Joe Tacopina, the personal attorney for former President Donald Trump, said Monday that it’s looking “more and more” like the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office will arrest his client in the coming days — an arrest stemming from Trump’s alleged role in hush-money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels amid the 2016 presidential election.

“I understand the law and the facts here, and there’s not even a bad act — let alone a crime,” Tacopina told Newsmax on Monday night while appearing on “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”

"If there is a bad act here," Tacopina continued, "it's by someone who has threatened to go to the media unless they're paid $130,000 to silence the story, which is normally called 'extortion.' Here, it's just different, and I have to say all decent people — whether they're politically opposed to Donald Trump, or in favor of his candidacy — really should be concerned about this weaponizing of the district attorney's office to pursue a political opponent, or prevent them from running. ... That's what's really frightening to me. I've never seen anything like this."

When asked if Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg would pursue a virtual arraignment of Trump, Tacopina couldn't envision that scenario playing out, simply because the Democratic Party likely wants the visual of Trump being handcuffed in public view.

"This is a grandstand," said Tacopina. "It's going to stain the district attorney's legacy. ... We will win this case — and you can play this clip 10 years from now. ... We will win this case, either on the law or on facts."

If they don’t handcuff him he should do the fake Sandy Cortez handcuffs.

Either way it would only bring him more support.

The silver lining for Trump would be a situation found in Robert Heinlein’s sci-fi novel _The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress._

One of the protagonists, who must carry half of the burden of an important diplomatic mission to Earth, is jailed on spurious charges. The intent of the arrest is to encourage antipathy on Earth and in the Lunar Colonies towards the diplomats and undermine their mission.

But it does the opposite: the base of support for the diplomats in the Lunar Colonies grow indignant over the arrest and rallies behind their representative. The people of Earth not aligned with the North American Federation see that the colonists are in earnest and respect grows for their movement.

Hopefully folks will see this harassment for the (dangerous) sham that it is and folks rally behind the man who is the champion for ALL Americans!

They want him completely humiliated, and us.

It’s also the Nazification of America. Americans disloyal to the country will vote for Trump, while those who are loyal to America will vote against him.

That is what is coming in American’s transformation to the Second Beast of Revelations.

Do any of you remember seeing then carrying the PM of Egypt out on a stretcher type bed? I don’t know about the government of Egypt.. I just remember seeing Mubarak pale, being carried out and never heard from again... whatever they did to him, I don’t know.

But that “picture” came back to me with what they are doing to President Trump.

I have been an American all my life... the greatest country...

To hear what they want to do to my President.. sickens me... sends me to “what in the?... they can’t do this.. he is not guilty of anything... they are forcing this... they can’t do this.. this is America.. what in the?... how do you deal with your government crossing all lines and doing this to our President... they are hitler’s army/government...taking into their hands to try and convict the man who would take them out....this is America?

Every person who wishes this on our President... every person who sees this as fine... if they come for you?
There are limits... we live by law and order... this is over and done... never again will be free... once the mask is off.. this nation is no longer the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lord of Heaven... Master over these filled with hate... show your greatness..show your power.. save the nation You put together... take the evil and those working for that evil...take them out.. protect President Trump... use their hate and ignorance to defeat them..every one of them... Amen.

Whole thing is stupid and fund raising scam for both sides.

Stop the nonsense and let’s have an election.

Oh course they want him in cuffs. They are afraid of him. The fear is so overpowering that they will do anything, even illegal things. to keep him out of power.

Liberals and the Deep State know no ethical bounds when they are afraid of loosing power.

**I’ve never seen anything like this**
Neither have I. In.. during WWII, America was united.. The hate today is unreal..

You anti Trumpers.. If you do not condemn the democratic party for weaponizing the government to take out the President Trump ... they are the criminals and they don’t want Trump to end their web set up to gain millions from China, and countries joe threatened... joe biden is a corrupt half human in the seat of power, If you see nothing wrong for the commie government to do this, you serve the same master the left does. Ya can’t ride the fence on this one. It’s a yes or no.

They tried everything else to stop Trump.. he has taken no salary and he was in the process of making this country back to successful. with the dems, it’s personal and has nothing to do with anything they claim. IN that laptop, there is proof who the criminals are.. the biden family!

I am beyond angry.. this just does not happen in America.. the fact it is, tells me the serpent is desperate and running out of time. those who are doing this on that side of the aisle are doing the devil’s work.. and the price they will pay is beyond calculating.

It’s not about what they say. no, it’s a spiritual battle and about the control they think is within their reach.. just keep Trump out of that seat. as if they can decide .. no, this is God’s country and I don’t think the left are making any points with the Master of Heaven and earth.

you’re on the money. only Trump has the instinctual fight and backbone to name and root out the abundant corruption in the Establishment. even DeSantis who seemed to have good instincts waffled here, taking 3 days to react. this kind of blatant political persecution/weaponization of justice system warranted an immediate and strong statement, but i think he fell prey to his handlers. the attraction of Trump is that he reacts on a dime, to the chagrin of his handlers. in general but not always that led to amazing results. the major time it didn’t was when he deferred to what he thought was expertise of health bureaucrats, but he even psyched out their weasely ways by spring of 2020 when he tried to open up the country.

That country is long gone.

The "greatest country in the world" murdered 65 million plus of its most vulnerable citizens.

What they are doing to DJT is simply putting it on record that our "greatness" is past.

DeSantis is what you get when a lawyer who is a career government employee ends up in a position of leadership. The guy is a managed, manicured phony.
