I have to assume that if it isn’t aired (and it shouldn’t be but it most likely will be), that it will be used against him in court when he inevitably makes statements that directly contradict evidence. Or just admit it.

BB post doesn’t have a title fyi (it does show up when you click the post) and the “Comments” link at the bottom does not direct to the forum
Edit: I see that it is fixed now

if the judge didn’t place a gag order on him (and even if he did, maybe) that presser is going to be quite a show.

The glare on his face as he came out was very satisfying. Right where he belongs at last: in a courtroom, facing felony charges.

That was hilarious. Hannity gave him the softest softball in the history of softballs and he managed to somehow turn a home run into a balk and a triple play.

And of course he’s using all this as fodder for more fundraising, $5million in the last 48 hours apparently.
They’re even selling fake Trump mugshot t-shirts.
He’s spent his life lawyering himself out of problems, so he could ooze his way out of this one too, a rich white man in America.

Senator Mitt Romney: “No one is above the law, not even former presidents, but everyone is entitled to equal treatment under the law.”
That’s fair, any other presidents that try to pay off porn stars using campaign funds and get caught can expect the same treatment. If he likes we could extend that to all politicians.

This appears to be a cautious DA. I’m very comfortable he wouldn’t move forward with this unless he thought the case was rock solid.
Fingers crossed. 34 counts, and all they have to do is convict Trump on one to set a very welcome precedent. I’m personally expecting at least 5 or 6.
I’m hopeful about the many other ways Trump is being investigated too. But also, they got Capone on a tax charge. I’m for whatever works.

That was just amazing.
I’d call Trump a child, but that’s an insult to children.

I wonder if it has dawned on Trump that his chickens are, at last, really coming home to roost?

I wonder if they are going to charge his son? Jr. was mentioned in the indictment, as being on one of the accounts.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., pledged that the Republican-controlled House would investigate Bragg’s handling of the Trump case.
“Bragg’s weaponization of the federal justice process will be held accountable by Congress,” McCarthy tweeted.
I’d say that he has the brains of a turnip, but that wouldn’t be true.

I’m not a Trump supporter but if you go into a felony arraignment on 34 charges and plead guilty without ever even having heard the charges (since it was sealed) you’re likely doing so against your lawyers wishes. Nobody sane should plead guilty at the arraignment, ever. It’s right up there with don’t talk to cops.
