Donald Trump Waits for Jury Decision: ‘World Is Watching’ a ‘Rigged’ Trial
Breitbart ^ | 05/30/2024 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Posted on 05/30/2024 9:41:50 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former President Donald Trump said Thursday the “world is watching” his criminal trial in Manhattan and might decide not to do business in New York State because of its “rigged” judicial system.

Trump made the comments before he walked into his courtroom on the second day of jury deliberations.

“It’s all rigged. The whole thing, the whole system is rigged,” Trump told reporters. “It’s a disgrace.”

So is mine- but DJT always gets through it...

I live in an uber liberal area- two miles from the Clintons...this morning in the gym a bunch of pasty white libs were on treadmills talking about the trial....one said, “if they find him guilty, he will win the election.”

Even the other side understands this is making DJT stronger.

It could also hasten Joe’s downfall.

I would expect, if they find Trump guilty. Then all of those Hunter Biden stories will become front and center.

If they think this is rigged, wait till they start going after anyone who donated to/spoke out on behalf/voted for Trump using RICO statutes for aiding him in commission of his convicted felony.

Take solace..

... the 2 lawyer jurors have lost the authority & influence we expected them to command, since they can’t answer questions regarding instructions, or “beyond shadow of doubt” which I view as a good development.

They’d have to admit this is a muddled mess.

AND

....the judge will be reprimanded and case overturned in the end, if it’s not tossed before an appeal is complete with little or temporary affect on DjT’s election chances. He’ll still be able to campaign since anything that prohibits campaigning will go instantly to the Supreme Court’s from steps.

How long before the guilty as charged verdict comes in? Why have a jury when Trump has been branded worse than Hitler and a threat to democracy? If he gets in Power Trump will take apart the power structure and put lots of folks out of a job. We can’t have that.

The prosecution has not even been able to articulate the elements of any crime being committed, much less prove that any crime has been committed or n this case..

How can Trump be found guilty of a non existent crime?

Silly, it’s new york. No crime need be committed in order to be found guilty, especially if you’re a Republican..

The accusation (and ensuing process) IS the punishment regardless of facts.

If in any place other than NYC or SFO, the makeup of this jury wouldn’t totally horrible. At least, that’s my opinion. In uber-lib, NY, though, default is that they’ll do the wrong thing.

I read somewhere that if a guilty verdict comes down, that would give states the ability to remove him from the Presidential ballot, and thereby keeping him from getting elected President. Is that true?

Law Professor Jonathan Turley writes from inside Merchan’s court:
<><>The jury has been given little substantive judicial assistance to consider,
<><>Merchan even denied the jury a legal expert’s input,
<><>that there was no federal election violation,
<><>that required dismissal for (a) lack of evidence, or, (b) lack of a recognizable crime.

And now we know why: this Judge is not going to assist
a case when his daughter, a Democrat consultant,
has $125 Million in fees on the line, and is being given
unlimited access to his court documents.


Congress needs to pass a law making it a crime to profit on a case being tried.
