President Trump and US politics catchall

[Guy Smiley]

The jury have made 4 requests regarding detail of testimony from David Pecker and Cohen...

suggesting, perhaps that they are trying to clarify intent.

[Glaston]

Whichever way the verdict goes, Foodie is gonna explode.

Nah, this is just the warm up prosecution; there's bugger all chance of prison time, & it was always the weakest case.

I'll keep the Champagne chilled even if the traitorous piece of shit gets convicted.

[Niegs]

He's madder than Mad Jack McMad!

Hoe-Lee Shit, the jury have reached a verdict !

.......

[inactionman]

Hoe-Lee Shit, the jury have reached a verdict !

.......

My initial thoughts are that he'd get off, but by reaching a verdict I presume it means it's unanimous and not hung?

I can't see all 12 agreeing he's innocent.

Fingers crossed, anyway.

yeah, I have a feeling it's going to be guilty & on all counts, as it's all one underlying act

Well, it would otherwise have been a total waste of Democrat time and effort in ensuring that there could be no other verdict.

In preparation for his victory lap tonight, Joke will be stretched out on the canvas as we write, having his cadaver pumped full of whatever it is they juice him up with.

[inactionman]

Donnie goes down

[Gumboot]

Count 1: GUILTY

[Enzedder]

Guilty of all 34 charges- but nothing will happen.

[Enzedder]

Donnie goes down

Virtual pint that he doesn't.

[Gumboot]

Counts 2,3,4,5: GUILTY

[Gumboot]

Counts 6,7,8,9,10,11,12: GUILTY

Is there a pattern emerging?

[fishfoodie]

Just get the cunt an XXXXXXL orange jumpsuit & put his ass in gaol !

34x guilty counts, from a Jury of his peers !!!

[Gumboot]

GUILTY on ALL counts.

LOCK HIM UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Uncle fester]

[Blackmac]

Donnie goes down

Virtual pint that he doesn't.

Safe bet.

Fair play to them, they have done a terrific job

[Enzedder]

Exactly what has he done wrong. Surely paying a hooker to shut up and not talk to media is between he and his wife and not a legal issue?

It doesn't really matter materially.

One of the consistent patterns is that polls have showed that any, repeat, ANY, felony conviction leads to ~9-10% of voters (who are likely to vote), not voting for the Traitor !!!!

Yanks might be rightly ridiculed for the last few years, but fundamentally they believe in their systems, & this is devastating verdict.

[geordie_6]

The incoming explosions on Truth Social will be excellent. Digital tomato sauce everywhere...

Paying the hush money is not the issue. The issue is that he paid her out of campaign funds and falsified his campaign accounts to cover it up, which is fraud under campaign finance laws.

You are making the assumption that Trump actually slept with the floozy.
Her under-oath trial account of their 'rendezvous' was totally different to what she had told one of the late-night hosts some years earlier.

[Gumboot]

Sentencing will be on July 11.

This is SOOOO important !

If the tightfisted cunt had just used his own money; there would have been no crime, just a personal expense; instead he just couldn't help himself, & used money that wasn't his, & that's what made this a criminal offense !

In other good news, apparently E Jean Carroll has been paying attention, & a 3rd slam dunk defamation case is likely ....

[Jim Lahey]

I mean, who really gives a fuck about this?

It seems a total storm in a tea cup. An accounting error, assumingly on purpose but when you boil it down, the average voter won't give a shit out of which account the money came from.

His voters already knew he's a sleazy bastard that has been banging hookers anyway, and they still love him. So can't see much materially changing as a result, unfortunately.

Point of order. Biden is the sleepy one and I did not make any guesses that Trump could in fact "get it up".

[Hal Jordan]

Right now I'm just enjoying the schaDONfreude. I'll worry about his unswervingly loyal goblin hordes later.

[David in Gwent]

This isn't going to end well for anyone.

Very disconcerting.

Hush, you fool
You're giving the whole game away!!

[Flockwitt]

It’s going to be interesting. This is from those in the know the weakest of the cases against him and while a bit of white collar fraud may be brushed away the classified docs are not a joke - there is a long record of serious conviction for this which can be easily challenged if Trumps judge is too lenient on him.

[Kiwias]

Given that Florida widely restricts the rights of felons to vote, does this mean that the Orange Buffoon will not be able to vote in the November election?

Some nice ammo during the campaigns / debates to say "convicted" and throw back at them their supposedly cherished "law and order" values. (Even if many say 'rigged', you have to think that some sane die-hard Republicans will wither... at least not vote for him?)
