Slippery slope the judge donated ($35 dollars) we have a Supreme Court justice taking millions of dollars in trips and gifts. Why bring up this point... a weird attack by Cotton.
“At every turn he ruled in favor of the prosecution” Well Tom you’re going to need to provide a breakdown of all of these rulings. The defense has been well documented as putting up absolute garbage arguments that would be ruled against by anyone. This is what happens when the defense has no case. (But you know this don’t you Mr. Conman) I’m sure you want to forget about all of the objections that were made by the defense that were sustained by the judge. I’m sure you want to forget how quickly the judge could’ve put Trump in jail for about a dozen violations of the judge’s completely constitutional gag order that was supported at appeal.
It’s not that the defence had no case, it was the prosecutors that had NO case‼️The prosecution STILL can’t name the crime. Calling a legal expense, a legal expense is NOT a crime. Paying a NDA is NOT a crime. This case will be dismissed by the higher courts. And the judge and prosecutors will be DISBARRED‼️This case WAS political and should never have been brought!
A grand Jury says so,a jury says so,NY"ers say so.When will people see right through this person who is what he accuses others of being as a scammer,rigger,fixer,and witch hunter.
Please, Meet The Press, please consider fewer MAGAT Congressional guests! You are giving them an undeserved megaphone for revisionist history and LIES.
Hilary did the same thing but paid a million bucks labeled as “legal fees “ found guilty by FEC so when is her trial ? NFEC looked at this exact case said Not guilty . She received a FINE. Sham case
Even if they did, why would you be interested in their opinion? They aren’t jurors…they aren’t lawyers…they don’t matter in any of this context. Jurors handed down a verdict. That’s all she wrote.
@@pfezziwigHis daughter’s company made money. It’s like Ivanka Trump had over 40 Chinese patents approved WHILE she worked in the White House. However, the judge ASKED the ethics committee if he should recuse himself. “On May 31, 2023, Trump’s legal team had raised the issue of Loren Merchan’s political work in an effort to get the judge to recuse himself. About six weeks earlier, Justice Merchan sought an opinion on the issue from the New York State Advisory Committee on Judicial Ethics, which found no reason for recusal.”
Man these politicians are so disconnected. The American people aren't that stupid has this guy thinks we are. Trump spent nearly 9 trillion dollars in 4 years. We can't go another 4 years of spending this kind of money under Trump we are going to go bankrupt.
I keep hearing Republicans says that Trump "will be better for the economy." Drives me nuts. If the GOP has any dignity, they will nominate another candidate.
Shameful, coming from a sitting US Senator. What us wrong with the Republican party? What does Donald Trump has in this party of law and order? Why defend the undefendable?
I just noticed here that Sen. Cotton speaks about T****, like it's a prophecy. If ever, New York would be sanctioned ? If T****, was the leader, diplomatic ties would have been cut off,
Good Point 👍 Sounds like he was interviewing to be the VP pick to me. It’s like who can kiss Trumps butt the hardest. 😘😘😘 It’s so pathetic at this point.
Trump has shown all Americans how spineless the Republican Party truly is. They have no integrity or morals whatsoever. How do they look their children in the eyes while backing such a immortal person.
Is quietly donating to a campaign worse than public pronouncements like flying flags specifically to support Trump? This is about the appearance of partiality that would prevent a biased decision. Public pronouncements of partiality are far more alarming.
When is Biden going to cure cancer like he said if elected? We can go back and forth on what Trump/Biden has said but want to make it interesting and compare racist quotes? 😂
Of what ? Paper crime ? Wrongful filing by a lawyer as “lawyer fees “ Hilary filed a million dollars as “lawyer fees” and got a FINE ! Meanwhile 80% of prisoners in Rikers haven’t even been to trial THIS is what Bragg and democrats focus on. Pretty shameful the millions wasted.
@@elizabethstanley7137 No he is he was trialed and was convicted by jury so yeah fact is he violated law and now reality is settling in. So i dont see backfiring at all but it always nice to see that Trump can do the stupidest crap and his supporter will follow him to pits of crap he lives in lol.
Cotton has a very poor understanding of the law in DJT cases. The documents overwhelmingly showed guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The witnesses just tied the evidence together. Documents are in black and white. Briggs cut back on the number of charges to ones he definitely knew he could win. Some prosecutors wanted many more charges. The Judge has no choice but to accept the verdict, no reversible error by the Judge. Every time DJT loses it is Rigged. If he had documents he should have used them!!!!
Man, Tom Cotton must’ve been on the jury as an alternate, right? He was there. He knows… haha! What a clown! Tom, did he do the things that the prosecutor are alleging? No one seems to be refuting that piece. Well, then it sounds like the jury got it right. Sorry you don’t like the outcome.
Trump Do The Right Thing and Get War Hero and Great Senator Tom Cotton as your VP pick and successor. He turned a deep blue seat red 10 years ago and is one of the most intelligent America First people in Washington without being “maga” He would also debate circles around Harris
I want to contrast the interview with Tom Cotton on MTP with the interview immediately following on the program with Hakeem Jefferies. With Cotton the interviewer was combative, constantly interrupting his guest, was aggressive with follow up questions and provided constant reframing of issues. With Jefferies, the interviewer was polite, rarely engaged in follow up questions, refrained from reframing what the Minority Leader said. This represents a complete degradation of the fair and equal approach that Tim Russert exemplified when he was host of the program. MTP should be ashamed of itself in what is has become.
A great patriot once said : '"A candidate under federal investigation has no right to be running: because it would be virtually impossible for any president under indictment to govern." We need to get back to the time when American political parties had standards.
I realize Kristen Welker is on maternity leave (Congrats) but Peter is better at this job than she is. This fact check was brilliant and was similar to the community notes on twitter, where he allowed Cotton to lie and then hit him with the truth. Unfortunately Welker too often allows lying BS to go unchallenged, and fact checking of liars should not be so difficult. The only criticism I have is that he wasn't forceful enough in refuting Cotton's lies about Trump not threatening to jail HRC, or suddenly "deciding" in 2016 that was not the course of action to take. As soon as Cotton finished lying, Peter should have played the supercut of all the times Trump beamed and joined his spporters in chanting "lock her up". Or the campaign speech days before the election where Trump said the country simply couldn't afford to elect someone facing a possible criminal indictment. The various Trump tweets of 2017 and 2018 where he berated his DOJ for not going after HRC hard enough, would be very effective at debunking those Cotton lies as well.
Does anyone watch these news anchors and just think how ridiculous they act now ... . I remember the evening news when I was growing up and there was a sense of integrity and respect as a reporter.... Now they are like children whining and making faces .... What a joke l
Since you Peter did not tell Cotten what he is saying is irresponsible and dishonest you have failed as a journalist and failed the country. Your pushback was helpful but what is required is a full throated condemnation of cotton’s lies.
Do any of you find it interesting that many of the trials related to Trump are coming to Merchan's court even though the selection of a trial judge is supposed to be random. It is a 1 in 15000 chance for Merchan to be presiding at all three trials. Coincidence?
Tom Cotton backpedaling from his Jan 6 comments, ready with his Fox News talking points. Good Job Peter holding his feet to the fire while this sycophant kissed Trumps butt for the VP spot he won’t get because Trump is going to lose AGAIN. America is moving on from this MAGA BS. Sick of it!!! Considering Trumps failed Covid response, America is doing better than most countries. We avoided a massive recession that’s to Biden and anyone who wants to work has a job. The world is suffering from inflation & Trump emboldened Putin, Un and Xi. Trumps failed trade deals, Mexico didn’t pay for the wall, he divided this country & so many died because of his failed response to Covid. 4 great years under Trump 🙄 what planet was he on. He must think we have amnesia.

In my opinion. Unless cotton (or anyone else )sat through the entire trial and viewed all the evidence I’m NOT interested on their opinion ❗️
Even if they did, why would you be interested in their opinion? They aren’t jurors…they aren’t lawyers…they don’t matter in any of this context. Jurors handed down a verdict. That’s all she wrote.

Oh dear Tom. Interviewing for the running mate position.
He didn’t backpedal and say the election was stolen so I doubt he will get the job. What a stab in the back for Pence.
