Can we set the record straight while seeking to determine who is responsible for what cases? Sure, I’ll try …. not that it’ll do any good, given the numbskulls whose vacuous brains I need to probe.
Donald Trump is now a convicted felon. A jury of 12 of his peers delivered a stunning unanimous decision convicting him on 34 counts associated with his hush money payment to Stephanie Clifford, aka Stormy Daniels. She and the former POTUS had a fling in a hotel room in 2006 and Trump paid her to keep quiet about an event he denies even occurred.
The jury believed her and not him. What does Trump do in response? He blames President Biden for bringing the case against him. He and his allies blame the Justice Department for “weaponizing” its resources to “get” the former POTUS.
He calls Judge Juan Merchon everything but the spawn of Satan. He says the judge is corrupt.
Let’s hold it for a moment. This case was brought by the state of New York. He was prosecuted by an elected district attorney who does not answer to the DOJ, let alone the president. This case was handled under the rule of law. It was done properly. The jury heard the evidence and then delivered its verdict.
I cannot help but wonder whether the former Liar in Chief is cutting his own throat by trashing the very judge who, on July 11, could sentence him to prison. The judge vows to follow the law.
However, he is a human being.
What was the ACTUAL crime? To date, NO ONE has been able to name the ACTUAL crime, including prosecutors and the judge.
Even CNN has stated that at most what has been stated would only be a misdemeanor and would have reached the statute of limitations.
I didn’t think you could name the ACTUAL crime either. If a judge or prosecutor can’t, a blogger certainly can’t. I have no doubt this will be overturned.
