“Stormy Daniels payment”

The dust is so thick on that one they will need a 600 psi air compressor to blow it off.

But watching them fumble around trying to get somewhere with it could be entertaining.

We can laugh it off but this is serious with jail time.

There will be riots in the streets.

Did Daniels ever pay the $293,000 the 2018 court ordered her to pay Trump?

We should laugh it off. It’s a joke.not a bad article, but kind of lazy. I’m not admitted in NY, but best I can make out the statute of limitations for all misdemeanors is two years. There’s a wide range for felonies and the author has a major lack of due diligence in not referencing this angle. The payment was made in October, 2016. 6.5 years is pretty long in tooth for nonviolent felonies. Even if the case is not time barred, as the article suggests, the notion that five years was necessary to investigate this simple fact pattern might presage a hard time for the case before a judge

How about the millions in hush money spent by Congress to protect sitting Congress men and women from sexual harassment charges ?

And she ended up being ordered to pay it back to Trump because she violated the NDA.

The proper retort is that Daniels extorted Trump and is the one who should be charged if any.

I recall it was Michael Cohen that offered the hush money without Trump’s permission or knowledge. Good luck with this phony prosecution.

I can not believe that they are still at this crap-Get Trump! It’s the only thing they focus on, while NYC continues to deteriorate at a rapid pace. SMH.

Bragg is a power hungry black fascist and the best friend that serious criminals have in New York. Wonder how much money WW2 KAPO Soros gave to him?

While hush money is not inherently illegal, the prosecutors could argue that the $130,000 payout effectively became an improper donation to Mr. Trump’s campaign, under the theory that because the money silenced Ms. Daniels, it benefited his candidacy.


If it was the payment they say it was, it was legal - but it could not legally come from Trump’s campaign.

This song and dance of a Trump indictment has been going on for 6 years or more... Enough already!

Trump will NEVER be indicted... Ever!

As far as President Trump is concerned, criminal charges are possible for him breathing, or living. We are in a Stalin, Soviet type justice system and have been for years. And the American Public gives not one damn. Donald Trump must be destroyed because he had the gall to run against the Idol of the Left, One Hillary Clinton. And win. For that, he must die. The hyenas are attacking the elephant.
