I couldn’t find a thread just about this case, and thought we should have one since it’s Trump’s first criminal trial. He has to attend every day, as I understand it. Here is a quick reminder of what it’s about. His former lawyer Michael Cohen already went to prison for his involvement in this case.

He's not wrong. Every now and then, I'll check in on CNN's live updates from the trial, and I'll see things and wonder.."why did they waste time typing this out?"
"Donald Trump is whispering to his attorney."

We're supposed to believe that anyone who surrounds themselves with criminals is more than likely a criminal as well.
Here's a nice flock of birds to soothe one's most inner chord.

Why would someone who presents themselves as completely cocksure that Trump is going to win constantly cry that it's time for Biden to resign or stop running?

are yall saying that anyone who is a convicted criminal that has ever testified against someone else should never be allowed?
If ghislaine maxwell decided to give names of all lthe people who did things on the island, should we believe her, or since she is a convicted criminal, we shouldn't allow her to testify if that were to happen?

Yeah, it's an odd thing to complain about when this happens all...the...time. But, when you're grasping for straws like he is...you get these convoluted and indefensible takes on something pretty obvious. He always, always has ulterior motives

people are convicted all the time from testimoney of former associates who were also convicted of the same crimes..
I wonder if they are also against testimony during a murder trial from someone who was involved in the crime but has decided to admit what happened so he can get a lighter sentence for his testimony?

I remembered where I heard the comment about the mafia boss earlier. It was after the trial of John Gotti. The witness
with character concerns was his former underboss Sam Gravano. Gravono's testimony was the reason Gotti was finally
put away for good.

First, that’s not a “lower level job” - it’s a quite different job. He was at the NYAG before he took the DOJ job - where he was there in an acting (non-confirmed) role from January 2021 to December 2022, before he took the job back at the NYAG to lead the Trump case. You’re going to have to ask him why but there’s certainly nothing curious about it - he wasn’t at DOJ for very long and the AAG post is policy and management, there’s no case work whatsoever. Many lawyers prefer case work and substantive practice over policy and management. And DOJ isn’t necessarily the end all be all.
But it certainly doesn’t suggest he’s some Biden plant. The investigation began in 2018 (when he was still at NYAG). He certainly appears to believe that Trump has broken the law and should be accountable but that hardly means he’s under Biden’s direction. I think many millions share that view.

Do you mean to tell me that SFL tried to make some sort of conspiracy out of something that’s normal?
lololololSeriously-he didn’t know this on his own. Some liar and outrage merchant told him it was fishy. Will he ever learn not to trust these propagandists? It doesn’t look like he will.

He is so conspiracy pilled. He needs a conspiracy for an investigation into hush money payments to a pornstar. LOL

When Michael Cohen takes the stand in the coming days as the star witness in his former boss’s criminal trial, it will mark the climax of his transformation from Donald Trump’s bullying defender to one of his loudest public enemies.
As Cohen tells and retells the story — in congressional testimony, television interviews, two books, a popular podcast and assertions to the judge in his own criminal case — he is a man on a quest for redemption. After years spent serving Trump, he says he’s ready to serve his country. A confessed liar, he says he’s now willing to risk everything for the truth.
“I am the canary in the coal mine for millions of Americans mesmerized by Trump,” Cohen said on the debut episode of his podcast, “Mea Culpa,” expressing his hope that speaking out would be a “way to right some of the many wrongs I committed at his behest.”…..
But even some on the left offer wary assessments of the man who once said he would “take a bullet” for Trump.
“Look, I think his testimony is important. I think his willingness to speak out and to incur the wrath of Trump world is significant,” said Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), a former federal prosecutor who chaired the House Intelligence Committee when it met with Cohen in 2019.
Schiff said Cohen’s admirers shouldn’t lose sight, however, of the fact that he turned onto his new path only after Trump abandoned him, leaving Cohen to his fate when he faced criminal charges in 2018.
“He would still be a loyal Trump soldier if Trump hadn’t been willing to discard him like a piece of bad fruit,” Schiff said……

The Stormy Daniels hush money trial will hurt Trump's evangelical Christian base as the sexual allegations continue, a former adviser to President Joe Biden has said.
Moe Vela, a former Biden communications aide, told Newsweek that while the trial could primarily cost Trump votes among independents and women, it will also start to affect his credibility among evangelicals.
That's because the allegations of extramarital affairs with an adult film actress and a Playboy model jar with the Christian values of some of his supporters.
"I predict it will even cost him some political points with evangelicals," Mr Vela said. "The trial is a daily reminder of Mr. Trump's disregard for the sanctity of marriage and his consistent infidelity as a way of life and pattern."
" Eventually I believe that true Christians and evangelicals will recognize the incongruence between their beliefs and values and Mr. Trump's actions, history and rhetoric. This trial simply heightens and expedites that inevitable moment of truth."........
