Publicly held Trump trials - ongoing

[Hispo]

You misunderstand about the whole thing. The only reason why the evil Biden people failed to destroy you is because it takes a long time for anybody to destroy the good that Trump did in his first term. But there are a whole bunch of other people around the world that Trump didn't have enough time to protect from the Biden Team and the Deep State.

You should really be praying to your lucky stars - or whatever you pray to - that Trump gets in, in 2024. If he does, you just might have a chance to go on living before the Biden Team takes you and bunch of the rest of us out.

Good one. I doubt anyone could possibly be this dumb, but if you're not joking then I'm gonna vote for Biden at least three times just to see you scared shitless of him sending Kamala to "take you out" (for dinner I presume).

He is unironically making a reference of how Biden and the deep state are alledgely behind some kind of plan to literally kill an important percentage of the people in the country or even on earth.
It just takes some memory and recall several of the stuff he has posted about the Democrat party and other conspiracies to infer what he is talking about.
I don't know about you, but in my eyes, the fact Trump decided to actually get into politics has done a very serious damage to the democracy and society of the United States.
It is as if I almost miss the good old days when the difference between democrats and Republicans were their views on economy and how taxation was supposed to be distributed (among other things), it seems this alledged orange "billionaire" just accelerated the polarization and division within the country for the sake of his own ego.

If you said someone back in the 2000s the Republican party was going to support a man facing so many criminal trials and found to be a rapist in a civil trial, they would have called you crazy.

I agree 100%, this is "crazy*1,000", and America has people laughing at us all over the world. It would be hard to get much worse with his repeat opponent being a zombie who often can barely speak any more.

Pick a random time and watch for 10 minutes.  He's fine.

If Trump is a loser, who would you suggest for the Presidency? Look at Biden.

Biden would be fine, yes.  Or anyone in his cabinet, other than a handful of crazies pretty much anyone in the House or Senate.  I'd probably vote for 99% of non incarcerated Americans that would be eligible to run if it were between them and Trump.  That's around 100 million people.

I'd probably have to vote for Trump if he were running against you though.

Trump just cannot help it. He just violated a gag order. Previously, he has been fined for tweeting shit about judges, their families, the witnesses ... beyond anything that you may have seen before in the US justice system.

Pecker puts jury inside how AMI helped Trump in 2016 campaign: Pecker, who ran American Media Inc. during the 2016 election, [...]  testified about the “catch and kill” deals involving McDougal and Trump’s doorman. He said that he met with Trump and Cohen in 2015 where he agreed to be the “eyes and ears” of the campaign and look out for negative stories.

"Catch and kill deals" means finding about Trump misdoings and people who may disclose these to the press. Basically paying someone for silencing a scandal before it happens. Problem here, he charged that to "campaign expenses" and, apparently, evaded taxes and other stuff.

Gag order hearing goes badly for Trump: Judge Juan Merchan issued the gag order before the trial began, limiting Trump from publicly discussing witnesses, the jury, the district attorney’s staff and Merchan's family. He has not yet ruled on the district attorney’s motion to sanction Trump for allegedly violating the order, but it wasn’t hard to tell the judge’s sentiments. Merchan rejected the explanations that Trump attorney Todd Blanche offered for the offending posts after Trump’s attorney tried to argue that posts about Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen were political and not about the case

I can't resist posting this even though it's only a little more credible than your average BADecker post...



'Struggling With the Smell': Donald Trump Farts Up a Storm During His Criminal Trial as a Foul Stench Fills the Courtroom: Report

I think they gave him a picture book too early in the trial.   Now they have nothing to distract him.

Maybe a Playboy subscription in exchange for not Xtweeting anything for, lets say 48 hours?

A textbook narcissist, he is got so many of the traits and tactics of narcissists that should be a case study like...

Patient 187 describes himself as the leader and saviour of his country:

- when he looses describes a situation in which "the largest conspiracy" took place to make him loose,
- his projects are "the biggest projects ever seen" and anyone who dares to question absolutely anything is described as a hater, criminal, conspirationists...
- Any and all failures are described as either "achivements" or "caused by his enemies". Responsibility for actions is nil, and once people do not serve his purpose he goes into full offensive onto them (e.g. the Vice president, his layers,...).

Unable to recognise any mistake, when there is objective information or data showing those, he denies the data, the producers of the information, the media that publishes it and even the colour of the background if given opportunity (e.g. unemployment data).

He probably already has a digital subscription to every dirty magazine.

There are two kinds of Trump trials. There are the government/court trials, and there are the trials of public opinion.

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/26/politics/takeaways-trump-hush-money-trial-friday-day-8/index.html

The hush money case against Trump weaves a colorful narrative with a tabloid publisher suppressing torrid affairs for a businessman-turned-politician and a hush money scheme orchestrated by a now-disbarred lawyer to a porn star.

But Trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records – so prosecutors have warned this will in many ways be a routine, document-heavy trial.

[...]

Banker Gary Farro testified to records that show Cohen changed course about two weeks later in October 2016 to instead open an account for another company – Essential Consultants – an entity ultimately used to pay Daniels in the hush money scheme to suppress her story about an alleged affair with Trump. (Trump has denied both alleged affairs.)

It is clear that this is not some short of casual spending or a simple scheme, it required the creation of opaque companies to get the money from A (the donations for a political campaign) to B, the account of a female porn professional that frequently calls Trump "tiny". As of now, the defence has failed to score any hit that might question the essence accusation.

[paxmao]

the prosecution in the Trump trial got what they wanted from former American Media CEO David Pecker this week — a concession that the hush money payments he made on behalf of Trump were done in order to help Donald Trump’s campaign for president.

All were direct torpedo hits to the defense’s opening statement Monday, in which Trump lawyer Todd Blanche argued that any and all hush money payments were to keep negative stories from reaching Trump’s family’s eyes,

How do you defend someone who has so obviously done the stuff he is accused of? Like kids... using your imagination! However reality catches up:

it’s the only case that will conclude before the presidential election. If the pressure wasn’t ratcheted all the way up before, it certainly is now.

In the hearing about granting Trump inmunity from anything (absolutely anything) done during the presidency:

two justices, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, who appeared to fully accept Trump’s claims of presidential immunity
[...]
Alito went so far as to put forward the argument that not granting full presidential immunity from prosecution would in fact make the president more likely to commit crimes in an attempt to stay in office.

Incredible argument coming from a judge! Is like saying that holding a bank robber responsible is likely to end with the guy killing a police to not be caught, so better not to do anything about it! If you think of it, is quite the opposite, a President knowing that is immune from anything could, for example, order the killing of any opposition. Gates open for a Tyrant.

But alas, this is the type of judges that the Republicans put in the Supreme Court. But of course, there is a strategy behind this orchestrated delay of "sending back to lower courts".

Even if the Court doesn’t entirely endorse Trump’s insistence that he’s fully immune, sending the case back down to a lower court would end any hope that prosecutors had to bring it before the election.

if he wins in November, the decision would for all intents and purposes stop him from being prosecuted for his attempts to overturn the outcome of the 2020 election at all, given that he would be able to shut down the work of the special counsel as president

My guess is that most of the judges would very much like to say that Trump is not immune from crimes done for his own benefit, but many of them are good dogs and some scared dogs. They would rather delay the issue until it is dismissed.
