(It’s illegal if you pay someone to lie under oath (subornation of perjury), and if you deduct the payments as business expenses it’s tax evasion.
I’m not saying he did those things, but those things are crimes and if the state can prove them (IF), then this is going to be a big problem.)
You might be on to something. If that’s the case, how long can his lawyers postpone going to trial? Surely you can drag these things out for several years before going to court. I’m pretty sure it would be past election day.
If you look at the links I posted in #147, there was a lot of shifty stuff going on with payments. Shell corporations, AMI, hidden repayment through third parties, fraud, etc.
I’m not a billionaire-celebrity-presidential candidate, so it’s possible this is standard procedure in that world to insulate the rich and famous from salacious press brought by grifters like Daniels and Mcdougal. But I do know the NYDA/DOJ has spent over 5 years stacking up convictions, plea agreements, financial records and testimony from others involved in the whole affair. It’s a ridiculous weaponization of the legal system against Trump.
