    There were a million reasons the jury could have acquitted, and one reason to convict. And we see what the jurors chose.

      He's intentionally trying to mislead you.... the facts are laid out...
      Trump is guilty....
      The transcript has been released and this guy has it or ignorant...
      RODECAST and other attorneys have it... broke it down....
      The thing is...
      Each count is 4 yrs in prison...
      Even if he gets half knocked off during appeals, he will still do the max time of 20 yrs.
      In Ny, its 4 per but max 20 yrs.
      This guy is intentionally trying to sew questionable doubt... and the fact is ... THERE'S NO DOUBT.
      Notice he tossed out Cohen was a liar?
      Yes, Cohen is... but he lied for TRUMP.. he was a major trumper... as was Lev Parnas...
      But, trump threw them under the bus. As he will do to his bodyguard.
      Its not an accounting error..
      He made a deal...
      And repaid Cohen.... after he took a 2nd mortgage on his home to help trump. This was why he was being repaid....
      But....the second trump decided to screw him, Cohen came clean...
      It doesn't matter if Cohen lied ever now... the documents show reality...
      All Cohen was in this case was supporting the facts.... that were documented and signed by ....
      TRUMP
      ..
      On top... he paid Cohen over the amount reimbursement but taxes and more...
      ..
      This guy in the video knows this... he's playing ignorant for the Trumpicans.
      ...
      Again..... Cohen and Stormy weren't the strengths in the case.... DOCUMENTS were...
      And
      Defense called Pecker to help trump...it hurt him more.
      He admitted a catch and kill scheme, paid for previous stories but trump didn't reimburse him. So, in the emergency situation, Cohen stepped up after the Orange turd said, he'd make it worth his time if he helped him...
      Which the docs support that...
      ..
      Defense only called 1 witness that screwed him more.
      ..
      Note... every juror was approved by BOTH Defense and Prosecution...
      Infact... atleast 2 on the case were Trumpicans...but after the case.... unanimously voted to convict.
      ...
      This guy is paid for by the Republican superpac to intentionally mislead....
      He claims to be democrat, donates a few hundred yrly but earns millions from them...
      Pure BSer.. 2 faced...
      Facts are facts.... the evidence show that....
      He knew they were about to endict him so he intentionally pushed up his run for election to claim election interference...
      But....
      If you watch his interview on FOX.....
      He literally admitted that fact....
      Saying it wasn't election interference....
      Wait.. WHAT??????
      Watch it..... don't trust everything anyone says ... listen to his words....
      He literally states he knew they were about to indict......
      Jack smith was only called in for certain advisory services... do his thing... but didn't realize they had a few judges bought and paid for...
      Vs following the rule of law, doing what judges like in Russia do....
      Here... its crooked crp and delay delay delay....
      Trump will loose.... and will run to Russia....
      ..
      Its up to the judge... could put him on a strict probation since he running for prez.
      1st he has to do the probation/parole officer stuff... before July 11.. if it isnt done ..the judge will take matters into his own hands....
      Trump has to provide medical, family history etc back to birth.. including mental evaluations ...
      To make sure he can handle any sort of incarceration... if needed.
      Shoot... the judge can force him into a mental hospital with his security to be evaluated. This could take 30 days... no outside contact.
      Midas touch is mostly a Dem channel but they have a lot of Republicans on,... and most are Legal scholars or lawyers... Defense, and Prosecution.
      ..
      If you want some legit legal advice without the word salad .. i have tge channels saved..
      Also... there's some with Drs and such on that break down trump and bidens mental health....
      Lucid vs not but clinical terms...
      1 day a woman blacked out at his rally... he seemed to be genuinely caring... asked if they needed something... they said WATER....
      He tells his crew, the second he was given water to give to the woman... he suddenly decided to drink it... basically not saying a word but saying FK YOU....im going to drink it... not ever caring or... his brain just forgot... like Alzeimers or ??
      This is why he repeats and such .. but screws up not remembering the added lies.
      ..
      But, this guy is a schmuck as my grandpa would call him..
      Yes, my GP was Lithuanian Jew... he'd call this putz much worse...
      Lol.. i grew up in a catholic home... but loved him to death. Oh.. he married 2 catholic wives. They chose what to believe...
      I'm in the middle... but... I'm hearing GP speak his mind in my head with his accent. Lol..

    I am 80 years old and I still operate a business. In the course of running the same business for 61 years, I have had to litigate many matters. And I have always gotten a settlement in my favor. I always tell people, "When you need a lawyer or a doctor, you need to hire the best". I was disappointed in Trump's team. I almost got the feeling that because they thought there was no crime, they could at least get a hung jury. I'm not sure that the best lawyers in our country could have managed to get even a hung jury. But we will never know. A better defense would have certainly helped in the appeal. Up until the start of the trial, I guess I was also so naive to think something like this whole thing could happen in the United States. I am a native of Texas and still live in the town where I was born. I have seen real crazy things happen in Justice Court, but never anything like this in a court of record. I live only 20 miles from the LBJ ranch and I knew LBJ personally. He and my father were good friends. I would have voted for him, but the election was on November 3, 1964 and I turned 21 on November 4. Everyone around called LBJ a crook and he did some things that were in the gray area. But I don't think he would have ever condoned the weaponizing of our legal system. Again, I hope Trump has better representation during the appeals.

    Dershowitz's argument that no one knows if Trump was at the Jan 2017 meeting between Cohen
    and Weisselberg where they negotiated Cohen's upcoming 2017 compensation is weak. Because
    there is no way that Cohen would accept Weisselberg having a voice in his compensation without
    Trump's knowledge and consent. Why would he? Cohen was no longer working for the Trump Org
    in 2017. And Trump was his client, not Weisselberg.
    Consider this circumstantial evidence:
    No one disputes that Cohen stopped representing the Trump Organization starting in 2017 and only
    represented Trump personally in 2017.
    No one disputes that Weisselberg worked for Trump and took orders from Trump and NOT Cohen.
    No one disputes that Cohen worked for Trump and took orders from Trump and NOT Weisselberg.
    No one disputes that Weisselberg and Cohen would have NO reason to negotiate with each other
    about Cohen's compensation as Trump's personal attorney UNLESS Trump told them to do it
    No one disputes that Weisselberg wrote down the payment plan for Cohen on Cohen's bank statement.
    No one disputes that the written payment plan was followed to the letter and Cohen submitted
    12 monthly invoices to Trump for $35,000 each.
    No one disputes that Trump personally paid 9 of these invoices himself and never raised an objection
    or question about them.
    No one disputes that as an attorney, Cohen knows that any attorney-client agreement would have to be
    approved by the client themself (Trump). And an outsider like Weisselberg would have no authority to
    commit Trump to an attorney-client agreement.
    CONCLUSION--Both Weisselberg and Cohen would have required Trump to sign off on Cohen's
    compensation plan. They would NOT have hidden it from Trump. Cohen had a legal obligation
    to get Trump's approval. And Weisselberg would NOT jeopardize his job by intervening in the
    private business between Trump and Cohen

  • @bruceclaymore9794
    @bruceclaymore9794 4 місяці тому +1

    Couldn’t the jury also infer that the prosecution suborned perjury from Michael Cohen by excusing Weisselberg from testifying at this trial through his previous plea deal. In any event, you’re absolutely correct, Alvin Bragg pulled some incredibly shady things BEFORE this case ever went to trial.

    I respect AD but there are some concerns - first, focusing on Monday morning evaluations with hindsight is much easier than foresight; second, trying to frame this case in a rational legal environment is akin to Alice in Wonderland - no matter what the defense said or how they said it, would have made no difference - period; and third, I respect that you would not vote for Trump but you have not ruled out voting for Biden - given what Biden has done with lawfar at a minimum should make anyone unwilling to vote for Biden even though unwilling to vote for Trump. I respectfully suggest you cease trashing Trump’s defense lawyers - as one who has offered forensic economic testimony for almost five decades with much time spent in courts (though not as extensive as you or from a lawyer’s perspective), Monday morning analysis is far easier than being there as the game is being played. I think yours constant referring to Trump not have good attorneys is approaching pettiness.
