The Statement of Facts was a little "better" than I thought it would be.

Its still a flimsy case and I do not claim to be a criminal law expert of the state of new york...

But there is a lot in there that can do some damage to Trump in my opinion. A lot of those details getting out to the public is probably the design. Some of them look pretty bad. Trying to be totally objective here.

Par for the course. Some is for negotiating, some is for adding "weight" to the docket and some is to justify $300/hr

My favorite part so far:

quote:

11. When AMI later concluded that the story was not true, the AMI CEO wanted to
release the Doorman from the agreement.


- National Enquirer bought the story of a doorman who was claiming that Trump had a secret lovechild.

- They then determined that dude was LYING.

- This DA has his panties in a twist because the National Enquirer *didn't publish a made up story* because it would have made the orange man look bad.

The porn star story died and she admitted she never had sex with him as well as Cohen conning her from the money he took from Trump to pay her off.

The playboy bunny doorman story was dumb. Let's say it is all true. Who cares? It is done every day in DC and politico candidates running. The monies came from his private accounts anyway, so it is moot and past the statute of limitations, no?
quote:

“Not guilty,” Trump said from his seat to Judge Juan Merchan during the hearing in Manhattan Supreme Court.

The indictment says those payments were intended to suppress the claims by the women, porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal, claims that they had sex with Trump, in a bid to keep their stories from affecting Trump’s chances against Democrat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.

Follow CNBC.com’s live coverage of former President Donald Trump’s surrender and arraignment at the Manhattan criminal courthouse.

Prosecutors also said a Trump-friendly publishing company, American Media Inc.., had paid $30,000 to a former Trump Tower doorman who claimed to have a story about Trump fathering a child out of wedlock.

All three payments were part of an alleged “catch and kill” scheme by Trump and others, among them then-AMI chief David Pecker, from August 2015 to December 2017 “to identify, purchase, and bury negative information about him and boost his electoral prospects,” prosecutors said.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg at a press conference said each of the false statements in business records, which related to the payment to Daniels, were done to cover up other crimes related to the 2016 election.

Those crimes included violations of New York state election law, and false statements to tax authorities, he said.

No conspiracy charge and no underlying crime laid out, just the idea that it was the justification. All checks (that is what all 34 counts are) were issued by the trust when Trump was not in control and more interesting not ever in NY when they were issued...

If there is no conspiracy, how can he commit the crime in NY and if he is not in control of the trust, with no conspiracy how was it done?

This is very meh to me

The man has had an anal probe by the dnc and government since 2016. We know Trump. All of this makes him stronger.

Wasn't Karen McDougal one of the ones that it came out Hillary paid $500K to, to lie about Trump? Or the one who said she asked Trump to her room?

okay




I’ve been incredibly objective on this. Ive said time and time again I thought this was all bullshite.

I still think that. This case should be dismissed. It’s flawed on its face. It’s at best past the SoL and really there’s no crime.

What I meant by “better” is that what this is really about is making Trump look bad. There are a lot of sleazy details laid out that don’t look good.

But they aren’t crimes. Bragg should be ashamed.

So .....are they just going to have the jury of dems issue their Verdict right away, or do they want to draw this out and make some publicity?
