Live Thread: Trump's hush money trial begins in NYC
libertybele:
Trump is absolutely correct and what is happening in the court system is alarming. Yes, I believe that this is nothing more than election interference and keeping him from campaigning. The left IS afraid of him.
However, I still fear that if they do incarcerate him, he'll never get out. **nononono*
One thing so far is for sure, Trump is not backing down.

'If Lightning Doesn’t Strike the Courthouse, I Will Be Very Surprised': Turley on Cohen Testifying
Susie Moore
5–6 minutes
We are well into the third week of the Manhattan criminal trial against former President Donald Trump. Readers will recall this is the case brought by District Attorney Alvin Bragg in New York state court alleging that Trump falsified business records reflecting payments made to his former attorney, Michael Cohen.
The heart of the prosecution's claim is that, rather than payments for legal services, those payments were actually reimbursement to Cohen for monies he expended securing a non-disclosure agreement from Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. As such, Cohen's testimony will be critical to the prosecution's case against the former president.
One problem with that: Michael Cohen. The disgraced former personal attorney for Trump has convictions for fraud and perjury on his resume — bona fides most attorneys look to avoid like the plague in any witnesses they intend to call to the stand. Given his history, attempting to weigh the credibility of Cohen's testimony under oath will approximate nailing Jell-O to the wall.
