Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) for the first time on Thursday addressed a claim by former President Trump that he would be arrested in connection to an investigation into a hush money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, calling it the creation of a “false expectation.”
Bragg, in response to demands by House Republicans to force his testimony and turn over all documents and communication on the case, wrote in a letter to Congress that such a move was an “unprecendent[ed] inquiry into a pending local prosecution.”
“The letter only came after Donald Trump created a false expectation that he would be arrested the next day and his lawyers reportedly urged you to intervene,” Bragg wrote.

“This case is a joke, frankly, and I’ve litigated against that office for 33 years,” said longtime New York criminal-defense attorney Jeffrey Lichtman, who has counted Mexican drug lord El Chapo among his many high-profile clients. “I don’t think that case is winnable.”
Trump trolled and bamboozled Boogums Bragg. Too funny!
You have been over the target, GE. Ooh-rah!
That sure clears the air. Bravo.
Translation: It’s all Trumps fault
“This is almost funny.”
It’s way past “almost” funny. It’s hilarious. Those people are so stupid. Do they even know they’ve been played?
Can’t help, but notice that you are basing your viewpoint on the accusations from Bragg. Interesting.
My viewpoint is clearly posted on this thread. Just because Bragg is wrong to prosecute Trump, which I clearly stated, it is not a license for Trump to make up things out of the blue, such as he’s about to be arrested on Tuesday, or ask people to protest on that day, which could have been bad for their well being. Either you’re for the truth, or you’re not, you can’t have it both ways.
You are too smart by half.

Trump didn’t say that. Liar.
Yup, Trump outmanuevered them and shone the light of truth.
DeSantis now looks like an absolute ass.
You honestly don’t believe Trump claimed he was going to be arrested on Tuesday? So much to call me a liar for simply saying it? Where in the world have you been friend? There’s endless proof of it, biggest thing going on since forever. He’s one report, do you need more? How about Trump’s actual quotes from his own website?
Trump claims he will be arrested Tuesday, calls for protests
Creating false expectations is a felony in New York state.
Similar to counterfeiting Bitcoins.
Sew protests.

Sweet. Lol
AKA Trump called my out and then my plan fell part under scrutiny, despite all the leaks to the press.
Yes, the truth matters. Seeing carelessness with the truth burdens my very soul. So I am hardcore with you on that.
What is bugging me is that you’re apparently basing your concern about Trump lying on the basis of what Bragg accused him of. That seems weird, unless you’re actually a leftist or a squishy conservative.
Lying is NOT OK. Period. But we don’t know if Trump lied. We only have the words of a scurrilous child of hell for that. And yet, you find his accusation credible enough to criticize Trump for lying? Very strange.
