    @George-K said in The Trump "Hush Money" Trial starts today:

    Stormy Daniels' husband revealed there is a strong likelihood the couple will flee the U.S. if former president Donald Trump is found not guilty in his hush money trial,

    It seems like before every US President election, there is some (minor) celebrity or another saying that they will move from the US if XX is elected. Never seems to happen.

    I think Stephen Seagal moved to Russia to be close to his beloved Tsar.

      I know he’s shown a complete disregard for norms and the law unprecedented among presidents in the past.

      If we can’t punish him for it, our legal system is broken.

      Noticed you smuggled in the word "norms" there.

      Education is extremely important.

        None of the words were smuggled. They all have their papers.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          I prefer a justice system that isn't in the business of enforcing "norms", but hey, people differ.

              Liar, perjurer and now... embezzler.

              Cohen acknowledges stealing from Trump at hush money trial

              Cohen acknowledged stealing from the Trump Organization by including a reimbursement to a technology company in his bonus package and pocketing most of the money.

              "So you stole from the Trump Organization, right?" Blanche asked.

              "Yes sir," Cohen, 57, testified.

              Cohen said he paid roughly $20,000 of the $50,000 that Trump's company owed to the tech company in cash, handing it off in a brown paper bag at his office. He said he kept the rest. He was reimbursed $100,000 total by the Trump Organization for that payment.

              This is what Bragg is basing his case on.

                        Ha!

                        Turley: "The prosecutors are continuing to raise federal election law violations as if they exist in Trump's payments. They do not, but the jury is being led to believe that there were such violations. Merchan has done nothing to counter that false suggestions. The DOJ did not even fine Trump for the payments and declined to bring any criminal charge. Many experts dismiss the claim of the violation."

                          “I am out of the courtroom. It was quite a morning to have someone admit to stealing money from his client and then confirm that he wants to run for Congress. It will be a novel campaign: people usually wait to get into Congress before they commit major felonies...“

                            An official letter of "caution" was sent to the judge.

                            The letter was received last summer.

                              Defense rests without calling Trump up to testify. Likely a good move.

                                  The fact that Trump didn't demand to take the stand might imply that his level of narcissistic imbalance is exaggerated.

                                        @George-K 😂 Maybe in the spirit of bi-partisan, President Biden told President Trump to take whatever he needed of the sedates that President Biden already had. I am imagining a medical cabinet with two shelfs - one labeled "Joe's stuff" and the other shelf - "Don's stuff".
