Yet more proof that he's unaccountable even when proven guilty. If the system only protects the wealthy, it's not just.
It was a forced bench trial with a Democrat loyalist judge. The entire case was a sham and should be thrown out. There was NO victim, NO harm, NO market impact. There was no case. Tish KNEW if she took it to a jury, she would be humiliated before the entire nation, so she wrangled a way to get Trump before a Democrat loyalist judge who already had the guilty verdict decided before the trial began.
The goal was to make it impossible for Trump to appeal by giving out such a ridiculous penalty that would have to be paid in full before an appeal could be filed. THANKFULLY the court system went, "Hold the hell up. This is wrong." Otherwise, any developer who runs afoul the Democratic Party would meet the same fate. To have their files rifled through to find a "crime", then drag them before a corrupt judge like Engoron, to bankrupt them with a penalty that they would be unable to pay, then the AG would seize their assets and sell them for cheap. All the while the person would have absolutely no legal recourse because they have to pay the absurd penalty first. Thankfully this got shut down.
Even the banks that he supposedly defrauded said they would love to do business with him again and how they made a profit from the deal.
The Merchan trial is a similar setup. The case should have been thrown out because the prosecution could not tell ANYONE what supposed crime was covered up. An impartial judge would tell the prosecution to come back when they figure out what crime is being covered up. Merchan was not an impartial judge. He wanted his conviction so he could have his moment of fame, which is why he let the trial go on like it did, let Stormy Daniels give entirely pointless testimony, then stop the defense's witnesses where he could, all before giving exceptionally corrupt jury instructions.
The same judge who threw out the fine literally said there was harm. You clearly didn't read the article.
My dude, everyone knows there was harm including the judges that threw it out. While 500 million is an exaggerated accounting, they should have kept the amount for punitive measures.
Trump is not a contractor. He is the guy that doesn't pay contractors. Hence the many lawsuits and fraud convictions.
And the banks said they would love to do business with him again. If the banks were harmed, they wouldn't want to do business again.
Gonna need a citation on that statement because all the banks with a good reputation seem to say no.
He won't be taking out any loans for the next three years because he and his company were banned for FRAUD!
Oh cool so we get to throw out all cases decided by Republican loyalist judges too then? My friend, you've just saved America for us. 🫡
Of course anyone that could rule against your Orange King couldn't possibly have done so from just means. Such a victim.
The mental hoops you guys jump through to convince yourselves that your cheat, conman, rapist is a holy man would be absolutely farcical, if it wasn't so damn tragic. The fact you've come to this comment section and so vehemently defended your Orange God, on MULTIPLE THREADS, is PEAK LeFou. Begone Trumpian buttboy. Hope you wake up in a year or two and realize what an absolute tool you are.
Lying liar has liars lying for him.
Now do the trial that never happened.
You know, the one with Top Secret Docunents in Trumps international hotel bathroom that anyone could access. Seeing as a single similar document being leaked sent Reality Winner to jail for over 5 years. Then why could Trump have boxes of these documents, and never see trial?
If you care about law and order explain to me how the largest violation of national security ever will never see trial?
You gonna hand wave away America's nuclear secrets in a Mar-a-Lago shitter as being safe for us because it's profitable to Trump?
Respectfully, answer this question.
