Instead of devoting the time to keeping violent criminals off of New York City’s streets, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg recently decided to manufacture justification to go after former President Donald Trump for using his personal lawyer at the time to pay $130,000 to on-screen prostitute Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 election.
If Bragg gets his way, Trump could face jail time over a case that Bragg, the Department of Justice, Bragg’s predecessor, and the Federal Election Commission previously decided not to pursue.
Specific charges and potential punishment for Trump have yet to be released but the fact that a felony indictment was even handed down opens the door for political prosecutions to become the norm in the U.S. Specifically, partisan operations against Republicans but not Democrats who have engaged in the same kinds of behavior.
The decision comes just two weeks after Trump predicted that he would be arrested in the coming days. Once the grand jury officially announced the indictment, Trump denounced the decision as “weaponizing our justice system to punish a political opponent.”
“This is Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history,” Trump said in a statement. “From the time I came down the golden escalator at Trump Tower, and even before I was sworn in as your President of the United States, the Radical Left Democrats- the enemy of the hard-working men and women of this Country- have been engaged in a Witch-Hunt to destroy the Make America Great Again movement.”

I saw a letter Daniels wrote for a lawsuit saying she was never paid money by Trump. Then in another lawsuit that Cohen paid her money from himself. Cohen was convicted of perjury.
These charges of Trump make no sense and I watched more than one Dem Lawyer and Expert say that. It will likely make it to trial because the NY Judge will be under heavy pressure and the jury will convict, but the appeals court will throw it out. In any case it will not matter as it does not stop Trump from running and being elected President.
Amazing isnt it. the timing is perfect. as if this bs will keep people from voting for trump.
This bullshit made me go from just voting for Trump if he was the nominee, to actively supporting his candidacy. I may even send him a campaign donation, which I have only ever done for local candidates a couple of times in my life.
Mr Bragg, inquiring minds want to know "Are you out of your fn mind?"
