By contrast, ID is required in North Dakota. If you are resident and have been gainfully employed for 30 days, you are supposed to have a North Dakota Driver's license.

Trump says he can't be with wife Melania on her birthday due to 'rigged' trial

Former President Trump wished his wife Melania a "very happy birthday" on Friday morning and complained that he could not spend the day with her because of his "rigged" trial.

Trump spoke to reporters moments before he entered the courtroom for the continuation of his criminal trial on charges of falsifying business records.

"I want to start by wishing my wife Melania a very happy birthday. It'd be nice to be with her but I'm in a courthouse for a rigged trial," Trump said.

The former president and presumptive Republican nominee for 2024 said yesterday's proceedings went "very well" and that his trial "should be over."

"I think we have a judge who will never allow the case to be over in a positive way, he's highly conflicted," Trump said, taking a shot at presiding Judge Juan Merchan.

He also commented on Thursday's Supreme Court hearing on his claim of presidential immunity, calling his attorney's arguments "brilliant."

"I listened to it last night, I thought it was really great. I thought the judge's questions were really great," Trump said. "All presidents have to have immunity, it has nothing to do with me," he asserted.

Trump told reporters he will return to Florida after the trial warps up today to be with his wife.

Trump compliments prosecution's first witness in criminal trial: 'very nice'

Former President Donald Trump lauded the first witness in his trial in Manhattan, former tabloid publisher David Pecker, as a "nice guy" earlier Thursday ahead of court.

"He’s been very nice. David’s been very nice. He’s a nice guy," Trump told the media while meeting with construction crews in the city early Thursday morning.

Pecker is the prosecution team's first witness in the NY v. Trump case, where the 45th president is facing 34 charges of falsifying business records.

Pecker is the former CEO of American Media Inc., the parent company of publications such as the National Enquirer, who has known Trump stretching back to the 1980s. The former media publisher took the stand earlier this week, where he testified regarding "catch and kill schemes" to allegedly bury negative information about Trump ahead of the 2016 election.

"Catch-and-kill" schemes are understood as tactics used by media and publishing companies to buy the rights of a person’s story with no intention of publishing it. The NY v. Trump case specifically revolves around a payment of $130,000 given to former pornographic actress Stormy Daniels by former Trump personal attorney in 2016 to allegedly silence her claims she had an extramarital affair with Trump in 2006.

Pecker testified Thursday that he first heard of Daniels' claims of a sexual affair with Trump after the notorious "Access Hollywood" tape was unearthed ahead of the election in 2016. He said that Daniels was selling rights to her story for $120,000, which Pecker said the media company could not afford.

"I am not a bank," Pecker said he told National Enquirer editor Dylan Howard of the tip and sale of Daniels' story. Howard then told Pecker he would contact Cohen about the matter, Pecker said.

Prosecutors allege that after Cohen paid Daniels in exchange for silence on the alleged affair, Trump fraudulently logged reimbursements to the personal lawyer as legal expenses. Prosecutors in the case are trying to prove that Trump falsified business records in "furtherance of another crime." The DA's office said the other crime is the violation of a New York law against "conspiracy to promote or prevent election."

Each co-host of the program spoke briefly on his or her thoughts on the high court’s hearing earlier today. When it was Jesse Watters’s turn, he remarked that if the court did not uphold the concept of presidential immunity, he would “get a lawyer” and sue Joe Biden for the reported deaths of thousands of birds from wind turbines and other perceived transgressions since Biden took office, adding, “…and then I’ll sue Obama for forgery because we all know the birth certificate wasn’t real.”

Goose sauce would become gander sauce. If Trump can be frivolously prosecuted, then so also could LIEden, OhBummer!, and Clinton. And might cabinet members also become prosecutable, perhaps HilLIARy?

I don't think the USSC would give Trump the absolute immunity the lying MSM falsely claim Trump seeks. I think they will limit immunity to what Trump seeks, for acts that were part of official duties, and give some guidelines/limits/definitions of what are official duties.
