The Trump Arrest thread

Quote: ams288

THERE IS A VERDICT

Not good for Trumpie. We would have heard something if they were deadlocked and they would be sent back to try again.

So, not only can you indict a ham sandwich, you can convict one on all counts.

Also EB jinxed trump.

Talk about desperation after the guilty verdict

Trump's lawyer Todd Blanche: We move for a judgment of acquittal. There is no way this jury could have reached a verdict without relying on Michael Cohen - he lied, in this case. He cannot be used to convict President Trump

Justice Merchan: I'm sure you misspoke I do not know that anyone committed perjury in this case... Your motion is denied.

Well, Cohen had a really good day, that's for sure.

I totally concur. If not a trumper, then a curmudgeon or contrarian or someone who's been 'got to' or hopes to be 'rewarded'

Chance of 12 jurors agreeing on the obvious guilty verdicts is slim to nil.

Oh hum. You tried.

I stand corrected 34 times 12.

Happy now to eat humble pie and pay tribute to the jury.
I'll savour every slice.

We all know that drumph will be pardoned 1 minute after the next republican president is elected. But a pardon is only given to a convicted criminal. It won't be an overturning of the verdict. As an honorable man, drumph would need to accept the pardon as a criminal or reject it as a wrongly convicted felon.

Of course, he will appeal. He may even succeed
.
How long will it be before drumph declares "History will tear to tatters the verdict of this court,”
Interesting times!

Lock him up!

The red wave finally came for the GOP:

Trump is still a lucky man. He can still run for office and possibly win, and he’s got an appointed judge slow walking a more serious case, so it doesn’t come to trial before the election.

OD, Trump doesn’t actually apply the actual meaning of something. He would definitely repeat that a pardon means he’s innocent over and over regardless of facts. That’s his M.O.

Heard earlier today, the SCOTUS could have ruled on Trump’s immunity appeal today, or at anytime. It’s expected.

I love it when I'm right. I've been telling everybody I know that Trump's going to be convicted. I've been saying that he could be accused of killing JFK in 1963 when he was 17 years old with absolutely no proof and a New York jury would find him guilty. And I was right. And now I'm rubbing in people's faces and they don't like it. LOL My brother-in-law is really pissed cuz he said no way and I said, just wait.

Shame you never said it here, so no one believes you.
