80 million Biden voters in the last election makes you a lonely man. Speaking of coherence, do you even listen to your Dear Leader Trump? You sound like a bitter Truth Social shareholder.

Obama went to Russia for official purposes. Trump went to Russia to get cozy with the FSB and their associates.

I think your assumption is going to be tested during the trial. Even if the underlying crime were committed, Trump has not been charged with it.

You are all worked up about opposition research, which is standard for most campaigns. Next you will get all hot and bothered over funding for voter registration. Meanwhile, Trump is going on trial for hush money payments to a porn star and then misreporting these as Trump Organization business expenses.

If they had used it, it would have been legal. So, what's your point?

because they paid the law firm that hired Steele, and reported it as legal services, instead of for opposition research. In either case, it was a legitimate campaign expenditure.

The Steele Dossier was not released prior to the 2016 election. It was a compendium of reports about Trump, ie standard political intelligence. Most campaigns have that on hand. It contained raw, unvetted data. The Steele Dossier was initially compiled by a Republican group.

You have lost the plot on that one.

There is no evidence that Biden has Alzheimers. It seems that you have been conned.

There is no question that DA Bragg will prove that Trump paid Stormy Daniels off to prevent her story getting out before the election. However, Trump was never charged with that crime, so the prerequisite for a felony charge is just not there. There is a coverup, but no crime.

In such a case, any action in support of a conspiracy to rob a bank can incur criminal charges. In the current case, Trump paid off Stormy Daniels to ensure she didn't go public before the 2016 election. Was that a crime? I don't know, but Trump wasn't indicted for it.

Johnson might simply decline to have Republicans participate in the certification vote, hoping to cancel it due to a lack of quorum. On January 20, Biden's term would end, and Harris', so the 2nd in line would become president.

Trump has been playing with the Russians for 40 years: In 1987, a young real estate developer traveled to the Soviet Union. The KGB almost certainly made the trip happen.

It will be interesting to see how Mercedes holds up during the Stormy Daniels testimony.

But the wild predictions about Trump aren't useful.

You are mostly correct, but your perception is greatly impacted by professional clickbait artists who publish predictions of imminent doom for Trump. If I had a nickel for every headline like: "Former prosecutor/former Trump assistant/former Republican congressman says this latest bombshell report will destroy Trump" I would be rich. I see these almost every day.

I am sorry that my writing style gives you a sad. I will worry about your criticisms after you tell us when Trump tells a lie. I'm not running for Presidents, and my posts aren't significant. Conversely, he *is* running for POTUS, so fact checking him *is* significant.

One factor concerning Latino voter polling data is that some polls are only conducted in English. This causes Latino numbers to skew Republican in those polls. Latinos and Asians typically vote 65% Democratic, no reason to believe this year will be any different.

You are co-mingling 2 different cases, but your second point is correct - it's going to be difficult to convict Trump without proving an underlying crime. My feeling is that Bragg felt pressure to do something given the shady stuff Trump was known to be doing, but he may have over-reached with the felony charges. However, it's possible that Trump's greatest risk may be committing perjury if he testifies. So we may see the unusual situation where he is acquitted and then charged with perjury.

That electoral offense has not been proven in a court law, which may be Trump's main defense.

Indictments for falsifying business records are commonplace in NY.

The problem is that Trump isn't speaking English anymore. We went through this with Reagan, he had good days and bad days. His staff was pretty good during bad days. And he never was so far gone that he wouldn't listen to his wife. Trump, on the hand, is uncontrollable.

Judge Engoron is likely to rule that the bond is invalid. Then, Trump will appeal.

Will Truth Social drop into the 20s by close of business today? At any point, some billionaire may decide to swoop in and buy a boatload of stock, either becauae he thinks the stock is undervalued, or he just wants to happen. If not, this going to get perilously close to zero.

That is suprisingly incompetent.
