Trump found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records. Here's a breakdown.

A New York jury unanimously found Donald Trump guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, a stunning conclusion to the historic trial of the former president.

The decision has to ultimately be the defendant’s. If a defendant wants to testify and the lawyer refuses to call him, it can be grounds for a mistrial or malpractice.

And now that he’s found guilty on all, he can say “I wouldn’t have been found guilty if they had just let me testify. So unfair. The greatest injustice in history.”

Would Trump's lawyers have any recourse if Trump is running around telling everyone they stopped him from testifying?

Yeah, I think Trump is lying, as per usual for him. I'm taking the lawyer's word over his in a heartbeat. I believe Trump thinks he can say what he wants since the trial is over.

Yeah. Listening to Trump say "I'm telling you they had to hold me back" I immediately thought of Richard Pryor's joke about how a friend of his was being held back from fighting Jim Brown saying how he was going to mess Jim Brown up, but when Jim calmly said "gentleman, I think the man can better express himself if you let him go," his friend whispered to the guys holding him back, "if anyone of you ******** let's one finger off of me, I'll kill you."

That's how I picture Trump "being held back" by his attorneys.

The judge presiding over Donald Trump’s hush money trial has alerted prosecutors and Trump’s defense team about a Facebook post from an apparent social media troll announcing Trump’s conviction one day before a jury announced a guilty verdict.

A brief letter from New York Justice Juan Merchan on Friday tells the parties that the court “became aware of a comment” from a user named “Michael Anderson” that states: “My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted … Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!”

The comment was posted under an unrelated post on the New York court system’s Facebook page from May 29, the day before jurors found Trump guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records, according to the letter.

A Facebook profile that appears to belong to the person who posted that comment – as well as similar comments on the court’s page – describes himself as a “professional s***poster”

Judge Merchan asks both sides to view the comment.

Former federal prosecutor and NBC News contributor Joyce Alene said that Judge Merchan would be “smart to advise the parties [and] hold a hearing on the record to resolve this.”

“If it’s someone posting with no basis for it as it appears, the record will be clear … and if there’s something to it, good to get it out [and] do justice,” she wrote.……

Never mind that he apparently posted something similar on at least one other day from what I read. He just had to get the timing right to start the conspiracy nuts and get them off and running.

 

[MT15]

Said poster is trying to walk everything back now and tell everyone it was a joke but MAGA will run with it I’m sure. What a dork.

 

[MT15]

A sitting US Senator has amplified the shirt post now. MAGA is running with it full tilt. Even though a moron could tell it was a joke just by looking at the guy’s profile and noticing he had been posting like that before attempting to hit the day before the verdict.

Oh, it was Blackburn posting that “the fix was in”.

 

[MT15]

Just ridiculous lies all around.

Something tells me I wouldn't want to be that guy right now.

 

[brandon]

Oh ffs.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Really wish people could be arrested for stupidity. I know our jails would be overrun, but still.

 

[CoolBrees]

Yeah being an internet troll is hilarious until you get a visit from the Feds.

This should get put to bed fairly easy except for the truly conspiratorial minded.

So in before SFL's 30 pages of tweets from Technofog

big foot and Santa are still more real than Trump's fake election argument.

I searched for him,but couldn't find him. Looks like his account may have been suspended. I believe that's
the least of his worries right now.

 

[MT15]

He probably nuked it himself. I think the Feds can probably still find him though.

He forked around and is about to find out

 

[barbar]

OMG. I will never understand why people feel the need to troll on the internet. Especially about something so important as this trial. You just know if your post comes to light that the Trump universe is going to just run with it. EVERYTHING IS RIGGED EVERYTHING IS RIGGED!!!!!
