Trump was never offered a chance to defend himself in court, as you well know. The determination of guilt was done via pre-trial motion.Yes….of course. This is a civil offense. If you go to court and are adjudged responsible for fraud….and the judge says your fine will be determined by a jury, that’s on you.,that you don't understand the difference between civil and criminal proceedings is no one’s fault but your own. .
Clinton learned that one didn't he?The other thing you don’t get is, a civil proceeding can turn criminal quickly if a party engages in perjury or fraud….something Trump doesn’t seem to get. He’s on the verge of being charge with perjury now…that’s due process.
Trump is not testifying under oath, he can't be charged with perjury for his statements outside the courtroom.
