Stormy Daniels Changes Her Story AGAIN?

[struth]

Trump asked Cohen to do that? That's not what Trump's lawyers are saying. That's the prosecution's argument.

um yeah they are....and if that's the state's case, well....it's not a crime. Creating a NDA is not a crime

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Yeah, the FEC investigated and cleared Trump of any wrong doing.

Again with making shit up.

The FEC dropped the investigation.

"In December 2020, the F.E.C. issued an internal report from its Office of General Counsel on how to proceed in its review. The office said it had found “reason to believe” violations of campaign finance law were made “knowingly and willfully” by the Trump campaign."

F.E.C. Drops Case Reviewing Trump Hush-Money Payments to Women (Published 2021)

The case had examined whether Donald Trump violated election law with a $130,000 payment shortly before the 2016 election to a pornographic-film actress by his personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.

[Procrustes Stretched]

You really need to stfu.

Cohen was convicted for it. So yeah, what he did was illegal.

YES, they dropped it! IE, there was nothing to prosecute.

geez, how is this so hard to grasp?

 

[Faun]

How Cohen acted was, but what Trump wanted done wasn't, nor was it illegal to pay a legal bill went it sent to you.

Cohen was a bad lawyer, that did his job poorly, and even criminally.....that doesn't fall on his clients

Trump wanted to pay her $130,000 to benefit his campaign. That was asking his attorney to commit a crime.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

um yeah they are....and if that's the state's case, well....it's not a crime. Creating a NDA is not a crime

Making shit up again? No one is claiming creating an nda is a crime.

you wrote: "there is nothing illegal about a client wanting a NDA. Trump asked an attorney to do that. The attorney billed him, he paid his bill." That is not what Trump's legal team is saying. If Cohen was on retainer, he doesn't then bill anyone. You are again making teh prosecution's argument.

D'Oh!

 

[Man With A Plan]

Cohen was convicted for it. So yeah, what he did was illegal.

You can keep claiming that, Faun but what Cohen did time in prison for was tax evasion. The other charges would have gotten him a mild slap on the wrist and a little fine.

The FEC doesn't prosecute. Dropping is not saying nothing there or innocent. The FEC

the election commission — split evenly between three Republicans and three Democratic-aligned commissioners — declined to proceed in a closed-door meeting in February. Two Republican commissioners voted to dismiss the case while two Democratic commissioners voted to move forward. There was one absence and one Republican recusal.
That decision was announced on Thursday.
Two of the Democratic commissioners on the F.E.C., Shana Broussard, the current chairwoman, and Ellen Weintraub, objected to not pursuing the case after the agency’s staff had recommended further investigation.
“To conclude that a payment, made 13 days before Election Day to hush up a suddenly newsworthy 10-year-old story, was not campaign-related, without so much as conducting an investigation, defies reality,” they wrote in a letter.

The Republican commissioners who voted not to proceed with an investigation, Trey Trainor and Sean Cooksey, said that pursuing the case was “not the best use of agency resources,” that “the public record is complete” already and that Mr. Cohen had already been punished.
“We voted to dismiss these matters as an exercise of our prosecutorial discretion,” Mr. Cooksey and Mr. Trainor wrote.

No one said he was.

hahah, well the State's evidence thus far, one of their star witnesses, Hope Hicks, testified to just the opposite, he was worried about his wife and family if the story came out.

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4642409-hope-hicks-offers-dramatic-testimony-in-trump-trial-five-takeaways/

Hicks, while being questioned by prosecutors, said that Trump was worried how the story “would be viewed by his wife,” Melania.

Later, when the defense questioned Hicks, she expanded on the point, saying that Trump “really, really respects” what Melania has to say; “I think he was just concerned of what her perception of this would be.”


That was literally the State's own witness

 

[Frankenstein]

You really need to stfu.

Oh then read 191 it describes you to a tee

 

[Faun]

YES, they dropped it! IE, there was nothing to prosecute.

geez, how is this so hard to grasp?

Which is irrelevant to this case. Just face it, you're never going to understand this.

trollboi, go away

D'Oh!

what the f are you talking about? of course a lawyer, even on retainer will have a bill for work. He submitted the bill

Trump never denied paying the bill. There is nothing illegal about paying a lawyer

 

[struth]

Which is irrelevant to this case. Just face it, you're never going to understand this.

Oh no doubt, I'll never understand your make believe.

And other witnesses are testifying how Trump tried stalling the payment to Stormy until after the election and then not pay her. It's going to be up to the jury to decide which to believe. In favor of the prosecution is the jury also gets to consider the alleged affair occurred in 2006 and Trump didn't buy her silence until 10 years later and 2 weeks before his election.

 

[struth]

The FEC doesn't prosecute. Dropping is not saying nothing there or innocent. The FEC

The FEC certainly does enforce campaign fin laws, that's why the DNC and Clinton, for example, were fined for violating the law by the FEC

If they thought they had a case against Trump they would of brought it
