"The alleged one-night stand between Daniels and Trump is far more of a stretch," wrote von Spakovsky. "Daniels had no connection to the presidential campaign of any kind and the encounter - if it occurred - didn't happen during the campaign itself. In any event, even if the Daniels payment were to be considered a campaign-related expense, unlike Edwards, the nominal $130,000 payment wasn't made by Trump campaign donors but by Trump's personal attorney (not the campaign's attorney) with whom he has a long-standing business relationship. . . . Even if one might be able to reasonably construe the payment to Daniels as somehow related to the presidential campaign, there still would be no violation since candidates are allowed to spend as much of their own money as they want on their own campaigns."

They still got nuthin'. And Bragg should be fired.

The Nazis are looking for anything to get Trump on. The bass turds feel as though he has embarrassed and run circles around their sorry, goat smellin’, political asses long enough. They’re going to indict him for not enough mustard on the ham sammich. They just want the photo op get photos to show to their kids and grandkids who find out grampa was nothing but a worthless, turd rolling, RAT politician.

Doesn’t this all go back to the ‘bill’ that Cohen handed Trump and what was on the bill, then how Trump wrote ‘for’ on the check?

Bragg is being pushed into doing this from people outside NY. Everything else The Swamp has tried to get Trump off the political stage has failed. This is the political version of a Hail Mary pass!

The Great Political UnRegistration

On Wednesday morning, if the Republican Establishment has done nothing to defend Donald Trump against this political circus, leave the Party and register as an Independent. Millions of us doing this will get their attention.

As I think about this after knowing it is only political theater it occurs to me:

Since when is settling a civil lawsuit out of court with a payment and a non-disclosure agreement? For anything?

And. Haven’t we been all through this already?

The case has all comes down to not wanting Trump to win a second term. They don’t like him, they don’t like what he represents so they have been targeting him for the last 8 years or so. Rule of law my backside

Bill Clinton paid off Paula Jones.
Paid $875K (???)
The penalty was $700K

Bill did not have the $875?
Someone made up the difference

Nobody says nothing
Nobody is pursuing the truth

And Bragg should be fired.

Bear in mind that Bragg is only a slave on the liberal plantation. You don't fire slaves. You typically whip them if they disobey.

Or give them only bread and water. He greatly fears that, but have you seen a pic of him? He has never known food deprivation in his life. A typical, fat, self-satisfied liberal who has, incidentally, let crime run wild on his watch.

Affair never happened

“The alleged affair never occurred.”

Keith Davidson, a lawyer for Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, confirmed the statement was authentic but didn’t offer any further details.

Shortly after former President Donald Trump announced he expects to be arrested, U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said Republicans don’t need to protest the possible pending arrest because the “communist Democrats” have sealed their fate.

The representative from Georgia took to her professional Twitter account multiple times on Saturday to share her thoughts on Trump’s Truth Social post where he said illegal leaks from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office have led him to believe he will be arrested on Tuesday.

In her first tweet Saturday morning, Greene came after the Department of Justice and the Manhattan DA by stating the potential arrest is “ALL FOR POLITICS!”

“This is what they do in communist(s) countries to destroy their political opponents!” Greene wrote. “Republicans in Congress MUST subpoena these communists and END this! We have the power to do it, and we also have the power to DEFUND their salaries and departments! Enough of this!”

“Alleged”

People in Trump’s position often settle out of court.

It’s why people like STD sue people like Trump.

Articles like this are written as if Trump will be treated fairly. Obviously, these authors haven’t been paying attention over the last 8 years.

In NY State, abusing one’s DA or AG position for political lawfare to gain name recognition is a long-standing tradition

Cuomo, Spitzer and (almost) Schneiderman rose to governorship this way.

Bragg is playing political whore + Al Sharpton, to burnish his NY democrat credentials.

Both deny the one night stand story. So the question then becomes why the payoff?

Probably that scumbag lawyer Cohen was playing the long game. Pay her with his own money to set Trump up, submit a reimbursement request to Trump hoping he doesn’t look closely at it, just more “legal expenses” from the lawyer.

Then Cohen leaks the story to the scumbag demonrats.

If we are going to prosecute sex scandals then lets re-open Epstein case and his sex island of young children and all the traffic to and from it on the “Lolita Express”....
