What Reason Would A Gag Order Be Placed On Trump?

[eagle7-31]

That's stupid.

First world countries don't allow their heads of state to be above the law.

With very few exceptions unless you are a Democrat.

No, you sound whiny and dumb. Stop embarrassing yourself for a pile of shit who wouldn't give you a squirt of piss, if you were on fire.

In jail ?
Got him now yet?

Lib loons belong on all fours and not on two legs

Somebody give this desperate weenie some attention, before he falls apart ^^

How can that be?... no one has proven that and its been over two weeks of testimony... nothing but a smear campaign and its failing...

Two more weeks to go, they first established the primary reason was for Trump's campaign, they next established that NOTHING gets done or paid, without Donald Trump giving the ok and knowing what the money being paid, is for.....

But they still have to prove trump knew that the payback scheme for the hush money was illegally falsifying business records.

They haven't established shit... the jury will see though this charade....

The most succinct and current answer is to alter the outcome of the election

What do you think will happen if he is convicted?... do you think it takes him out of the race?... it won't... he will pay a fine which will be put on hold until the court of appeals takes a look at the case....

The law does not give a fuck if someone is a presidential candidate.

Actually, it does.

If Donald Trump had no idea of running for anything at the time of the payments in question, how could he have committed a campaign finance violation?

Not that he did, but the prosecution's case would be literally impossible if he had not been running for president.

The prosecution's case would not even be given the time of day, if Trump were not running for president against the incumbent. So, yes. the law does give a fuck.

They all limit our freedom of speech.

For different reasons that don't concern this thread.

Libertarians do not ignore laws they do not agree with. Libertarians thinks taxes are wrong, but they still pay them.

A judge's unconstitutional gag order is not "The Law." Gag orders can be lifted by higher courts.

Appeals courts temporarily lifts Trump's gag order as he fights the restrictions on his speech

A federal appeals court temporarily lifted a gag order on Donald Trump in his 2020 election interference case in Washington on Friday.

They can also be deliberately violated in an act of civil disobedience, by a person willing to accept the consequences.

When any of those happen, they are victories for free speech which is The Law. The Highest Law.

You want to be happy?... MSNBC just called today a disaster for Stormy and the prosecution and FOX news just reported that Braggs prosecutor Susan what's her name was a 5 figure donator to Biden in 2020... Oooops.....
Congress is now going to get involved....

What do you think will happen if he is convicted?...

Fine, suspended sentence, adult probation

I would hope that the Republican Party would do a sanity check and say, "Hey, the party of law and order can't run a convicted felon!"

But even if they don't, a lot of Americans who are on the fence certainly won't support a convicted felon.

Sure. You keep telling yourself that.

Whatever gets you through the night, bud.

 

[Care4all]

??? They had an agreement to pay him over a period of months. Are you quibbling over whether or not that is a retainer agreement?


That was "claimed" on the records you say were falsified?

That was their agreement, what's the falsification? That there was no agreement with their attorney?

The lawyer did the work, he paid the disbursement. They were paying their lawyer.

So the gist is your objection to Cohen's characterization on his invoices that it was a "retainer" agreement?

Allen Weisselberg directed Cohen on how to write his invoice for this cover-up.... Cohen did not create the scheme from what I've read...?

The court case has not fully gotten to all of this part yet, the 34 charges of business falsification and why each individual one is false, and proof trump and trump org. knew they were false, and connect an advantage for them to lie, and a whole bunch of other stuff has to be established in the next half of the trial...

all the dots have to be connected before the prosecution rests, that beyond a reasonable doubt, what the prosecution is claiming has been proven to the jury....and then there is the Defense side of the trial, any of their witnesses etc.

Yes, that can happen. So far the higher court has said it is good to go.

But hey, I am on board with this, everyone from this point on just gets to ignore any law they do not like.

I am going to make it to work today in record time!
