It’s still a nonexistent crime.
And I agree.
The Democrats have had a talent at taking perfectly legal actions that Trump has done and making them look illegal.
There's nothing illegal about paying hush money. It is a gift, and nothing more. As long as the recipient reports it to the IRS, it's fine.
Now, it might be unseemly, but this doesn't make it illegal. Politicians do it all the time. Indeed, Bill Clinton's first White House campaign had Hillary running around Arkansas paying off all the women Clinton had slept with.
No, this entire sham is a complete circus. Yet, Bragg is still likely to secure a conviction in a jury full of partisan leftist New Yorkers who hate Trump just for waking up in the morning. It'll get tossed on appeal but the damage will be done.
Trump will win the GOP nomination and then get soundly beaten in the General Election because of the scandals and baggage. Exactly what the Democrats are aiming for.
