Remember John Edwards?

[Couchpotato]

Except when you are paying a mistress out of your own pocket to influence an election, and then falsify documents about it, it does become illegal.

Make sense now?

It's a misdemeanor. The only crime was the false business records which is a misdemeanor. The FEC looked at the Daniels payments and concluded it wasnt a violation of federal election law. Bragg and you are grasping at straws.

Make sense now?

 

[Marener]

It worked for Ashley.

Thats a lie spread around right wing media.

There’s no shame among these people.

 

[Marener]

Umm yeah he did which is why he was indicted.

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.

Trump used his money not donor money.

Nothing went through the campaign. The donors gave money to Edward’s staff who paid her expenses.

It had nothing to do with the campaign.

The DoJ did conclude it was a violation of federal election law. That’s why they charged Cohen with it.

At the time legal experts were debating whether what Edwards did was an actual crime and he orchestrated donor money to be not reported and then funneled to his mistress. He didnt even use his own money and it was borderline.

was he found guilty?

 

[Marener]

was he found guilty?

Nope. Nor was he found innocent. It was a mistrial.

It's weird how Joe's kids are so dysfunctional.

 

[Billiejeens]

I liked the name of the boat Edwards was cheating on. The Monkey Business

That was Gary Hart

 

[Marener]

It's weird how Joe's kids are so dysfunctional.

Its weird how right wingers don’t care about who they destroy in their quest for political power.

Atlantic City Casinos only made money until gambling was legalized across the country.

Trump was a disaster in AC from the beginning

 

[Billiejeens]

He didn’t falsify anything. Apparently you missed yesterday’s testimony. The accountant that did it admitted he did it and it was because of how Cohen worded the expense, not because Trump told him to.

You are thinking that facts will have any effect on these people?

 

[Billiejeens]

The Trump haters seem to have an issue understanding this.

Or anything.

Make sense now?

A. Misdemeanors are crimes

B. If that misdemeanor occurred to cover up another crime it gets elevated to a felony

Sorry if facts bother you

 

[Billiejeens]

It has to be. Because what he did with her is illegal.

PS. Think about the sentence you just typed. Boy how far have you sunk?

You are so fucked in the head.

 

[Billiejeens]

Don't know how Flimsy many of the cases may be,
But I would question the honesty of ANY one with that Huge number of negative actuations against them.
Many of them he is not even on trial for.

They are all political charges, not criminal.

A ******* Boo Boo.

Who the **** does the former fuckup hire?

6th grade boys??

Dude, just eat your dick and move on.

 

[Mac-7]

Not according to documents fuckup.

The documents are fucked up?

Hum

 

[otto105]

The documents are fucked up?

Hum

Again, not according to the documents presented.

Ashley was messed up in her childhood, before right wingers knew her dad was a pedophile.
