BREAKING: A Fuming Judge Merchan Runs Interference for Bragg, Shouts at Trump Defense Witness Robert Costello: GET OUT OF THE COURTROOM, NOW!
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 5/20/24 | Cristina Laila

President Trump was back in a Manhattan court on Monday in Alvin Bragg’s Soviet-style ‘hush money’ lawfare trial.

The prosecutors earlier Monday rolled out their ‘star witness’ Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer, to take the witness stand.

Cohen shocked the public when he admitted he stole tens of thousands of dollars from Trump and lied to Trump Org. CFO Allen Weisselberg.

After the prosecution rested their case, Trump’s defense team called attorney Robert Costello to the witness stand.

I think Trump could appeal to the Supreme Court due to the extraordinary nature of the charges, the trial and the obvious fact that THIS is the most obvious election interference in the history of the USA - and almost anywhere else where opposition opponents are not assassinated!

I also wonder if this trial won’t impact how the Supreme Court will rule on the immunity case. There is NO DOUBT that Biden has turned the DOJ into his Praetorian Guard.

The argument would be A) this is an attempt to prevent Trump from running for office and B) no court below the Supreme can put an end to it.

Good legal argument? No, but there is nothing good OR legal about what is happening in NY!

No the NE is not part of the EU. It has a lot more in common with central america or parts of Africa. Corruption is endemic, class difference are stark, democracy doesn’t work, the best lack all conviction and the worst are full of passionate intensity as the poet would say. There is little accountability and zero self-reflection.

Merchan must be receiving big bucks for his performance in this trial.

Costello’s a real lawyer. The prosecutor and the judge have their likenesses floating around the street on penis-shaped balloons.

“Do you know if Merchan has been every day telling the jury not to investigate online overnight, like he did today?”

Part of standard jury instructions everywhere.

An Appeal will mean nothing. The whole point of this case is simply to call him "Convicted Felon Trump". THey will say it all the way to election because that Appeal will not happen before the election.

Even if the jury is hung, the judge can overrule them and convict Trump. That is what he will do, guaranteed.

I want DNA on that “judge” ASAP. I think it will prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he is a kangaroo. That should end this whole charade once and for all.

Your first sentence is true. Your second is a guess.

Those money bundlers keep up to 20% of what they can raise. If she raised $100 million, the daughter can finally buy a family home to summer in the Hamptons.
