Similar to all political posts on this board, this thread makes me weep for the collective intelligence of our society. We do get what we deserve, I suppose.

You're apparently ignoring the fact that a number of posters here sat in on the trial every day and came to an entirely different verdict than the unanimous one of the jury. 👀

 

[BossNJ]

Just wondering what your feelings are about the CNN and MSNBC propaganda puppets who all lied about the laptop? You seem very on top of the Dobbs facts. As I said, I was familiar with his CNN career, and didn't follow him when he was on Fox. But some of the so-called need people on MSNBC major propaganda puppets.

Remind us all of who settled a ~800 million defamation lawsuit and is in the process of fighting several others.

oooohhhh checks, and wait, check stubs...and heaven forbid...bookkeeping entries!!!!

lulZ what was the underlying felony crime---specifically. Hurry up and explain before this kangaroo court so-called verdict gets tossed. Can't wait for Trump's DOJ to start investigating the political hack judges in Manhattan next year.

 

[RUBOB72]

They convicted him on basically heresy . There was no proof of a crime. Never doubt the corruption which abounds in NYC. A case which had gone way past the statute of limitations and which should never have tried as a criminal case. But you are not able to rationalize this bias. So enjoy it now and actually you better enjoy that victory in court as it may be your last celebratory victory for awhile.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Nov 8, 2019 — A judge in New York ordered President Donald Trump to pay $2 million for misusing his charitable foundation. Was that hearsay
Feb 6, 2018 A federal court approved a $25 million settlement with students who said they were duped by Donald Trump and his now-defunct Trump University. Trump did give a great lesson to those students in the art of fraud by making them the mark.
May 9, 2023 — A jury has found Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996.. grab en by the ***** moment that came back and grabbed Trump in the wallet
"There's none so blind then those that refuse to see."
Hearsay my butt, some people are born followers and refuse to accept the facts.
Trump will probably win and make the United States less free for a lot of Americans and with a corrupt supreme court change election laws so only those his kind want to vote will be able to vote and illegals are not part of that but will be used to suppress the votes of many legal voters.

Remember this in your blind loyalty to a criminal who uses every trick in the book to gain power and cares more for that power than the people who put him there.
Oppose his will , like every President that defended democracy allowed, and you'll be part of this
unless you bow down to him like a loyal subject is expected to:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

[MADHAT1]

And what felony charge was the Manhattan jury unanimous on? Thanks.

Each guilty verdict was unanimous and had to be.

Judge Merchan made that explicit when when delivering jury instructions before they started deliberations

“Your verdict, on each count you consider, whether guilty or not guilty, must be unanimous; that is, each and every juror must agree to it,” he said while reading the jury instructions.

So you're clueless, as usual. What was the felony the Manhattan jury unanimously found him guilty of?

 

[MADHAT1]

You're clueless, as usual.

you asked, you received the facts you asked for.
I guess I was clueless when I thought you really wanted the answer 😇

I think the media failed there. I have larger thoughts on it but at its core, the media dropped the ball on the laptop story. I think MSNBC is largely useless as a news outlet. Rachel Maddow makes me cringe because she'll rant about right wing conspiracies and then drops random conspiracies all over her show. MSNBC isn't news, it's entertainment just like much of Fox is now. If that's your thing (Not you specifically, I mean in general), they have at it. I certainly wouldn't turn to the talking heads at MSNBC or on Fox and Friends for actual news.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

You haven't cited a felony. Wow your reading comprehension sucks.

 

[Ty Webb]

Did those lawsuit $$$ come out of your pocket? No it didn’t my friend… enjoy the next 3 + months.

LOL, what does this have to do with my point? You are basically asking why I have an issue with Dobbs. It's not because he supports Trump. I have issues with Dobbs because at the end of his career, he was a hairpulling, gas lighting propagandist. And to back that up, I point out that his propagation of election lies on air cost Fox millions. It's not an opinion that Dobbs was a gas lighting propagandist. He was in fact, just that.

 

[Ty Webb]

You say conspiracy … sure stick with that thinking Ty… point is both sides have in the past relied upon what is termed conspiracy.

Great. There certainly have been some doozy left wing conspiracies. One of the dumbest, currently, is this idea that assassination on Trump was actually concocted by his people to try to gain more sympathy. I saw one talking head float that on MSNBC.

But none of this disproves my point or stance on Dobbs. He was a legend in the industry who at the end of his career had turned into a highly partisan propagandist that told such exceptional BS on air that it cost him his job and his employer hundreds of millions of dollars (and let's also note, Dobbs later admitted he had little proof to back up what he said).

NY State's governor had to mount an effort to quell unease among NY businesses who now realize just how corrupt and strange NY's legal institutions have become.

Misdemeanors that were invalidated by statute of limitations were magically made into felonies to get extra time made possible by Cuomo CV extensions. Old nuisance payments that the Trump team made, were of a sort so routine that the leading expert in such cases said there was no case. His testimony was not was not allowed in court.

Bragg himself refused to pursue the case prior to the magic conjuration. The magic was the suggestion that the payments might have been cover-up for election crimes that made "felony" tag used. Of course in NY/DC real crimes dont need to exist when you have corrupt judges and toxic juries who can be relied on to "stick-it to the man."

Part of this mess was known fact that presidents have immunity in order to be able to do their jobs instead of doing CYA. It was also known the judge had a daughter who made millions off Biden campaign donors and the obvious recusal never happened.

Skanky Daniels had also lost a case to Trump and owed him $300,000 for legal expenses. Michael Avenatti was convicted of trying to extort Nike as well as stiff IRS, embezzling client funds (Skanky included), identity theft, wire fraud. He was sentenced to 14 years. This was a guy the MSNBC crowd wanted as a presidential candidate.

I dont think the lawfare vs Trump was expected to work. I think they thought they would get a clueless public to reject Trump. Instead of that they now see DT as Donald Shakur or Donald Mandela. I know there are good Dems because a lot of them are leaving the crew of misfits running the party into an extinction event (dangerous because their criminals and gangs and violent dependents will be alone to their own devices). However the crew at the helm are most corrupt and vicious I ever saw

We could mention a few others from Chappaqua NY and Rehoboth Beach Delaware but why prolong giving credence to your bias. NY ?…you do realize they have been after Trump since he first came down the elevator at Trump Tower in 2015. Proud and yeah I like Trump… never tried to hurt me… when did he cause you actual harm? … did he steal your lunch money? Defending Democracy… you sound like all the left talking heads. Like I said … you better enjoy the next 3+ months.😜

BTW: there was no proof nor a true conviction in the made up sexual assault trial . The the civil suit was just another case of the corrupt NY judicial system .

What a mess

 

[Westcoast]

who determines what a lie is

Generally, when one knowingly states a falsehood, it's considered a lie. It's not a matter of who determines it. Trump and his team (as well as the talking heads on Fox) knew Trump had lost to Biden in 2020. But they continued to say Trump had really won, or the election had been "stolen". That is the very definition of lying. Dobbs was a participant. And all those lies led to Jan 6 and the deaths of multiple people - including Ashley Babbit. None of the deaths would have occurred without the lies about the election.
Sad but true.

 

[Kbee3]

I always loved the way he jumped into action when the Capitol was invaded, Capitol police officers attacked ( by the law-and-order crowd), chanting to hang his vice -president ringing out, hunting going on for Democrat representatives...all aimed at preventing the counting of the Electoral College votes in an election he knew he lost.
What other presidential candidate would be inspiring and encouraging such treason ?
Besides Gus Hall I mean.
