did he lie to you or not? did he ever have any intention to testify in his defense?
i dont care if he does or doesnt, and i dont care what happens in this case or any of the other cases against him. who is or isnt president of the US doesnt affect me in the slightest, nor does the outcome of a business records falsification case in NYC. what does affect me is when otherwise smart people that we all depend on to keep society sane (most of the posters on this board) are artificially enraged by a con man

this judge has shown he doesn’t care about getting turned over on appeal…at all. He has made so many breathtakingly awful rulings. He isn’t taking this time to work on jury instructions.
