Quick, everyone give him some more money so he can fight the good fight. I’m sure he won’t use it on blow and hookers or whatever.
It’s high time he get kicked in the cunt.
And when you’re a star he lets you do it. You can do anything.
Whatever you want.
Kick him in the cunt. You can do anything.
He faces probation or up to four years in prison.
It’s been reported that only 10% of felons are given jail time for similar convictions. You have to wonder if such remarks after his conviction, indicating he’s learned absolutely nothing, may lead a judge towards the harsher punishment.
Also, let’s take a moment to applaud Alvin L. Bragg.
Alvin L. Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney, risked his reputation by indicting Mr. Trump in a case that some prominent Democrats said wasn’t strong enough to have brought against a former president. Instead, Mr. Bragg cemented his place in history as the first prosecutor to convict a former president.
Bragg should get a Presidential Medal of Freedom for his efforts.
Why did they say “false statement” when “lie” is much more efficient?
To call something a lie, the media outlet has to know, 100%, that the speaker knows it’s a lie. It’s difficult to impossible to meet that threshold in pretty much all cases.
A false statement is an untruth — a lie that could have resulted from an honest mistake, poor fact-checking, negligence, or just plain bad luck / stupidity.
People may say something that is known to them as the truth, but is not necessarily the objective truth as known by others. In that case, they would be making unwitting false claims. i.e. “it’s not a lie if you believe it”
Basically it comes down to liability. If a media outlet directly calls something someone says a lie, they’re going to get sued.
And Cheeto is a walking SLAAP lawsuit.
Throw this dipshit in prison, please.
Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up! He’s such a pathetic cuck, fuck trump
Mr. Trump, the former president and presumptive Republican nominee, derided the trial as “rigged” and made numerous false statements about what had taken place in court
Like he would even know what took place in court since he slept through half of it
He said himself he doesn’t even know what the charges are.
Personally I’d have asked my lawyer. Probably before 5 weeks of testimony, but definitely before the verdict.
He had the opportunity to testify if he thought any of the statements were false… he declined.
That’s all we need to fucking say - under oath he refused to refute the charges.
It kind of does say it all, but in a criminal trial, refusing to testify cannot be held against you under the 5th Amendment. In a civil trial, though, refusing to testify can be factored into reaching a verdict.
So yeah, while it may make you appear guilty as hell, refusing to testify in your criminal trial cannot be held against you.
That was hammered into us every time I had to report for jury duty.
Idealistically, you’re right. But it says volumes that someone would be willing to say a lot of shit in front of a camera (where the consequences are miniscule), but refuse to say the exact same shit in front of a judge (where the consequences are serious [assuming you’re not a “rich”
whiteorange cult leader]).Trump doesn’t testify for the one reason we all know: he’d incriminate himself faster than any piece of evidence that could ever be produced.
Oh, yeah. We all know. lol. But, for better or worse, he’s entitled to the same constitutional protections as the rest of us (despite the fact he routinely wipes his ass with it).
I’m sure the prosecutors will be bringing this up at the sentencing. I’m also sure the judge watched.
Since he has been convicted, everything T**** says in public can be used to influence his sentencing.
