A prosecution so crooked it would make Stalin blush! ALAN DERSHOWITZ reveals the exact courtroom moment he knew Trump was doomed to a guilty verdict

Nor did this case seem to be based on the evidence or the law. In fact, I saw no credible evidence of a crime.

The case brought by District Attorney Alvin Bragg – elected to 'Get Trump' – was so woefully weak on the facts and the law that it makes Trump's conviction even more dangerous.

It now means that future prosecutors can concoct extremely weak cases against political opponents and be assured of a conviction – albeit if they just pick the right venue and select the right jurors.

This trial was without precedent.

Never in American history has anyone ever been prosecuted for – as Trump's defense argued was the case – erroneous bookkeeping made by a company underling who failed to disclose the payment of 'hush money'.

What there is plenty of precedent for is... the payment of hush money.

DA Bragg tried desperately to find a crime with which to charge Trump, he failed to find one. So Bragg went a dangerous step further than Stalin ever did: he made up a crime.

"Trump's legal team is expected to try to stop the Jan. 10 sentencing, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News. His lawyers intend to ask an intermediate New York appellate court to intervene and stop the sentencing hearing from going forward, the sources said.

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung, in a statement, called Merchan's ruling "a direct violation of the Supreme Court's Immunity decision and other longstanding jurisprudence."

"President Trump must be allowed to continue the Presidential Transition process and to execute the vital duties of the presidency, unobstructed by the remains of this or any remnants of the Witch Hunts. There should be no sentencing," the statement said."

A few months back
NEW YORK, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's lawyers pushed on Monday to transfer to federal court the case in which he was convicted in a New York state court on charges involving covering up hush money paid to a porn star, a move that would give him the ability to end the prosecution if he regains the presidency.

His lawyers renewed the request in a brief filed with the Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals as they appealed U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein's Sept. 3 ruling rejecting the shift to federal court. Trump was convicted in May of 34 felony counts of falsifying documents.

Almost no chance exists for Xfr of the case to federal court.

Mike Davis:

These partisan Democrat operatives in these prosecutors’ offices, in these judges’ chambers, can’t get this through their thick skulls, that the American people are tired of this unprecedented, Republic ending, lawfare and election interference. They’re going to learn this the hard way, because guess what? Judge Merchan is going to sentence President Trump on January 10th, if the Supreme Court doesn’t stop him before that, which the Supreme Court absolutely should do

He’s put in this order today. He’s probably not going to put President Trump in prison, but he’s going to label him a convicted felon before he goes into the White House.

I would say this to these Democrat partisan operatives, right now, you guys are the hunters. And guess what? On January 20th at noon, you’re going to become the hunted, because I am going to push very hard from the Article III project, very publicly, for the Trump 47 Justice Department to open a criminal probe on all of these Democrat operatives who have waged this unprecedented lawfare.

And this Special Grand Jury down in Fort Pierce, Florida, should investigate all of these Democrats, whether it’s Alvin Bragg, Tish James, Fannie Willis, Judge Merchan, Matthew Colangelo, Andrew Weissmann.

The American people have supported all of it.

The election of Trump is separate from the public supporting the trials.

What you can say is that it is sad the public would elect a felon over Biden.

Biden didn't run for President dumb-ass.

You overestimate the size.of your cult.

Quite the opposite. You have underestimated the number of NORMAL people.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

The Stalinist party sure does love its lawfare.

I just can't wait until it's turned on them.

 

[DBA]

Trump is not a true convicted felon in any reasonable person’s mind. Just because an extremely biased NY city judge and jury twisted the law to make it so doesn’t mean it is legit. There are only a handful of leftist wacko places in this country where this trial would have even taken place, much less resulted in a conviction.

Biden didn’t run, but both he and Harris would have been absolutely horrible choices for President, unless you are not a fan of the US being successful.

 

[DBA]

You think Trump & MAGA is normal? Then there's someting wrong with you.

Yes, the majority of people that voted for Trump are normal. Soccer moms are normal. They don’t want men showering with their daughters. That is NOT normal.

Scotus ruling is for official acts.
So how is falsification of business records as a candidate an official act?

Didn't he write the checks when he was president?

 

[Nostra]

That's it then. The Democrats' lawfare has failed. Trump was put in the White House again by the American People and that's exactly where he is going.

One last desperate attempt to stay in the spotlight from this hack.

The good news is Trump can now appeal this shitshow and let a real court bitchslap this moron.

 

[Nostra]

The orange subhuman turd will still enter office as the fist POTUS in history who's a convicted felon.

And of course the orange subhuman criminal scumbag felon is ranting & raving about it.

Making MAGA idiots proud.

Trump destroyed you.

You are nothing more than a steaming pile of butthurt.

I'm sure a grand jury will question this judge over the Demcorats lawfare campaign against Trump, the rule of law, and the American People.

Which won't happen.

Want to bet? Name your price

Someone be sure to bump this thread when this is thrown out on appeal.
