There is nothing standard about this prosecution. Read the article and try to comprehend the lengths these twisted b*stards are going to turn a misdemeanor, at best, into a felony. And yes, it’s only because it’s Trump.The current trial is mainly about falsifying documents. A pretty standard offence, and pretty standard prosecution normally - hundreds a year. It's only because it's Trump we're hearing about it.
Others have jumped in and answered your response to my post above but I’ll answer you myself anyway -( as I’m sure you knew I would )Except it isn't. None of these charges have precedence. We live in a country that uses case law where each charge is reference by the previous trial as a guide to guilt, sentencing etc like the USA. Even the charge relating to the Classified Documents had previous offenders but no charges. If you cant see this as a fit up job i cant help you.
The American Constitution was put together by a group of people who could not envisage the arrival of a, Assault Rifles and b, a president who has no honour, ethics or moral code, and who will shamelessly take advantage of a system built on honesty.Others have jumped in and answered your response to my post above but I’ll answer you myself anyway -( as I’m sure you knew I would )
The reason imo why many of the charges have no precedence is this is the first time in American history that criminal charges have been brought against an ex-American President for crimes he committed while President including interfering with the peaceful transfer of power. It is the first time the issues of complete immunity for ex-Presidents has been tested by the courts against the interpretation of the Constitution.
These cases raise all sorts of precedence, including how Trump himself is responding to the charges.
He is so narcissistic he does not even realise the legal jeopardy he could put himself in if he insists on taking the stand, which apparently he wants to - the gloves will be off and all sorts of prior behaviour and previous allegations will be thrown at him to discredit him as a reliable witness in his own case. He thinks he will be able to take the stand and use it like one of his podiums at a campaign rally. He won’t be able to and if he tries, the Judge will tear him into shreds.

Well said.and fox news is an impartial or credible source? That article reads like its written by someone on Trumps team. This NY prosecution is correct and is around falisfying business records. ie were payments made to Stormy Daniels as hush money, run through his business as legal expenses, 34 times. Fairly straightforward question of law if you ask me. If it occured in this country or to someone of similar wealth and stature you would be more than happy to see them tested in court too, I don't see your deliniation.
You can call the prosecutor any name you like, and regurgitate soundbites Trump has given you, especially the one he's fed you that "people are only after him as he's Trump", but Trump creates this circus, he generates these soundbites, he feeds you the lies so many times you think they are truths, he creates this noise that you repeat.....hopefully the only way down for this man is to play him at his own game....which is what is happening here....There is no place in society for someone like this. None. He is devisive, lying, mysogynistic and a fool courting those disengaged enough to join his circus. The largest shame is that people are hoodwinked by him and think he represents them. More alarming is we as a society are allowing our children and young people to see behaviour like this. We see insurrection, disprespect of social and government institutions (capital hill), manipulation of the supreme court and most legal constructs, disrespect of people (buildng a wall), women (you pull them by their p*ssies) and womens bodies (roe vs wade) and if this trial and subsequent ones prove it, breaking of the law. For some to accept that all that is ok, in the name of something larger, is the biggest shame here, when it is far far far from ok and will take generations if ever to recover from.

Yes, of course Fox News is a credible source, every bit as much as CNN, NY Times, etc. You’re still missing the point though. First off, the statute of limitations had already expired, they somehow conspired to extend it. Secondly, they are turning a misdemeanor into an as yet unspecified felony, which is not in the state’s jurisdiction to do so. The case had already been tossed out by the FEC, the DOJ, and the previous Manhattan DA, as there just wasn’t enough evidence to prosecute it.and fox news is an impartial or credible source?

Grifters gonna grift
Why is he sucking a massive, invisible cock?
Too early to say what his motivation was, reportedly he dropped a bunch of these before doing it:One of Trump's supporters (I assume) has set himself on fire outside the courthouse in protest.
Shows the depth of lunacy amongst his supporters. Trump will probably derive a perverse sense of pride at such an extreme display of devotion to him whilst at the same time manipulating the narrative to blame Biden for the man's injuries...."if corrupt Biden hadnt had these charges brought against me that loyal patriot would not have felt compelled to set himself on fire"
Nearby, a pamphlet was visible that referred to "evil billionaires" and called on people to "expose this corruption." The portion that was visible to a Reuters witness did not mention Trump.
So is claimed, but why would he do that? What I heard he said he needed more time to go through the boxes for them.Because the offenders co-operated and returned the documents. Rather than lying about them, and secretly trying to move them.
In all seriousness, this is classic bully behaviour. And that’s all Trump ultimately is, a bully picking on those he deems lesser than him. And he attracts bullies who feel emboldened to also bully others they deem somehow lesser.
