'He wrote all of it down?': Prosecutors claim to have handwritten notes of Trump hush money scheme

[Toddsterpatriot]

Another stupid false equivalence.

Paying money to promote the election of a candidate is like paying money to promote the election of a candidate.

 

[WorldWatcher]

Bullshit. He includes a $40,000 payment for an expert witness on his $100,000 invoice, your putting down $100,000 as legal fees.

Believe as you wish.

Two things:

#1 Our contracted lawyers are honest and actually follow the law.

#2 Why would a lawyer want $100,000 to be charged as attorney fees on an invoice resulting in a 1099-MISC and then have to pay Income Tax and Self-Employment taxes on the amount. Then turn around and turn $40,000 over to an expert witness? Make no sense. It's better to invoice $60,000 for attorney fees and $40,000 for reimbursement of expenses and then pay Income Tax and Self-Employment taxes on $40,000 less.

Never done this before have you? The company is going to put $100,000 on the lawyer's 1099, no matter how they invoice it.. The lawyer only claims $40,000 as income,

A shout out to Big Al for keeping copious records of the hush money payment. The prosecution's case is made a little easier. It kinda makes a mockery of Trump's denial he didn't schtoink Stormy. Sorry Melania, you married an unfaithful pig of a man.

When Stormy tells us herself that it never happened and then thought she might be able to rake in some dough by telling the democrats she'd say it did happen, I believe what she said before greed raised it's ugly head. And besides, no one gives a shit. We want our borders back and affordable food and gas...

It is not extortion. Extortion requires force or threat of violence. The crime is blackmail, not extortion. However, whether she committed extortion or blackmail does not nullify Trump's crime of violating statue 175-10, Conspiracy to Promote and Prevent Election. It is simply a red herring.

you just admitted it was extortion because they threatened Trump with harm many times.

Looks like a witch-hunt to me.

Experts: Trump lawyer's Stormy Daniels grilling a "complete disaster"

Instead of key question "undermining Daniels, she got the better of the exchange,” says Norm Eisen.

www.salon.com

Hindsight is 2020, but as Judge Juan Merchan explained to Donald Trump’s defense team on Thursday: If you didn’t want a problematic alleged sexual encounter with your client openly discussed in a Manhattan courtroom, you shouldn’t have brought it up on the first day of trial by denying any such interaction ever took place.

And when Stormy Daniels began testifying, recounting in excruciating detail her claimed hotel-room rendezvous with the former president, it was the defense counsel’s job to stand up and say what they believed was out of bounds, Merchan said.

 

[surada]

Paying for silence has NEVER been illegal and it is a tactic used in DC on a daily basis.

Do you pay someone not to have sex with you?

Stormy Daniels says she was threatened over going public with Trump story

The adult film star said that the threat left her "rattled" but that she didn't go to the police because she was scared.

www.nbcnews.com

It’s unclear why InTouch didn’t publish the on-the-record interview with Clifford in 2011. Clifford was pushed into the spotlight after the Wall Street Journal reported last week that a lawyer for Trump arranged a $130,000 payment to Clifford just weeks before the 2016 presidential election to stay quiet about the affair.

It came out in 2011. Melania already knew about Stormy Daniels.

and she would have left him if it was real or not in their understanding, and her son would not be as close to his father if it were true.

Weird question that has nothing to do with anything.

 

[surada]

She's there for the money. Trump doesn't even know how old Barron is. You aren't a stupid guy.

Yeah....
Posted this already.
The appellate court was asking about the basic elements of fraud in this case. There is no plaintiff in this case except for the State. The business principals in question have not claimed any fraud or harm. In fact just the opposite. The judgement and fine of 350+ million dollars about to go up in a puff of smoke. Then comes the Disbarrment of Letitia for prosecutorial misconduct for her malicious prosecution and mis application of law.

then comes time for the lower court Judge to be examined....and it's not going to be pretty. This isn't an oops over a traffic violation case....this was a high profile case involving a former (and soon sitting) President involving a rather SOP real estate sale turned into a criminal fraud case by an overly zealous Prosecutor that he should have stopped dead and cold in her tracks. This is basic law....and neither followed any of it. RICO statutes could be applied here.

She was fired for being a non-stop lying propagandist.

From Fox!

How fucked up do you have to be to be fired FROM FOX?!?
