Trump attorney Joe Tacopina said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that if former President Donald Trump were not running for 2024, he would not be facing an indictment in Manhattan.
Anchor Dana Bash said, “I’m going to speak to Michael Cohen’s attorney next. He says that there is actual evidence that your client, the former president, participated in falsifying business records. Have you seen any such evidence?”
Tacopina said, “Yeah. I know there’s no such evidence. I mean, look, Michael Cohen’s lawyers spitting Michael Cohen’s side. Michael Cohen is a pathological convicted liar.”
He added, “We are going to take the indictment, evaluate all our legal options and pursue everyone most vigorously. This is a case of political persecution. Had he not been running for office right now for the office of the presidency, which, by the way, the polls have shown since this has been announced, his numbers have gone up significantly. Had he not been running for presidency, he would not have been indicted.”

Yes he would still have been indicted...probably moreso...they hate him that much.
This is a political “indictment” by a “weaponized” token RAT buttboy.
I think they would have indicted him even if he weren’t running again. Matter of fact, they will keep harassing him and attacking him until long after he dies. That is how hateful these creatures are.
Not much of a revelation.
The Right and Patriots need to DEFINE the “Deep State”.
Hint: It’s been around in force “benevolently” and unnoticed for about 100 years but turned malevolent since Obama and it is the single greatest threat to our beloved country, our liberty, wellbeing, and very lives.
Probably true.
Matter of fact, they will keep harassing him and attacking him until long after he dies.
And if he was not indicted... he would not be so popular at the moment. Exactly what the DS, the Dems, Alvin all wanted - for the primary.
Trump being the George Floyd of the pseudo-Right is part of the plan.
I think they would still have gone after him. The Left wants to punish Trump and to use him as an example. I’m surprised they haven’t tried to kill him. Stopping him from running again is a secondary concern for them that will probably backfire.
They will go after this guy til the day he dies and then they'll go after his children, it will be a never ending cycle.
Bragg ran on prosecuting Trump.
He never said what law Trump had broken.
"He said that I had transgressed 'The Unwritten Law'"
Pretty sure everyone knows this
They call I an indictment. I call it Trump’s endorsement.
They call it an indictment. I call it Trump’s best endorsement
I appreciate Joe Tacopina opinion, but some jurisdiction, someone or the DoJ would have persecuted president Trump even with him not running. Even if it was a parking violation by his driver.
TDS is an insidious disease.
