Like any good Democrat supporter, your "explanation" had some stuff "fall out".
To wit: "but [he, "Cartel Merch" Merchan] said prosecutors could introduce the exact words that Trump said, meaning so long as jurors don’t hear the recording itself, it’s fair game."
Which is NOT the same as "allow[ing] the transcript to be entered into evidence".
At all.
Who are you quoting?
Not me.
Second, the cartel slur is just stupid. You continue to do it though. He came here when he was 6.
