Oh boy, I'd love to see him wiggle out of this one.

i uh, don't get how this is a crime?
of all the actual crimes the man has done... drawing up a non-disclosure agreement? :jesse-wtf:

The honest to god truth is that libs can't actually go after him for the shit he did that was actually really bad because it's shit they do too. (visit Epstein's island, drone strike children, pardon war criminals, privatize and deregulate everything, etc.) Even "Russiagate" was pretty hypocritical given A) The financing of Yeltsin's campaign by the US government under Bill Clinton back in the 90s and B) Biden's son getting a cushy do-nothing job on the board of a Ukrainian gas firm. So they have to go after him for something only Trump would do.
they're trying to say it was an in-kind campaign contribution in violation of campaign finance laws
if that sounds flimsy, you're not wrong
more looking into it, the campaign contribution is in excess of the personal limit, so clearly the only problem here is that a PAC wasn't the distribution mechanism for the money :very-smart:
I know nothign about the DA beyond what TrueAnon said about him but it sounded to me like he is a true believer who thinks this will both make his political future and fix America
What? You thought he'd get charged for the crimes of empires?
not at all, but if non-disclosure 'agreements' are constitutional i have no idea what grounds you could prosecute him for in relation to this affair
I know it's pretty low on the list of terrible things he's done, but bribing a prostitute with your presidential campaign money seems like a crime to me.
in a sensible country maybe, you're allowed to bribe politicians here if its only funneled through the correct legal fictions lol
He should've created a PAC for the hush money and then it would be legal.
That is me just guessing, I don't know about American campaign finance laws lol.
:trump-moist: :trump-moist: :trump-moist: It would be so funny if he ran from prison and won, please god, it would be so fucking hilarious
It's objectively the funniest outcome, so you know that's exactly what's gonna happen :joker-troll:
That's not the funniest outcome. The funniest outcome is if Hillary comes back, and he beats her again.
The funniet funniest outcome is if Hillary also got arrested, ran from prison, and ate shit again.
:mandela:
Right wing Nelson Mandela. :michael-laugh:
Mandela didn't actually run for president from prison, he was released in 1990 and elected in 94. They did try to run the ANC and SACP from prison, but communication back in those days was very limited
I think people mix up Mandela with Nkrumah who won with 95% of the votes while he was in military jail in 1951.
Was it the sexual violence? Was it the targetted killing of an American child abroad? The fraud? The illegal discrimination? The lies? The actual, literal albeit inept, attempt to kill the Vice President and overthrown the government of the united states of America?
No.
No.
It was a technicality in how he reported the money he paid to a sex worker, because the only real crime in America for rich people is having tawdry associations with the working class.
:amerikkka-clap:
The walls are finally closing in on the Trump administration?
can't wait to see what tangible results this indictment has
