Hold Everything: Now Trump Will Likely NOT Be Arrested, at Least on Tuesday

Donald Trump announced on Saturday morning that he would be arrested on Tuesday, and the nation has been agog at the prospect of the Leftist establishment crossing the rubicon of arresting its principal opponent on flimsy charges and demonstrating before the entire world that the American republic is now the American banana republic, in which foes of the regime can expect the full weight of corrupt government authority pushing back against them for daring to dissent.

But now it turns out that the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which has Trump in its sights, just may be stepping back from the brink: Business Insider reported Saturday night that Trump’s indictment is “on hold” until one more witness testifies Monday afternoon.

That’s about all that has come to light, as the relevant authorities are being quite closemouthed about this whole thing. Insider says that “a source with knowledge of the investigation” told them on Saturday night “there is one more witness.” The indictment is apparently not a certainty until this witness testifies.

But who is this witness? The Insider’s source wouldn’t say, and so all that we’re told is that “a separate source, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, told Insider that the witness is not Allen Weisselberg, Trump’s former CFO, who is serving a five-month sentence for admittedly masterminding a payroll tax-dodge scheme at the Trump Organization.”

Meanwhile, Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen, whose betrayal of his former client started this whole business about Trump having paid hush money to a porn star (which is what he might be arrested for, not any of the literally dozens of other crimes that Democrats have claimed he has committed over the last few years, up to and including trying to overthrow the government of the United States), “has told reporters

I think by Trump announcing it sucked all the potential positive visuals and talking points on the news out of their evil plan. Almost every talking head I heard this weekend, even those I know don’t like Trump at all, were panning this indictment.
For all we know, Trump may not have known for sure that they would indict him or indict him on Tuesday. Maybe he just got out in front of rumblings and shot the dragon in the keester.

It looks like Georgie Soros’ Junior Nazis have figured out that they are ****ing up. ROTFL!

Tucker, Elon and many other media power people are saying that out in the open internet.

I think they saw the polling numbers resulting from the potential indictment and decided that their plan to make Trump look bad during campaign season would boomerang on them. What desperate losers.

Desperate is an understatement. And they have always been losers...and always will. Which is why they have to cheat.

But nothing has happened. That’s my point. I think you missed my point about this case not making it to trial. That statute of limitations alone would be a reason to dismiss this.

I'm well aware this case is BS.

They are playing Trump…and his dedicated followers.

You miss my point. Trump is playing them back.

He's gaining support.

Yes, they were aiming for shock and awe and DJT stole it right out from under them.

So they said to themselves.........’now what?’

Or, they were never going to do it and they played Trump like a fiddle. Just a thought.

Your 24/7 hatred of Trump, earned this reply!

Did the focus groups think it not such a good idea?

Obama was groomed since college for the presidency. Whoever groomed him is in charge. He’s a Marxist tool...a soldier.

Especially the ones making or inferring racist comments here on FR about the prosecutor. Very inappropriate.

His lawyers started walking back the Truth Social screed about his impending arrest yesterday evening.

Really? First I've heard that. Got link?

Ironic that Trump gets hit with Trumped up charges!

If Trump gets charged, then every court case where payment was made to settle out of court with a non disclosure agreement is also fair game. That includes the agreements where big pharma paid billions of dollars to settle suits....

A “surprise” witness after 6 years of “investigation”?

Trump’s indictment is “on hold” until one more witness testifies Monday afternoon.

Guess the name of the witness is who will determine if Trump is indicted:

a. Gallup
b. Harris
c. Marist
d. Nielsen
e. Zogby

Obama was groomed by the CIA and deep state. Look at his first job out of college was with a CIA front company.

Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen, whose betrayal of his former client

I hope people understand the magnitude of that entire conception. This nonsense just shows why attorney client privilege is such a sacred part of our jurisprudence. An attorney who betrays a client isn't worth a bucket of warmed over XXXX er... spit, because you have no idea who or what to believe, the betrayal itself destroying the credibility of the so-called witness - the vengeful self-aggrandizing attorney who has simultaneously demonstrated he could not be trusted with a position of trust under the US constitution exactly because he is a womanish attorney scorned.

Stormy is coming to do a pole dance. It’s the kick off for a new tour.
