Donald Trump seeks to toss New York hush money conviction hours after Supreme Court ruling

To the two hyper responsive children-I have things to do now so continue all by your lonesome to tilt at fact windmills with your feelings light sabers

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

So no answer but rather a feeling that the question is not posed the way you wish

Weather53 has no idea of what is going on.

Or....we're citing actual legal standard. And actual jury verdicts.

While you're citing your feelings about both.

Run along, champ. We'll be here if you ever want to offer your feelings as facts again.

 

[Skylar]

Weather53 has no idea of what is going on.

Not the slightest clue. He's made up imaginary 'requirements' for 175.10's application that exist no where in the law. And still doesn't quite understand that intent is a legal standard under 175.10's felony enhancement.

The prosecutor, judge and jury most definitely understand that intent is a legal standard.

Months ago, Trump's attorneys said that he, Trump, had immunity.

Merchan, without holding an evidentiary hearing, denied Trump had immunity.

Now, following the SCOTUS ruling on immunity, Trump has a good argument since no State court has any authority (as I said back on April 3) to determine immunity of a Federal official let alone a former President.

Most likely, Merchan will deny, then off to higher courts, maybe even some writs, and this should end up in Federal curt if Trump gets no satisfaction in State court.

​

Hours after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling about presidential immunity, former President Donald Trump on Monday evening sought to throw out his conviction in New York.​

​

Trump's lawyers said the verdict should be tossed because the jury saw evidence during trial that they believe should have been protected by presidential immunity, according to a letter to Judge Juan Merchan, described by sources to ABC News.​

​

The defense sought additional time to make their argument, a move that could delay Trump's sentencing, which is currently scheduled for July 11.​

​

There was no comment from Trump's legal team. The Manhattan district attorney's office declined to comment.​

​

A jury took less than 10 hours to convict Trump of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records about a hush payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels. Trump's then-lawyer, Michael Cohen, wired Daniels $130,000 and Trump reimbursed him in monthly installments disguised as routine legal expenses.​

​

Trump's defense team previously invoked a presidential immunity argument in an unsuccessful effort to limit evidence and attempt to delay the trial.​

​

In March, defense lawyers sought to exclude a government ethics form that disclosed Trump's reimbursement to Cohen as well as a series of tweets from 2018 that prosecutors alleged were part of a "pressure campaign" against Cohen.​

​

"Under these appropriate standards, President Trump's social media posts and public statements-while acting as President and viewed in context-fell within the outer perimeter of his Presidential duty, to which communicating with the public on matters of public concern was central," Trump's lawyers wrote in the March motion that the judge rejected the motion ahead of trial.​

Trump has a dogshit argument. Presidents have immunity for official acts. How are falsifying private business records with the intent to commit, aid, or conceal another crime an 'official act' of the President of the United States?

You think Trump's argument is strong because you want it to be. But its a pseudo-legal nonsense argument. Signing a private check against accounts in a private business are not 'official acts' within the constitutional authority granted the president under the constitution.

 

[Sunsettommy]

Falsifying business records with the intent to commit, aid or conceal another crime is most definitely not permitted. As demonstrated by the 34 felony convictions.

Good luck arguing in court that falsifying private business records was an official act as president.

LOL, he wasn't concealing anything........

 

[Captain Caveman]

Here’s the thing buddy brainless
Writing checks for NDA is ALREADY permitted whether its official or not

Here's the the thing brainless. sleeping with a porn actress is not an presidential undertaking, unless you can find that in the constitution. It's obvious your brain can only cope with one thing at a time, cheque/check, but when you encompass it all......

Get a strong coffee, sober up, and try again.

Yeah, he was, but you are unable to conceal how crummy your thinking is in this matter.

 

[Skylar]

Laughing.......what does 'NDA' stand for?

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

sunsettommy does not know what NDA stands for.

So I use the unusual word “brainless” in my addressing you and you respond with a copycat, not original thought of “no….you are brainless” That’s because You ARE Brainless child.

weather53 is using others' use of brainless before him.

This thread and comments about "standing" have me thinking...

Mr. Trump,
He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to

Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command

He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere man, can you see me at all
Nowhere man don't worry
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all 'til somebody else
Lends you a hand

Ah, la, la, la, la

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to

Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, The world is at your command

Ah, la, la, la, la

He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

You have to be really stupid to be a Democrat

You have to be really stupid to be a Democrat

You have to be real stupid to think that Trumps NY crimes have anything to do with presidential immunity

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Do not vote for him.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

We are lectured by our MAGA chums, led by an orange crime prophet, swept along by a fake alarmism, being overwhelmed by their irrational fears of a world only the Orange Prophet supposedly can stop. We should be compassionate with them, but not allow our sympathy to enable their neuroses.
