Trump Wins

[MagicMike]

Show me that anything he did resulted in less taxes being paid.

Who said anything about less taxes being paid Karen?
I have said he submitted fraudulent tax information by EVADING his responsibily to accurately report what those payments to Cohen were actually earmarked for. Especially in an election year when any campaign contribution over a certain amount is required to be reported as such.
At any rate your "FEELINGS" on any of this do not matter. The jury is deliberating already with specific instructions that have nothing to do with your delicate feelings.

The "unlawful means" that jurors could consider​

In order to find Trump guilty of falsifying business records in the first degree, jurors must conclude that he "conspired to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means."
They do not have to all agree on which type of "unlawful means." Merchan explained three that prosecutors put forth:

• Violations of the federal elections campaign act, again otherwise known of FECA
• Falsification of other business records
• Violation of tax laws

For the second one, falsification of additional records, the judge gave several examples of documents that can be considered, beyond the checks, vouchers and invoices at the center of this trial.
They include tax records issued by the Trump Organization to Cohen, bank records associated with two of Cohen's limited liability corporations and records related to a wire sent to Daniels' lawyer.

Tax fraud that resulted in the same or more taxes being paid?

OMG!

Sounds serious!!!

It wasn't a campaign contribution and the "falsification" didn't cheat the IRS.

They are representative of the jurisdiction where Trump did the crime

Next time Trump pays off a Porn Star, he should bring her down to Alabama

This is the type of justice African Americans must have received during not so good times. And we have African Americans repeating it as the ones pushing it.

How would you know?
You don't even know how to find information You demonstrated that several posts ago.

 

[Resnic]

You MAGAts should just RELAX.
There's a very good chance this is going to be a mistrial....a hung jury.
In which case we all get to start over and do it all again over the late summer/early fall.
Worst case scenario is he becomes a convicted felon but still only gets a slap on the wrist or even a short prison stint that will only represent a tiny fraction of the 136 year max he could have gotten.
Either way he's going to be the beneficiary of a two-tiered justice system that really never has "persecuted" or in any way "victimized" him....but in actuality has done nothing but coddled and favored him and treated him with kid gloves.

Starting off your posts with insults isn't exactly a way to get people to pay attention to what you say. I know I quit reading right after the first sentence. I can see why your post count vs reaction score is what it is.

If you have evidence the IRS was cheated, feel free to post it.
Or run away again......

 

[Missourian]

Are you seriously quoting Brian Krassenstien?

Careful... Your liberal is showing.

 

[Missourian]

Why is a mod posting spam? Since you did not comment, you should remove your post.

Hahaha...good luck with that.

DTMB enforces the rules ... he doesn't obey them.

You're a bafoon and an idiot.

 

[Missourian]

The prosecutor decides the possibility of a retrial. They have no reason to destroy Dems chances in November that have already been damaged. Retrying Trump again after losing their attempt will push Trump's popularity even higher!

Shit...being found guilty will likely secure him the election.

 

[Missourian]

You're a bafoon and an idiot.

I performed some magic on magicmike.

I clicked his ignore button and made him disappear.

 

[Billiejeens]

The next step is the DA's office deciding if it is worth retrying the case or not. As I said, the previous DA didn't even want to bring the case in the first place. If they don't get a guilty verdict, it's over. They will not want to go through it all over again, no matter how much TDS they have.

They already know it will be overturned on appeal.
So -
With a hung jury mistrial they have nothing to lose retrying him.

 

[MagicMike]

You're a bafoon and an idiot.

Your ignorant opinion is duly noted.

 

[Orangecat]

Great. An article that says if Trump is convicted it's all a lie but if Trump is not guilty it proves he is innocent. You could have written that BS yourself.

As much as you’re a jackass, I hope you don’t commit suicide when Trump wins.

 

[Orangecat]

You misspelled “dully” there, champ.

Who is running away?
I enjoy batting you around like my little mouse.
Have you always had reading comprehension difficulties that would explain why you can only understand the word "evasion" in one context?
There are adult basic education classes out there where you could (maybe) get some remedial help in reading adult level text.
Maybe you should look into that?

 

[jbrownson0831]

But Poopeypants dodged the draft even more times and you voted for him Tazbro.

 

[Billiejeens]

As much as you’re a jackass, I hope you don’t commit suicide when Trump wins.

Why?

 

[Billiejeens]

Nope

"Especially in an election year when any campaign contribution over a certain amount is required to be reported as such."

There is no limit on how much you can fund yourself,
