What you really mean is asking leftists for "information" that to support their false claims. What typically happens, is that a leftist makes an unsupported claim. Then when I ask them to support it, the leftist either ignores the request, call me stupid or whatnot. or provides a link to some silliness that does not support their claim. This goes back and forth a few times and then the leftist (not caring about the truth) just lies and says they already provided it, and then the leftist calls me a troll or stupid or some-such. It's the same when you ask most leftists to explain something they've regurgitated. They can't, but it's whoever asked them' fault. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a reminder: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg, Jr. today announced the indictment of DONALD J. TRUMP, 76, for falsifying New York business records in order to conceal damaging information and unlawful activity from American voters before and after the 2016 election. During the election, TRUMP and others employed a “catch and kill” scheme to identify, purchase, and bury negative information about him and boost his electoral prospects. TRUMP then went to great lengths to hide this conduct, causing dozens of false entries in business records to conceal criminal activity, including attempts to violate state and federal election laws.

jerrymahoney Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) The lawyers discuss calling dueling campaign finance experts as witnesses Updated 3:29 AM GMT+7, May 17, 2024 With the jury gone for the day, legal arguments are ongoing about the parameters of potential testimony from a campaign finance law expert the prosecution wants to call as a witness should the defense end up calling their expert to the witness stand. Trump’s lawyers have said they may call Bradley A. Smith, a former Bill Clinton-appointed Republican Federal Election Commission member, to refute the prosecution’s contention that the hush money payments at issue in the trial amounted to campaign finance violations. Trump is charged with felony counts of falsifying business records. In order to convict him, the jury must find that he improperly logged reimbursements to Cohen and did so with the intent to commit or hide another crime. Among those other alleged crimes, prosecutors say, were campaign finance violations. Judge Merchan said he would take time this weekend to “digest both sets of submission further.” https://apnews.com/live/trump-trial-updates-day-18-cohen From 2018: https://edition.cnn.com/2018/12/14/politics/trump-cohen-legal-risk/index.html Bradley Smith, a former chairman of the Federal Election Commission, says it’s a stretch to say the payoffs were aimed solely at influencing the election. Writing in the National Review this week, Smith said Trump had valid, personal reasons to hide the alleged affairs from public view. Among them: protecting his family from scandal and preserving his viability as a TV personality had he lost the election. Just because an action might benefit a candidate, doesn’t mean its sole purpose is to influence an election, he said.

jerrymahoney Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 This may be the topic at issue: Irrespective test Commission regulations provide a test, called the "irrespective test," to differentiate legitimate campaign and officeholder expenses from personal expenses. Under the "irrespective test," personal use is any use of funds in a campaign account of a candidate (or former candidate) to fulfill a commitment, obligation or expense of any person that would exist irrespective of the candidate’s campaign or responsibilities as a federal officeholder. More simply, if the expense would exist even in the absence of the candidacy or even if the officeholder were not in office, then the personal use ban applies. https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/making-disbursements/personal-use/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that the payment to Ms. Daniels was related to the election, as shown by the urgency expressed by Trump's mooks after the release of the Access Hollywood tape.
