The closer you look at Bragg's case, the stupider it becomes.
None of the liberals calling for Trump's head know what he's accused of, they just know he did it. They don't remember how the previous accusations ended or even what they were, despite having taken the strongest of positions; and here they are, again, taking the strongest position on the one issue they want you to know they care about: Donald Trump is Guilty.
So that's the Manhattan jury pool. Almost all of them read the New York Times so it's no wonder. But to be fair, no one else knows what Trump's accused of, either. Not the lawyers, not the pundits nor the people they interview. Three weeks in, no one on either side or on the outside knows what the crime is. I heard a Politico reporter tell Brian Lehrer that a prosecutor doesn't have to say what the charges are, but can figure them out as he goes. Lehrer affected that this made perfect sense to him, and I think they're right: Alvin Bragg himself doesn't know what the charges are.
I asked my mom, a reliable barometer for MSM messaging, to explain the crime in Trump's “hush money” payments, and she said it's the cover-up. “That's what an NDA is, Mom. An contract to pay someone not to talk.”
“But Trump covered that up,” she said. “During an election.”
She thinks of the hush money as the crime and the cover-up, but simultaneously, thinks the crime is the cover-up of the hush money. In other words, she tracks Bragg's case perfectly. Michael Cohen paying Stormy Daniels and billing Trump for reimbursement could only have been directed by Trump as an illegal scheme to conceal the NDA.

So no answer. Just a common everyday troll. Thanks for playing.
No one on Free Republic is interested in PMSNBC-DNC Narrative Talking Points except for FR Democrat Party operatives like you, cucks.
Any more attacks on effective conservative women today, joesDemocrats?
You've gone after Kristi Noem and Kellyanne Conway over the last couple of days, you Democrat POS.
But Stormy signed documents stating that an affair never happened and Avenatti is prepared to testify that it was all a shakedown scheme. Stormy and Avenatti have very tarnished reputations so who knows what the real truth is. But Trump is a germophobe so I tend to believe him that the story was another hoax. These NDAs happen all the time in business to get rid of noisy women making wild claims that could cause more business harm than the NDA payment for something the business executive knows is false (not to say that they are all false). It is almost like fake slip and fall accident payoffs. Cheaper to do the payoff than to go to court and the personal injury lawyers know it. Of course the election was probably one of the reasons Trump didn’t want to deal with this story. That is why Stormy and Avenatti timed it just before the election.
A public service from DNC headquarters.
Nicolle has got a squeezebox,
joesbucks never sleeps at night...
That’s true. Thats what I like about this trial. The truth is coming out.
How about the Steve Bannon/Don Jr talking points when they were dishing in Noem. They stealth liberals too? Maybe Tapper and Wallace are mentoring Bannon and Don Jr?
Note how the FR Democrat Party operative is trying to change the subject of this thread, which is this:
Our famous FR Democrat Party operative "jerksbucks" wants us to believe his Nicolle Wallace wet dreams about Trump being convicted in a show trial by "Cartel" Mercan and Fat Alvin.
Hit a shoe spot with Bannon and Don Jr? They have to be stealth liberals to speak about a strong conservative woman the way they did. And Don wasn’t extorted. But he did lie to you and me about knowing what Stormy’s payment was about.
Too damn many Democrats running around unchecked on FR.
As for this case, Trump left the money he owed Cohen off of his 2017 disclosure, but in a footnote in his 2018 disclosure he said he had “fully reimbursed” Cohen for expenses he had incurred. (It didn’t specify for what.) Subsequently, in May of last year, the OGE sent a letter to the Department of Justice alerting Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein about the omission. And in August, watchdog group the Project on Government Oversight asked the OGE to review whether that footnote had been accurate, since it declared Trump had paid Cohen up to $250,000 but prosecutors revealed Cohen had received $420,000.
So in 2018, he said they were reimbursements. He now claims they were payments for legal services. So he’s lied about the amounts AND whether they were reimbursements or legal fees.

Although how would the ghost writer know if she didn’t share it with the ghost writer? And she knew it was in there, as she voiced the audio book.
Yes, this unabashed Democrat defender of the Merchan kangaroo court and the fake prosecution by Fat Alvin is running wild on this thread.
Maybe I can get him to re-post the thing that got him a week's time-out a couple of weeks ago:

His NeverTrumping caught the eye of the Boss himself:

Even Lavrenti Garland’s DOJ, which will punish political opponents for crossing the street, wouldn’t go near this case.
I guess Bannon and Don Jr should be banned. Bashing in conservatives. And a strong conservative woman to boot. Terrible.
