“Senior officials” in DoJ? NYPD? I have to imagine this is about the Manhattan Stormy Daniels indictment.

This is Manhattan DA, not the feds. The feds declined to prosecute for this because he was President and decided not to resurrect the case when he left office. Bragg is prosecuting this now because the statute of limitations runs out this year. He's still working on a larger case regarding things like tax fraud and bank fraud, stuff the AG filed the civil suit over. But we don't know if that will lead to any charges.

Didn’t some prosecutors resign from his office because he wasn’t moving forward with the fraud case? I wonder why he’s going forward with this but not that.

I don't believe people realize what will happen if Trump gets arrested.  A lot of his supporters feel they have nothing to lose.  Plus, Trump himself is going to fuel the fire.  This is going to get very ugly....  

You could probably do a better job hiding the fact that you’re rooting for this to happen.

It doesn’t change the fact that this would be breaking with precedent to charge a president(current or former) over something like this . We correctly didn’t charge Clinton over Perjury and Trump shoudnt be charged over this .

There are only two instances a president should have been charged post ww2 :

Nixon - If the Sabotage of the Vietnam Peace talks came out

Trump - Jan 6th

Both instances were a president or presidential candidate flagrantly violating the national security of our nation for their own political interest

But I don’t think Nixon should have been charged over watergate, Clinton over Perjury or Bush over Iraq/Gitmo

Genuinely would like to know how you think Watergate isn't a violation of this standard.

Did watergate threaten the national security of our nation ?

His sabotage of the peace deal did because 1. Led to tens of thousands more of our troops dying

And Trump’s Jan 6th was an illegal attempt to overturn a free and fair election and led to the Capitol attack

Wasn’t Watergate an attempt (or rather a series of attempts) to interfere in a free and fair election? He didn’t have those guys break into the DNC for fun, did he?

34 counts is crazy. I don’t know what that would even mean.

A) are people who bet money on elections somehow smarter than the rest of us?

B) insofar as this increases his percentage chances of becoming president, how much of that is just massively boosting him in the primary?

Alvin Bragg needs weight watchers, that fat idiot didn't visit a buffet he didn't like


Like Mr. 270 pounds?

Why don’t we move the posts about this to thread about the actual scandal? We already have a classified documents thread.

I feel like Jack Smith really stepped in it by bringing the case in Florida and not Washington. Now Trump is going to get a jury of 12 MAGA cult members when his trial rolls around.

You do know that Biden beat Trump in Miami-Dade County?

And I’m sure the jurors will be people who are disconnected from the news to an almost offensive extent, like the Georgia forewoman.

The territory covered by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida voted Biden 55.42% - Trump 43.80%.

Good to know. Hopefully only jurors who aren't hyper pattisans are picked.

Anyone who could be described as “hyper partisan” wouldn’t make it to the jury pool.

The weird thing is that Michael Cohen literally has been prosecuted for LYING.

I will never truly forgive 46% of the electorate for voting for him a month after “when you’re a star they let you do it, grab them by the pussy”.

I don’t think this is a difficult case to build reasonable doubt about - all you need is to convince the jury that there’s a chance that there may have been some other motive for the payments besides the election - but the defense team has not done an amazing job thus far.
