manhattan da is not opposed to the motion
has bragg been told to back off?
Hmm...Merchan sentencing him before the convention or after the convention? Not sure which one is best...he can use it as an opportunity to kill momentum going into the convention, or kill momentum coming out of it...
I thought this took place prior to the election. If so, immunity doesn’t carry.
I’m not saying he’s guilty, the whole trial is a sham.
I think they will may this as a convenient exit so they don’t lose on appeal. It’s an excuse.
Yes the “evidence” was all collected during his presidency, therefore, immune. Toss the conviction out. And Fanny Packed as well. All of these harassment suits are null and void.
I don’t see a connection between the two cases.
I think they are just running scared.
I thought I read that it could be postponed for up to 2 weeks.

Bragg et al reading the tea leaves. Their sham trial had the opposite desired effect they intended. Sentencing or jailing Trump will only further hurt their cause now and they’re hoping for a save face way out of it to minimize how much they look like the fools they really are. Can’t have the Orange Felon gaining even more voters.
They want different timing for the sentencing.
This will end any dreams the RINOs had of using Trump’s imprisonment as a pretext to cram Birdbrain down our throats at the convention.
Not to mention the blabbing juror/ mistrial we have heard nothing further on.
The dissenting opinion of the Supreme Court’s three stooges leads off with a picket sign slogan. “No one is above the law.”...Other than, of course. themselves as judges, DAs, governors performing official duties, congress folks free to defame from the well, etc, all of whom enjoy the same immunity the Supreme Court reiterated the President has in performance of official duties. Apparently, led by the wise latina freshly back from crying in her chambers, they shepardized this case precedent from stacks of picket signs rather than stacks case law and the actual Constitution.
It totally guts the “hush money” verdict and the case will be explicitly overturned on appeal for that alone.
Judge Merchan made a huge mistake in his jury instructions in his desperation to get Trump. This was probably unnecessary because the jury was obviously chomping at the bit to convict Trump of just about anything the judge put in front of the.
And it almost looks like the drafting of Supreme Court ruling had one eye on the Merchan jury instructions because the case work is directly applicable to overturning the Trump verdict.
They used Trumps tweets as evidence about Cohen. The tweets are immune and cannot be used in criminal evidence. The case will be appealed and thrown out based on the tweets being used as evidence in a criminal trial. The tweets were declared official statements when Trump wanted to delete some and remove people from his tweetery.
