trump shouldn't be charged with a crime in the hush money case

@ILikePie5
So when the government convicts a Mafia boss by flipping a lower level gangster, one who is a murderer even,  those convictions are not credible?

I thought conservatives were tough on crime

That was one of the charges. And the perjury was for  lying to Congress to protect Donald Trump. 

Why does Trump hire so many people who are convicted felons?

Remember the good ole days when redneck high school dropouts just sat around in their pickup trucks drinking RC Cola and eating moon pies?

Then FOX News came along and these idiots could “get informed” by women in low cut dresses and high heels instead of having to read a newspaper or watch Walter Cronkite.

Now these idiots think they are equipped to have an opinion on government and politics. And social media helps these idiots get together and spread the nonsense even further.

In New York where the crime "allegedly" occurred there is a 2 year statute of limitation. Read a book.
Oh really? Which book says there is a 2 year statute of limitations? When did you read this book? When did you graduate Law School? 

Is the limit the same for all levels of crime? What are the charges against Trump? Do you think you know the laws better than the District Attorney of New York?

“Cohen and Daniels have each testified before the grand jury. Evidence bolstering Cohen’s testimony includes emails, texts and other documents gathered during a search of Cohen’s electronic devices, a source familiar with the investigation told USA TODAY”

“Trump could be charged with falsifying business records in combination with another criminal violation. Falsifying business records is a misdemeanor, but it would become a felony if linked to a second crime”

What you have incorrect is Michael Cohen paid Stormy Daniels with his own money. Apparently he took the money from his retirement funds. Then Trump paid him back over time with a series of payments from the Trump Organization and reported those payments as “legal fees”

The purpose of these payments was ostensibly to aid his 2016 Presidential Campaign 

So, Trump illegally took a campaign contribution from Cohen by failing to disclose it to the FEC. 

Trump illegally classified the payment as a business expense to the IRS

These are the crimes Trump and Cohen committed. Cohen already did jail time for his crime. Trump was shielded from prosecution by virtue of his status as President. Now he must be accountable to the law.

Trump is probably guilty of this crime, given his attitude. 
Trump is guilty of several crimes but because of idiot republican politicians and voters it has been difficult to hold him accountable.

They shouldn't because they didn't prosecute him within the 2-year maximum time. 
They are still going to try, but it won't work.
No. He couldn’t be charged as President. Then a new DA wanted to do his own investigation. There is no 2 year statute of limitation

Trumpers tend to be tattooed, bearded, wear a ball cap and drive a pickup truck. These guys have status anxiety and fear being unable to do as well as their parents did. They don’t understand why the country doesn’t need them so much anymore and why they can’t afford to buy a home.

Look at all those white faces in the crowd on January 6. So sad.

Looking back at the statistics,  the people involved on Jan. 6, the most notable is how many insurrectionists came from counties that lost their white, non-Hispanic population.

That BusinessInsider article makes conservatives look like dummies. Thanks for the proof LCpl!

Being scared can make you more conservative. Decades of research have shown that people get more conservative when they feel threatened and afraid.

On the other hand, feeling safe and endowed with strength might make you lean a little more liberal than you otherwise would.

People embrace political conservatism (at least in part) because it serves to reduce fear, anxiety, and uncertainty; to avoid change, disruption, and ambiguity; and to explain, order, and justify inequality among groups and individuals," the researchers said. Pussies

“conservative readers tended to say they'd rather visit Times Square than the Metropolitan Museum of Art” Lol!

“ A Pew Research Center study from 2014 showed that liberals were more likely than social conservatives to describe themselves as compassionate, trusting, upbeat, and optimistic, while conservatives were more likely to say they were people of honor, duty, religion, and proud to be American”
. - Oh brother. Trump is a Draft Dodger who mocks religious people. But he’s a bigot so they love him anyway!

“Iowa already has the 10th-worst “brain drain” in the country, according to an analysis of federal data by economists at the University of North Carolina, the W.E. Upjohn Institute, the University of Michigan and the University of Chicago, which shows the percentage difference between the number of college graduates Iowa produces versus the number of college graduates living in the state at minus-34 points”


As Iowa wack jobs push back against equal rights and liberal policies, (the state legislature recently tried to ban same sex marriage) educated people and young people leave the state.

Your ignorant bitch about Trump has nothing to do with a decades old case involving OJ, where fucking every person on the planet knows he’s guilty as fuck!
Oh so it is different when it’s a black man. He’s guilty even if you can’t prove it because every person just knows he’s guilty. But for Trump, it’s different, it needs to be proven beyond believing your own eyes and ears.

Roosevelt is our resident Trump hater. He’s not going to change. Welcome to the Site!
Americans who supported Trump are permanently tainted and damaged citizens. You are like the people who embraced the confederacy during the Civil War.

You will have to live with the consequences for the rest of your lives. Some will deny they ever supported Trump. Others will double down and insist Trump was a great President. But just like the Americans who tried to maintain a system of slavery, you will need to fabricate lies and an alternative narrative in order to live with yourselves and mask your shame.

Just because a couple idiots got convicted isn’t proof of an insurrection involving hundreds upon hundreds of people who casually strike through the capital. Even being peacefully escorted by police. 
It is proof. But they are not the top leaders of the insurrection. They were field grade leadership. 

I know you’ve seen the video of people smashing windows, pushing over barriers and assaulting police. 

“According to a 2016 USA Today analysis, Donald Trump and his businesses were involved in 3,500 legal cases in U.S. federal and state courts during the previous three decades, an unprecedented number for a U.S. presidential candidate. Of the 3,500 suits, Trump or one of his companies were plaintiffs in 1,900; defendants in 1,450; and bankruptcy, third party, or other in 150.[1] Trump was named in at least 169 suits in federal court.[2] In the 1,300 cases where the record establishes the outcome, Trump settled 175 times, lost 38, won 450, and had another 137 cases end with some other outcome. In the other 500 cases, judges dismissed plaintiffs' claims against Trump.[1]”

Why do you think he was hit so hard while in the White house and outside of it still today? 
Because he was a corrupt subversive who violated the law, including the constitution. His own people know that including the people he enlisted to work for him.

That’s a lie. Not even close. It’s not political theatre. Trump is a fuck up.

Political targeting.
That’s nonsense. You have to chose between two possibilities. Trump is a liar. (He has been a liar his entire life) or the United States is a Banana Republic.

Only a moron would choose the former.

I also looked up who all gets hit by tax fraud.  The site stated only around 2000 people per year.  Hmmm. . . Doesn't this look like Trump has been targeted?  Also, tax fraud is basically cheating on your taxes, so I think everyone can be guilty of this at one point or another.  I am not saying fraud is okay, I'm saying that if they look deep enough, they probably can bust you on something.
There’s a difference between cheating on your taxes and committing tax fraud. Fraud requires a well documented, concerted intentional effort by the accused to defraud the government. It’s obvious the fraud at the Trump Organization was systemic, deliberate and extensive.

Before I go into my list, I want you to look into Bush, Clinton, Obama and Biden.  Then tell me that none of them could never be hit with any of these things.  They all have the same background but they are only targeting Trump. 
That’s bullshit. That’s why none of there people have been indicted. And Clinton was impeached for lying about having sex with an intern.

Quick google search my friend:
“The Rossier School came under scrutiny last March, when USC administrators pulled it from U.S. News & World Report’s next annual ranking of best graduate schools because campus officials had identified a “history of inaccuracies” in data reporting”

So USC stopped the false advertising for their on-line program (which seems like common sense that an on-line program isn’t as good as an in person education) well before the lawsuit was filed.

pandering judge
Pandering judge? What is the judges name? What makes you believe the judge is pandering? Are you a moron?

Not uncommon for universities.
Trump University is NOT a university. Name a real not for profit university that was sued for fraud.

the raid was purely political.
The raid had a warrant from a judge because Trump had been obstructing for months. The documents were there.
The FBI is normal. You are not normal.

Not Trump. Tell me whose hands are completely innocent around D.C.
Trump benefited from the protection of his office. No Obama officials were arrested over 8 years in office.

Again, not uncommon and the definitions of "tax fraud" are pretty loose
That’s not true. Few people go to jail for tax fraud. Trump’s CFO is in jail.

Two Trump spokesman exchanged texts saying they thought Trump was committing treason
“Shah exchanged text messages with another former White House spokesman, Josh Raffel, who had been primarily responsible for handling communications for Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, and her husband, senior adviser Jared Kushner.
Raffel flagged to Shah a tweet noting that Trump’s daily schedule now carried with it the vague assurance that the president would make “many calls and have many meetings” and “work from early in the morning until late in the evening.”
“I think what they meant is The President will wake up early and commit many, many crimes including but not limited to obstruction of justice, attempted fraud, and treason in an effort to conduct a coup. Then he’ll fly to a rally in furtherance of the same,” Raffel wrote. (Now a public relations executive in New York, Raffel declined to comment on the text.)
“It’s really disheartening,” Shah responded. “The only clear cut evidence for voter fraud is the failed attempts from Trump.”

“The emails and text messages involving Shah offer a particularly vivid example of the pattern, demonstrating how elements of Fox, the Republican Party and the then-president’s own staffers spent years accommodating some of Trump’s worst impulses and amplifying some of his lies. When it came to the baseless election fraud narrative — including that counting dead voters had lifted the Democrats to victory — many of these people were aware of the likely falsity of the allegations but were unwilling to anger Trump or his supporters by clearly stating so publicly”
