Donald Trump reimbursed Michael Cohen for the $130,000 in hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election.

    So now it will likely go to the State’s appellate court. I’d venture it won’t be resolved by Election Day.

    And now we get to find out if the US citizenry have the audacity to elect a convicted felon as president. Oh, what a precedent to set.

      The flip side is it will give other juries courage to convict the man without deference to the office. Let’s not forget this is not his only, nor most egregious crime.

      Sure, but now Biden and everyone else gets to refer to him as “convicted felon Donald Trump.”

      Well there’s one republican who likely won’t be voting for him in November now that he’s a convict. And that is Trump, since he realistically won’t be able to vote in Florida.

    It’s curious that none of the targets the Republicans have pursued had been given a veredict of this nature by a jury. It’s like all the Hillary - Hunter - Joe - Name your own dude are really a witch hunt.

      Unfortunately they just interpret that at politicization of justice, not a reflection of the reality that none of them crossed the line of felonious.

      When you believe in a conspiracy, more evidence can only prove you right.

      Clearly it’s because the Clinton-controlled Deep State specifically has it in for Donald Trump.

      /s for sarcasm and sigh
