There is little point in analyzing the bogus New York case against Donald Trump from a legal perspective because, of course, it’s not a legal matter. It’s a political matter. It’s a kangaroo court, an attempt to railroad a political opponent to keep him from winning the election against the desiccated, treacherous, corrupt old pervert whom he’s currently pummeling in the polls. But the legal realities are catching up to the people seeking to frame him. This isn’t a case. It’s a scam. A lie. A sham. And a disgrace, not that anything can be a disgrace in a system so free of any moral or ethical considerations.
I would explain what the case is about legally if it was really about anything legally. I don’t actually understand the theory because there really isn’t one. They don’t need one because, as I said, this isn’t a legal matter. The Soros district attorney, who ran on a platform of finding something, anything, to prosecute Donald Trump for, hasn’t bothered to make it clear either. Why should he? The Democrat-donating judge, who should’ve recused himself based on his own manifest political bias and his daughter’s as well – she’s a Democrat operative — won’t insist that the DA do so. This judge seems focused on ensuring a conviction. He should have dismissed this case. Yeah, we hear a lot about Our Democracy and the Rule of Law, but it’s all a lie. You need to understand that.
The whole idea is to give Joe Biden the opportunity to call Donald Trump a convicted felon, so it’s the problem for them that no one actually believes it’s a real conviction. They know the verdict will eventually be thrown out on appeal by some court at some level that will do its job, as opposed to fluffing Democrat fantasies about imprisoning their political opponents. All they want is to get that conviction before the election. The actual law stuff? That doesn’t matter. It never did.
What’s glorious about it is how it doesn’t seem to be working. Everybody sees what’s going on here. That’s why nobody cares what this judge and jury decree. Conviction schmiviction, all about the Trump Train.
Other people have taken the case seriously enough to try to figure it out and explain what the theory is. Andrew McCarthy’s writings have been notably good on it, and he is certainly no fan of Donald Trump. Apparently, the legal theory is that Trump falsified business records. However, he didn’t actually do any of the falsification. The records weren’t actually false, and it’s all past the statute of limitations. Maybe this was to somehow obscure a campaign contribution in violation of federal law election law, except it wasn’t in violation of federal election law and the Manhattan DA can’t prosecute federal election law anyway, and why even bother going on? The case is nonsense. It’s a joke. No one else has ever been prosecuted for something like this. No one would ever expect to be prosecuted for something like this. If you’re not aware that what you’re doing is a crime – especially when what you’re doing is not a crime – then you shouldn’t be charged with it. But that kind of fussiness gets in the way of prosecuting your political
Again, please tell me more about Our Democracy and the Rule of Law, and how Donald Trump is a threat to them. I could use a laugh.
No, this isn’t like any case I’ve been involved in 30 years of lawyering. I’ve never seen a Democrat conspiracy so transparently corrupt and intent on framing a Republican since the last transparently corrupt Democrat conspiracy tried to frame a Republican. One witness is a woman who has sex for money and has almost as many different stories as erotic partners. Another witness is a convicted perjurer. Both have publicly announced that they’ll do anything they can to harm the guy they are testifying against. It won’t matter – the fix is in, and the jury is all Democrat. It’s really hard to explain how bad this is to a non-lawyer, especially one who gets his news from the regime media, which is collectively too stupid to understand the legal aspects of this even if it was inclined to expose the scheme for the travesty it is.
We’re all supposed to care and imagine that Trump actually committed a crime. We’re all supposed to be up in arms. Oh my gosh, Donald Trump is a felon! Everybody pretend this means something. Everybody pretend this is on the up and up. Everyone pretend this is on the level. But the polls show that people are done pretending. They see this for what it is – part of a pattern of deceit. People have been so repeatedly lied to by garbage institutions that nothing anyone tells them is going to break through and change what they think. We’ve had decades of lies, from the lies about Iraq to the Wall Street meltdown where nobody ever got prosecuted to Covid to Russia to Joe Biden just a week ago doing a 180 after promising to have Israel’s back and then sticking a knife into it. Everything is a lie. Everything is a scam, and why wouldn’t this be too? Think about what that says about how normal people look at their society’s governing institutions.
Trump will be a convicted felon – it’s almost certain because they’ve managed to pick a jury that’s going to convict Trump of anything put in front of it by selecting the jury from 87% Democrat Manhattan. You might get one guy holding out and have a hung jury - insert Stormy Daniel joke here – but don’t bet on it. The kind of strength you need to tell the eleven Democrat schmucks on your panel to go pound sound because you won’t participate in a kangaroo court is more than we can expect from most people, though I’d love to be pleasantly surprised.
Some appellate court will eventually toss this nonsense out, but until then the institutions will try to leverage whatever residual default assumption of legitimacy they still have to make normal people think this is legit. But there’s not much residual legitimacy left. The institutions are corrupt and ruined, dominated by leftists and the woke, and we don’t believe anything they tell us. Trump’s poll numbers may even go up after he’s convicted. What does that say about Americans? Does it say that we tolerate corruption? No, it says that we recognize it, that we understand it, and that we’re not going to be suckers. The people ruining this country will scream that the fault lies with those who notice that ruin. Well, we’re noticing.
Donald Trump’s imminent conviction is not going to change anything. The polls may flutter for a moment, but Trump will come back stronger than ever. And he should because voting for Donald Trump is the only way to repudiate what’s going on now. Sitting on the sidelines tut-tutting at the fallen state of our society is not enough. It is insufficient to be aware of what’s happening. You must be actively based. You must actively support Donald Trump, and his imminent bogus felony conviction should be one of the biggest reasons you do.
“There is little point in analyzing the bogus New York case against Donald Trump from a legal perspective because, of course, it’s not a legal matter. It’s a political matter.”
And by the way, you don’t have to be a legal expert to see this.
Kurt is completely correct.
imho these trials are the reason for trump being up in the polls.
the longer the trials continue the greater will be trump’s lead.
This is true, which is why Mitt Romney said what he said yesterday.
He’s trying to give the Biden campaign some advice, telling them that their best move at this point is for Biden to pardon Trump.
Because none of this is actually going to stop Trump in the election, and it makes the Democrats look really bad that they are doing this.
But if he pardon’s Trump, then suddenly he looks presidential, he looks magnanimous, and Trump loses one of his rallying points.
Fortunately Biden’s handlers are too dumb to understand this.
Kurt had a bad case of TDS when Ron was running. He seems to be over that now.
The decision will be reversed on appeal --- maybe so, but not immediately. Certainly not before the election.
Meanwhile there will be any number of never-Trumpers who will refuse to nominate Trump at the convention, no matter how many votes or delegates he won. And any number of delegates who will change their votes, even in the face of overwhelming primary votes cast for Trump.
And there are any number of States who will take it upon themselves to interpret Federal Election law and take Trump's name off the ballot, despite not having the legal authority to do so.
The dems are desperate, they won't back down and let Trump win. If they have to get more dirty, they will. Bogus mail ballots, Newcomer ballots, all the usual cheats and more...
“Pardon him” for not committing any crime? Ef that.
Biden would never pardon Trump because he is behind all these bogus cases, trying to take Trump out of contention. If Biden suddenly thought that offering a pardon would help him, he would no doubt demand that Trump admit guilt, which he would never do (since he isn’t guilty of anything he is being accused of).
They ought to flood the court room with private Trump security and Secret Service to impress the idiots in charge.
Perhaps take a cue from the trial of the police officer accused of killing George Floyd where the jurors were doxed and harrassed
Mitt the $#*+ is handing Biden’s handlers a gift piece of advice and they are too dumb to open it.
MEANWHILE-—COMER has found more Biden family bank Accounts————
Biden could only pardon Trump in the federal matter (the classified docs hoax case). He has no control over this NY travesty. That may have been what Mitt meant but it wasn’t clear.
