It's a sham, and you know it, and so does anyone with half a brain! Shame on you!Banging a Porn Star and buying her silence using business funds to hide it
Intentionally taking Top Secret Documents, refusing to return them and ordering others to hide them

Trump Gets A 6-Point Bump In Approval Ratings After Guilty Verdict: Poll
Donald Trump's conviction Wednesday in the Stormy Daniels 'hush money' trial has increased the former president's popularity. A recent 'snap poll' by Daily Mail has found that the former president is now even more popular among his supporters after the guilty verdict against him by the Manhattan...www.timesnownews.com

Actually no, I am laughing at how gloriously this sham trial has backfired. Trump raising lot's of money, it will absolutely be overturned on appeal, which will happen after the election, leading to the next republican candidate being elected, it is glorious. I look for many seats in the house and senate may swing on this also.
What specifically was a sham about those charges?

No question the prosecution of Trump was unique.The felony indictment of Trump was built upon a novel legal theory, tying a state crime to a federal statute the prosecutor has no authority to pursue charges on.Trump was found guilty in a sham case DA Bragg never should have prosecuted
Bragg's charges against the former president were a stretch, and legal experts were skeptical from the moment the Trump indictment was released.www.usatoday.com
Legal experts were skeptical of this theory from the moment the indictment was released.
"This explanation is a novel interpretation with many significant legal problems," wrote Fordham law professor Jed Handelsman Shugerman in The New York Times. "I could find no previous case of any state prosecutor relying on the Federal Election Campaign Act either as a direct crime or a predicate crime."
Donald Trump is officially the first president, acting or former, to be convicted of a felony. Such a historic moment for a young nation would ordinarily be quite somber, but both sides of the political aisle will be energized by the inflammatory result.
But today I want to consider if the investigation and trial should have even happened.
Now, I've written repeatedly that I'm not Trump’s biggest fan, so I'm sure people would expect me to be happy that he was convicted of 34 felony counts on Thursday in New York. But, sadly, I find myself writing in defense of one of America’s most difficult men to defend because I think the decisions to indict and prosecute Trump were woefully misled and likely sped us toward America’s political decay.
In 2016, in the days before the election that elevated him to the White House, Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, made a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, buying her silence about her 2006 sexual relationship with Trump.
Trump would then go on to win that election, with the Daniels story becoming public in 2018. He then lost his reelection bid in 2020 to Joe Biden while claiming voter fraud to pave the way for his current campaign.
Fast-forward to April 4, 2023, when Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to the payment, delivering on a significant campaign promise he made.
Misguided legal decisions elevated crimes to felonies
The felony indictment of Trump was built upon a novel legal theory, tying a state crime to a federal statute the prosecutor has no authority to pursue charges on.
This is not the foundation you want for something as monumental as the first conviction of a U.S. president to be built upon. Falsifying business records in New York could be treated as a misdemeanor crime. However, in connecting these records to the Trump campaign as “illegal contributions,” Bragg was able to elevate the charges to felonies.
What do Republicans do now?I don't like the questions Trump's guilty verdict forces conservatives to ask ourselves
This is a stretch. In order to elevate the charges, Bragg needed to prove that Trump’s actions were intended to defraud voters. No other reason, such as concealing such a scandalous story from his wife and children, applies. Bragg's argument is that Trump acted to conceal this information from voters through fraud, making these crimes felonious.
Legal experts were skeptical of this theory from the moment the indictment was released.
"This explanation is a novel interpretation with many significant legal problems," wrote Fordham law professor Jed Handelsman Shugerman in The New York Times. "I could find no previous case of any state prosecutor relying on the Federal Election Campaign Act either as a direct crime or a predicate crime."
Even legal scholars typically hostile toward Trump weighed in against the prosecution strategy. "Bragg has evidence that Trump acted to cover up a federal crime, but it is not clear that Bragg is allowed to point to a federal crime in order to charge Trump under the New York state law," wrote Vox senior correspondent Ian Millhiser.
DOJ declined to prosecute Trump, so Bragg decided to find a way
The reality is that Bragg has no authority to enforce federal crimes but was allowed to use a federal crime Trump was never convicted of to justify upgrading a state crime to a felony.
Trump is now a felon:Trump, guilty on all counts, carries a new label into 2024 election: Convicted felon
The Department of Justice and the Federal Election Commission have both declined to prosecute Trump over this matter, making Bragg’s decision even more baffling.
Enabled by an extremely sympathetic judge being assigned to the case, Bragg chose to hinge his prosecution on a federal crime the agencies governing over chose not to prosecute Trump for.
Sounds good to me, that Trump is not above the law. Hey, honey, try to remember I recommended probation and fines to cover the expense of prosecution and probation. Go find somebody clamoring for an orange jumpsuit behind bars pic. Or just take a couple of midol, get a hot water bottle and call it a night.
Home confinement and a gag order .... (a joke I hope)Trump chose to run for President while facing multiple criminal indictments
We should not accommodate him
People are convicted each and every day who are not my "political enemy."No, dear. Learn some history. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS when you have an unfair justice system which exists only to get at your political enemies.
I'm sad that Americans don't know this. Really, this is why America is dead.
When crook Biden managed to collect and store classifiedDifference is Biden turned in the documents when they were found (As did Mike Pence)
Trump declares he intentionally took the documents, refused to turn them over and took actions to conceal them.
In a year and a half of looking, Republicans have found no involvement of Biden
Biden quickly declared his documents as soon as they were discoveredWhen crook Biden managed to collect and store classified
docs in his Garage before he was Potus,did he keep them secure.
We all know and have seen how they were stored in his
Maryland garage in common cardboard boxes near his Green
vette.Very sloppy,unprofessional and dangerous.Plus were they
numbered or marked for security.Or could they easily come up
missing or stolen.
There is nothing to indicate the jury was some kind of lynch mob. He has not and will not be lynched. So, you just do not believe in law and order or the court system of Justice in New York or the United States. Get over it, and if you cheat on your wife, fking a porn star and want to pay to keep in quiet until after your election, do not claim it as a business expense, simultaneously saying it never happened and if it did, it was personal expense, and not meant to keep the cheating on wife with new babe quiet to influence an election, so not a campaign finance violation as well as a falsification of business records. It probably will not fly for you, either.Found Guilty by a lynch mob of progressive Democrats!
Yes. Ponzie scheme master mind crook. He's still dead, last I heard.Remember Bernie Madoff?
voters know it's lawfare Stalinist tactics from the left .Yidnar, the key words in your posted link are “among his supporters”. I suppose the guilty verdict will strip a comparatively few Trump votes from those undecided or less decided, but if he'd have been found guilty a year ago, there'd now be much fewer undecided and many, many more “anyone else but Trump" voters. Respectfully, Supposn
the jury pool pulled from radical left Manhattan ! a leftist judge ,DA ,and Prosecution team ? anyone with common sense knows what's going on .There is nothing to indicate the jury was some kind of lynch mob. He has not and will not be lynched. So, you just do not believe in law and order or the court system of Justice in New York or the United States. Get over it, and if you cheat on your wife, fking a porn star and want to pay to keep in quiet until after your election, do not claim it as a business expense, simultaneously saying it never happened and if it did, it was personal expense, and not meant to keep the cheating on wife with new babe quiet to influence an election, so not a campaign finance violation as well as a falsification of business records.
