The convicted felon has three other serious crimes pending (Jan 6 is one of them), and between the Supreme Court and Judge Aileen Cannon, they have blocked the trials. I followed the news enough to know about the other cases and it seems to be likely that none of them will go to court before the election in November. I don't know who, except from Trump lawyers, is responsible for the delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mtls2005 Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 3 hours ago, novacova said: Third world delusional leftist nonsense. It’s quite remarkable that there is a third world banana republic court system in a modern western city. Equally remarkable is well educated people are so easily influenced and dumb down by the media. Richard Nixon would have been indicted - a Grand Jury was in session - had he not been pardoned by Gerald Ford. Plenty of other countries - France, Israel, South Africa, and South Korea - have prosecuted former leaders. Interesting that you did not address the charges, and immediately jumped to questioning the Rule of Law, and insulting large swaths of the population.

Point out those 'crazy comments'. In the one trial he could not delay---because he didn't appoint the judge, it is not under the purview of the Supreme Court (where he appointed 3 judges and where a 4th evidenced support for the "Stop the Steal" fallacy), and where he doesn't have a Repub Governor, he was found guilty by a jury of his peers. That is how the American Justice System works. The convicted felon doesn't seem to like it when he cannot get undeserved favorable treatment. I wonder how many people---even those who have a Security Clearance, which he never had (Presidents are not given a security clearance, and certainly do not have one after being defeated or leaving office)---would not already be in jail awaiting trial for such a massive theft of highly classified documents? You cannot argue the facts, so can only resort to a silly comment. You should take your condoms off. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is JUST staying within the limit of legality, but she's obviously in the tank for the convicted felon. The Supreme Court is slow walking the decision of whether or not the convicted felon could legally have his enemies killed by Seal Team 6. This decision puts ALL OTHER cases on hold. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Will this verdict change anything? By now everyone knows that he <deleted> that porn actress while he was married. Some time ago I would have been sure that such a fact will guarantee that nobody who calls themselves Christian would vote for such a person. I was obviously wrong, very wrong. So now he is convicted, by a court in NY. Will anybody who supported him until now will now not support him anymore? I don't think so. Will some people, who are not sure, will now see that the effort to convict Trump in this case is totally out of proportion? Is he the only politician who ever did something like this? How many other politicians were convicted of a similar crime. And why is it so difficult for many people who see more than only black or white? IMHO Trump is a bad presidential candidate. But if he would have the better politics I wouldn't care if he <deleted> a hooker and paid her for it. Biden is also a bad candidate. But IMHO still a lot better than Trump. But all in all I could make lists od reasons to vote for any of them and reasons not to vote for them. This is not black and white. It's grey, and mostly a lot of dark grey. It's so sad that Americans are not able to find someone competent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post pomchop Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 28 minutes ago, theblether said: Farcical. There's no way this survives an appeal. It doesn't matter now anyway, it can't be appealed before the election due to the sentencing date. And I said already, I think there's more merit in the other cases. This one is a joke. A very poor joke. I highly doubt an appeal (grounds?) will overturn it......and yes the other cases are generally more serious crimes with even more evidence and republicans set to testify. If it were not for all the whining and delays and total BS by t and his minions the trials would take place before the election and trump who of course has never ever done a wrong thing in his pampered life would be permitted to demonstrate once and for all how innocent he truly is and how everyone is always picking on him...especially all those republicans who will be called to testify against him. The jury apparently does not agree with your idea that it was a very poor joke and they were there for every minute of the evidence presentation whereas you were not. Trump understands very clearly if he does not win in 2024 that he is going to eventually face the music in all of the trials with a very high chance that he will be wearing a nice orange suit to go with his orange hair. If only they would allow him to testify...oh that's right he was told repeatedly by the judge that he can testify and confirmed to the judge that he understood that right...before he stood before the cult and claimed the judge would not let him testify...yet another total BS lie that the cult swallows hook line and sinker 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre0720 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 28 minutes ago, Walker88 said: I see you're a real Law and Order type. If you read the indictment, now conviction, all will be clear. He engaged in fraud in service of another crime. In NY State that is a felony. A jury of his peers found the evidence compelling, so he is now a convicted felon. As for paying for the services of a lady...that did not happen. He paid to keep her quiet about services rendered. What he did with her is up to his 3rd wife to decaide if that is okay; the court was only concerned with the fraud involved in covering it up. Do you have an opinion on whether any of us have stolen thousands of highly classified documents? Is that something anyone would do, and then lie about returning what he had no right to possess? How about how many of us have called the SecState of Georgia and pressured him to engage in voter fraud? How many of us fomented an insurrection by first calling our supporters to DC for 6 Jan 21, and then telling them to march to the Capitol and fight like hell? I cannot speak for other members, but I have never done that, nor did I ever engage in a fake elector scheme to subvert the wishes of the American people. Magnitude... So what was the objective of Biden with all his lies and lies and lies about unreal memories of his younger age? If not to subvert the wishes of the American people?

Popular Post Danderman123 Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 (edited) 36 minutes ago, Hanaguma said: You might want to check the numbers. Under Trump, inflation was lower, gas prices were lower, unemployment for minorities was at a historical low, housing was affordable, interest rates were lower, etc. These are the things people will remember. As for the trial, I am still trying to find the crime. He screwed around on his wife- not a crime. The whore contacted Trump's lawyer and wanted hush money- not a crime. The lawyer paid the money- not a crime. The money wasn't stolen or embezzled, AFAIK it was Trump's money. The big problem now is that the gag order put in place for the trial is no longer valid. Trump can campaign, can talk, and will appeal the conviction. Probably win that too, but at the moment it isn't important. Trump being a dirtbag is baked into the pie by this point. I don't think a papershuffling conviction will do much to tarnish his image.
