What does Trump and John Edwards have in common?

I love the spin here. Truly a phenomenon. I would never vote for Uber wealthy men such as those named in the OP.

I don't think you are thinking this out. If President Trump wasn't wealthy, he wouldn't be equipped to defend himself against his well funded Leftist Elitist enemies and would have been run out of office even before he got in.

The courts and legal system have been weaponized by the Far Left, and it cost money to stand your ground if you want to make real changes.

Gov. Sarah Palin was forced out of office in Alaska, because of scores of Fake "ethics violations" several years ago. She had to earn money to pay the lawyers.

I don't see it your way. Just saying. I don't trust Uber wealthy people politics aside. They cannot share my ideals.

The bigger mystery is what happened to Finger Rapist *Joe’s sexual misconduct charges. The dems kept them quiet when FRJ was a senator. Then the believe all woman dems and their media allies swept them under the rug when he ran for president. They lied to you rubes by omission. You leftists love to be lied to.

It isn't a mystery.
Tara Reade's attorney quit, because of her lying.
The prosecutors said she lied in her testimony and her story changed many times, but decided not to prosecute her, for some reason.

Well, if Trump's case ends up in court with a hung jury, and the government reprosecutes, then you'l have an argument but until then I am not sure what the point is.







From what I can see the Clinton Campaign and DNC were charged and they settled.

DNC, Clinton campaign agree to Steele dossier funding fine

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee have agreed to pay $113,000 to settle a Federal Election Commission investigation.

1) I am not making an argument...the Feds didn't charge Trump...they knew this was a nothing burgetr
2) correct, the FEC charged Clinton, they didn't Trump

Again...you are making my case for me. The NYC DA is a on a political witch hunt trying to do what the Feds said wasn't a crime to begin with

Former presidential candidate John Edwards was accused of funneling nearly $1 million in donor contributions to support his pregnant mistress and criminally charged with a campaign finance violation. Here's how the case played out.

A grand jury indicted Donald Trump, likely over a "hush-money" payment to Stormy Daniels. A similar case unfolded in 2011 against John Edwards.

www.yahoo.com

Remember John Edwards, the VP candidate with John Kerry for the Democrat Presidential candidate? He was accused of the same crime Trump is regarding Stormy Daniels. For you see, he too had a mistress he was financing using questionable funds.

• John Edwards was charged with campaign finance violations in 2011 related to his 2008 presidential run.
• He was accused by the DOJ of funneling nearly $1 million in donations to his pregnant mistress.
• Edwards was acquitted of one campaign finance violation charge — the others were dropped.

As an indictment looms against former President Donald Trump for an alleged hush-money payment made to Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about their affair, legal experts are speculating what the outcome will be if Trump is charged in relation to the campaign finance violation.
The last time a presidential candidate was criminally charged for alleged campaign finance violations, John Edwards faced up to 30 years in prison and $1.5 million in fines.

So why did they drop the charges against Edwards? Cuz he is a democrat, stupid.

Legal experts regarded the case as shaky because the charges were not based on a specific federal statute, but an advisory opinion written by the FEC that argued gifts made to political candidates should be considered campaign contributions, CNN and The Washington Post reported at the time.

After nine days of deliberations, a jury acquitted Edwards of one charge of accepting an illegal donation, ABC News reported, but was hopelessly deadlocked on the other five counts, resulting in a mistrial. The Department of Justice chose not to re-try Edwards, Politico reported.

"It's not illegal to be a pig," said Brett Kappel, a Washington campaign finance expert told The Washington Post at the time the charges were brought. "Is what Edwards did slimy? Absolutely. Everyone will agree it was reprehensible. But it's not a crime."

Well, I know they don't have in common the falsifying of business records.

Yeah, despite the desperate spinning dembots about Howard stern interview the reality. As your link highlights, is at best he shared some luke-warm support, after xiden had already voted to authorize it and bush went back in
