Crooked Judges will ignore it until after the appeal after the election.

New York Judges are not suddenly going to quit being Corrupt.

Maybe they have DEI degrees and used AI to build their cases?

[V_TWIN]

Exactly.....this changes nothing

[heartwood]

Is their legal theory that when a politician pays hush money he has to announce it so as not to commit election fraud?

[Flaming Conservative]

In a just world, with an impartial judge, yes. In Merchan’s court, no. BUT always remember, the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord, and He turns it whichever way he desires. Pray to the Lord that He will exonerate Trump.

Time to throw fat Alvin’s butt in Jail. Damn crook.

[Political Junkie Too]

Their legal theory is that paying someone to say misleading things in a negative ad is okay, but paying someone to remain silent is illegally promoting a candidacy.

The problem with this theory is that "freedom of speech" also includes the freedom to not speak.

Actually, the proper motion is for a judgement on the evidence at the close of the prosecution’s case. Not really a motion to dismiss. Although a motion to dismiss could be a vehicle just to put the issue in the judge’s mind and create a record.

Maybe use the noose the boy was intending to lynch Trump with and use it on him. Damn vigilante screwball.

[MeanWestTexan]

Eh, the “crime” is misbooking an expense as an expense, when it (supposedly) should have been a campaign expense. This is wrong, as this was just an expense, not a campaign expense so it was booked correctly, but the distinction the author is trying to make is incorrect.

He’s close, though.

DA Bragg, who received big Soros campaign donations...

[Beowulf9]

More of a road block (to campaigning) than a mistake.

Maybe trying to make some sort of Sarbanes-Oxley connection?

This is all BS. Trump paid off someone to shut up, no coercion involved. No criminal act. This is at best an accounting error.

[GOPJ]

Maybe they have DEI degrees and used AI to build their cases?

OR maybe they're corrupt AND stupid. Oh, wait, that's what you just said...

[sjmjax]

None of this matters.
They really couldn’t care less about the merits or legality of their case.
It’s all about one thing and one thing only.
Crippling Trump in any way possible.

[monkeyshine]

This may be true but how did the prosecution not reveal this months prior to the trial? Don’t they need to present it in the indictment?

[Judge Bean]

I doubt that Bragg or merchant (sp. intended) have law degrees.
