Give me a break.

His daughter has made ~$90 Million so far from the Democrats on this farce. Figure after taxes that’s $45 Million, split in half, he has over $20 Million after taxes.

He never has to practice law again, work a day in his life, his daughter is set of for life. He has betrayed everything his life’s work stood for, but HE made a few bucks, and to liberals that’s all that matters.

But is he really destroying his reputation? Does anyone think a couple of the latest seated SC Justices wouldn’t handle things just about the same way?

Photos of the goat more likely. This is an IC trial. (Intelligence Community).

Chances are he is ‘doing’ the lamb and the IC (Intelligence Community) have pictures.

Once the jury comes back with a guilty verdict, Merchan will be a hero to the Democrats, even if Trump eventually wins on appeal. Maybe he will be appointed to a higher level judgeship.

*Blind irrational hate.*

Whether we admit it or not.. We have a mind that is swayed by what we hear and see. An open mind is the devil’s territory. And you can tell what controls these people.
And we can admit it or not.. Trump is God sent.. To save our nation.
They who hate Trump are so far away from God.. They live and never know what is forming their opinions.
Influenced by our surroundings. We can be so filled with knowledge of heavenly truths, the lies roll off our back.

Like Biden - the corporate media, democrat party and liberal oligarchs will run cover and make a Merchan out to be a saint. He's a Manhattan judge for Pete's sake. His reputation amongst all libs will be enhanced by this trial. However, if he has aspirations outside outside of liberal la-la land - that could be a problem.

As I said above. He doesn’t care. This is about election interference. The entire objective is to allow the Democrats to say “Trump is a convicted felon” during the campaign. It does not matter if that verdict gets overturned on dozens of good grounds after the campaign. The objective will still have been met.
