Trumps 34 "Felonies", but this is not Lawfare

Yes exactly. Don't you know that you determine the severity of a crime by adding the charges like it's a football score? Whoever gets the most wins a trip to jail.:p
Yep.

That is how it seems to work.

34 counts of falsifying business records makes you a worse person then someone with 33 charges of murder.

As I said . The false equivalency you mentioned isn't even a contender.😁

34 felonies for one statute expired misdemeanor.

The Dems got some basement bargain deals going for the end of "DEMOCRACY!"(tm)

Trump is a hazard to our Mockrarcy because if elected --- he will --- weaponize the DOJ against his political enemies!!!!!

Former President Donald J Trump faced 34 "Felony" Counts

Let's compare this to other dangerous criminals

The Manson Family: 27 counts (does this count as a sentence? asking for a friend)

"The defendants, who staged wild outbursts during their seven-month trial, sat passively as verdicts were returned on the 27 counts against them."
AP Was There: Cult leader Charles Manson and followers convicted for brutal California killings

The definition of financial fraudster Bernie Madoff faced 11 counts

"...Madoff with eleven felony charges including securities fraud, investment adviser fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, false"
United States V. Bernard L. Madoff And Related Cases

A top contributor to the democrat Party Sam Bankman Fried faced 7 counts

"On Thursday, Bankman-Fried was found guilty of two counts of wire fraud conspiracy, two counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, one count of conspiracy to commit commodities fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud."

Do any sane people believe that Trump more dangerous that the Manson Family?

Do any sane people believe that Trump's alleged misdemeanors, which passed the statute of limitations, was a greater crime than Madoff or SBF?

Did it ever occur to you the Conservative Right is getting EXACTLY what they deserve or the punishment earned?
 
The Manson Family killed fewer than 10 people. A half million Americans died because of Trump's failed covid response. And the economy was crashed. Trump is far more dangerous than the Manson Family.

Trump is also trying to overthrow the US Government.

I didn't realize that there was a score card, based on the number of charges, but is Trump more dangerous than the Manson Family - absolutely YES.
The Manson family was never running for political office (TTBOMK) and thus endangering the entire nation either.
 
And the felony was a Federal Election Act that occurred after the election,

Jun 3, 2024 — Former President Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records. Here's what to know about the charges.


Under New York law, falsification of business records is a crime when the records are altered with an intent to defraud. To be charged as a felony, prosecutors must also show that the offender intended to "commit another crime" or "aid or conceal" another crime when falsifying records.

In Trump's case, prosecutors said that other crime was a violation of a New York election law that makes it illegal for "any two or more persons" to "conspire to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means."
 
Yes, true.

Trump was charged with a felony, not a misdemeanor.



Not a "smorgasbord". The prosecutors attempted 4 but Merchan only approved of three.

Trump knew this. He says he didn't, but he is lying.



I think that is typical for prosecution.

One charge for each count of business records falsified.


Your denial of facts means nothing to the courts.
What exactly was the underlying felony that transformed the misdemeanors? You don’t even know to this day.

That’s one reason this thing will be tossed.
 
The statute of limitations didn't expire for falsifying business records in the first degree because that is a felony.

If he was charged with falsifying business records in the 2nd degree, a misdemeanor, then you and Dercshowitz would be correct.

Why do you think Trump and his team didn't bring it up pretrial?

Do you think they were too stupid to consider the statute of limitations?

Oh, I mean no disrespect, but the above in bold is is probably the most ridiculous false equivalence I have ever seen in a political thread.
Why do you think the feds refused to take the case in the first place?
