  1. Right -- and you could be killed in a car crash on the way to the hospital.
  2. The indictment makes 40+ references to Attorney 1. Attorney 1 is Corcoran. The information on Corcoran in the indictment comes from Corcoran's testimony at the Washington DC Grand jury after Judge Howell issued a ruling on waiving attorney-client privilege. But the Miami Judge whether Cannon or eventually someone else is not bound by the WDC Court's Grand Jury ruling to allow Corcoran's testimony at trial. From NY Times: During the investigation, Judge Beryl A. Howell of the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that the exception applied, forcing Mr. Trump’s lawyers to provide information to the grand jury. But Judge Cannon is not bound by Judge Howell’s decisions when it comes to what information should be presented to a jury. During pretrial motions, if Mr. Trump’s lawyers ask Judge Cannon to suppress the evidence to protect attorney-client privilege and she does so, prosecutors could appeal — but that would further delay the case. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/12/us/judge-aileen-cannon-trump-trial.html or https://archive.is/sm8Jm
  3. You're the one who said Trump sticking to the same verbal game plan outside of the court would be a plus for the prosecution.
  4. The only thing that counts is what a Judge allows to be said/presented in the presence of a jury. And if your "admitting his crimes" refers to the 'smoking gun' meeting as in the indictment, maybe not hang too much on that just yet.
  5. Trump never has to say anything under oath. Saying 'Not Guilty' at an arraignment just means you are not going to plead Guilty at least at the present time.
  6. Trump nor any defendant in a US criminal trial is not required to take the witness stand at all. That is, if the defense does not call the defendant to testify, the prosecution cannot then call the defendant to testify,
  7. At least in the USoA, in a criminal trial, it is the job of the prosecutor to prove the defendant did do as charged. Not that the defendant has to prove he didn't do as charged
  8. The double recovery refers to 2 lawsuits for the same 2019 defamation. And what you refer to the 'first case' is actually the second case. The case involving the amended complaint as in the OP was filed in 2020. That case has been long delayed as it was filed when Trump was still President and all the implications thereof. That cased is noted in Court documents as Carroll I The case you have called the 'first case' was filed in 2022. In Court documents noted as Carroll II. And the appeal and the new trial or remittitur motion are both for Carroll II.
  9. Trump asks for new trial in E. Jean Carroll sex abuse case June 9, 2023 In a filing in federal court in Manhattan, Trump's lawyers said the jury's $2 million award for the sexual abuse portion of the verdict was "excessive" because the jury had found that Carroll was not raped, and that the conduct she alleged did not cause any diagnosed mental injury. Trump’s lawyers said in the filing on Thursday that Carroll is seeking “double recovery” with the second lawsuit. They also argued that the jury’s awards were out of proportion to similar cases, asking U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan to reduce them if he rejects the bid for a new trial. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-asks-new-trial-e-jean-carroll-sex-abuse-case-court-filing-2023-06-08 Note that this is a separate motion from the appeal.
  10. I was responding to a query of "How could America stoop so low as to give this obnoxious buffoon any credibility???" And the Kansas map was just one example as to where such persons who give Trump credibility were located in 2020.
  11. I have posted the 14th Amendment Disqualification clause. In brief: Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment gives Congress the power to disqualify someone who has already held a public office from holding "any office" if they participate in an "insurrection or rebellion" against the United States. https://constitution.findlaw.com/amendment14/annotation15.html Not general purpose felony conviction.
  12. The people who in the main supported Trump don't care who busted the unions. They just want someone to tell them you got screwed and I'm gonna do somethin' about it.
  13. Americans get to vote. I voted against Trump twice. Because of Patriot Act implications, I may not be voting ever again.
  14. OK just to note that Rachaphruek is only 1 km from Srinagarind if you need to look at other options.
  15. To a post just above, this from April 2016: Trump overwhelmingly leads rivals in support from less educated Americans Apr 3, 2016 6:52 PM EDT (Professor) Cramer explains, “These are folks who have been feeling a real struggle to make ends meet for decades now and they see a candidate coming along who says to them, ‘You’re right. You’re not getting your fair share. It sucks. And I’m going to stand up for you.'” https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-overwhelmingly-leads-rivals-in-support-from-less-educated-americans I will just add, simply put, for decades there was blue collar manual work at good union wages for those with only high school level. Enter Trump.
  16. When I soundly went to sleep the evening of NOV 8, 2016 Thai time, the New York Times polling was saying 90% chance of Hillary Clinton winning the Presidency. A big topic was what would be the proper titles for President H. Clinton and her spouse Bill post-election. When I woke the next morning Thai time, the NY Times was saying 90% chance Donald Trump will win the Presidency. So regardless of the probabilities, could this happen again? Yes.
  17. The issue may not be the nuts & bolts of the case but procedural issues -- the Corcoran Washington grand jury testimony may not be allowed and the "slam dunk" audio tape may not be so slam dunk after all.
  18. The question I responded to was: Who can give this buffoon any credibility? That's the problem: Lots of people. And I'm not a poster from Scotland who needs to have the popular and electoral vote explained to me.
  19. You asked: How could America stoop so low as to give this obnoxious buffoon any credibility??? well about half the country did in 2020 and most of them maybe are still there. I spent lots of time in Florida counties that went for Trump 80% and even 90% in 2020. Thankfully well after I left US as my place of residence.
  20. Well here is a partial answer from 2020 presidential election. Kansas metro area counties blue for Biden -- Counties red for Trump. Trump won roughly 56% to Biden's 41%.
  21. Well Srinigarind is a BIG hospital. I would check if the insurance would do direct billing to a public hospital.
  22. Trump's legal team downplays Tuesday's arraignment as simply "procedural" According to sources familiar with the planning, Trump is expected to be joined by lawyers Todd Blanche and Chris Kise. Meetings with local attorneys are continuing. But for now, he's leaning on Blanche, who he sees as a "killer," and Kise, who knows Florida, to help him navigate this terrain. https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/live-coverage-trump-arraignment-miami-court-federal-indictment/
  23. No, Texas can’t legally secede from the U.S., despite popular myth The theme of independence has recurred throughout the history of Texas, which was a republic from 1836–45. But the Civil War established that a state cannot secede. If there were any doubt remaining after this matter, the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia set it to rest when he asked by a screenwriter in 2006 whether there was a legal basis for secession. In his response, he wrote: “The answer is clear,” Scalia wrote. “If there was any constitutional issue resolved by the Civil War, it is that there is no right to secede. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/01/29/texas-secession/
  24. https://rph.co.th/en/product/hip-replacement-package/ Khon Kaen -- note that their are insurance billing restrictions.
  25. How a Trump-Appointed Judge Could Influence His Documents Case Judge Aileen M. Cannon will wield sweeping power over the case’s tempo and what evidence to allow in or exclude. During the investigation, Judge Beryl A. Howell of the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that the exception applied, forcing Mr. Trump’s lawyers to provide information to the grand jury. But Judge Cannon is not bound by Judge Howell’s decisions when it comes to what information should be presented to a jury. During pretrial motions, if Mr. Trump’s lawyers ask Judge Cannon to suppress the evidence to protect attorney-client privilege and she does so, prosecutors could appeal — but that would further delay the case. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/12/us/judge-aileen-cannon-trump-trial.html https://archive.is/sm8Jm
