Cowardly liar Trump is complaining he couldn’t use an “advice of council” defense, hoping you and your ilk are dumb enough to not know it was 100% his choice.
He didn’t use it because 1) it removes any attorney client privilege and makes their correspondence public (outing him for a few dozen more crimes as yet uncharged) and 2) Trump would have to take the stand himself (again, opening himself up to dozens more charges as he admits serious felonies under oath, the moron).
His defense is still “it was a legal fee he paid as a legal expense” ignoring the mountains of evidence, most signed by Trump personally, much of it provided by Trump under oath that prove beyond any sliver of a shadow of doubt exactly what they did to illegally hide this campaign expense as “legal fees”, exactly why they did it, and that they (including Don) knew full well it was illegal and unethical when they were doing it and went to great lengths and expense to not be caught, but were anyway.

He had to sell his plane to pay his legal bills. 😂

Eric said on the courthouse steps…”I cannot wait for the day that we win. We will…WE’RE WHITE!” Tell me again how the Trump’s aren’t racists.

Once again, virile DonJohn couldn’t stay awake in court EVEN DURING JURY INSTRUCTIONS…arguably the most important part of the trial and his last chance to make an impression on the jury…the impression he gave, pure distain and disrespect for the law. The choice to stay up high on speed all night rage tweeting was a poor decision. I would have said he “ran out of gas” but all reports are he has a massive gas surplus and is venting excess gas constantly. 😂

He is now tweeting that he doesn’t even know what the charges against him are…after how many weeks in court having them explained and dissected? His feeble brain has failed. He’s going to die his first year in prison, he’s already in a final decline.

The defense closing was so bad that the judge had to tell the jury to disregard much of it, in parts he admitted to Trump’s guilt, and was so disjointed and weird that it was impossibly difficult to follow, that’s coming from someone who completely understood inception and Tenet on the first viewings (they weren’t complicated, they just weren’t well thought out). Surprise, he violated the law so badly that it may be enough to give the DA an appeal and bring the case again in the impossible event don is acquitted.

Outside closing arguments DonJohn admitted defeat by saying “even mother Theresa couldn’t beat these charges” because he knows he has zero chance of acquittal. He better hope a maggot lied to be on the jury, a jury deadlock is his only possible saving grace, acquittal is not possible.
If one did, they damn well better get doxed fast….and their family.

PS- He’s also saying now that he intends to deport any citizen that annoys him, stripping them of their citizenship, specifically he mentioned anyone who protests legally (unless they’re Jan 6 maga terrorists) but make no mistake he means ANYONE who doesn’t properly cow tow. Tell me again how he loves the constitution….

PS- reminder, Trump this week campaigned with two violent gang members (alleged to be Crip leaders) out on bail and under a 140 count indictment for murders, lest you convince yourself for one second that you aren’t in a violent criminal cult.
In stark contrast, Biden has never campaigned with a mass murderer or active gang leader.
PPS- Misogynist and spouse abuser and philanderer and abortion pusher Minnesota Republican US Senate maga candidate Royce White was just busted for spending donor money on an all-nude strip club, new clothes, expensive hotels, limos, and other illegal expenses…look it up. Not his first attempt either, there are over $100k in unexplained personal expenditures and cash withdrawals from his campaign contributions, many made AFTER he lost his primary. He’s more total human garbage on every level, typical criminal maga.
PPPS- Maga policies just forced a 12 year old rape victim in Louisiana to have her child, ruining both their lives before she’s out of middle school.

Very nice.

I completely agree about her music. I'm not exactly her target audience and I haven't had a breakup in about 20 years, but she seems like an amazing person and she has got some great tunes.

I've come across a couple with great videos that I'll have to put up here (a cyberpunk one and a quirky dance one spring to mind, but no idea of the titles). Thanks for the reminder.

Happy anniversary! Today marks year number 2 since you first became a Sifter and the community is better for having you. Thanks for your contributions!

Maybe google Abe Hamadeh.

He’s the Trump backed election denying candidate for AZ Congress who lost in 22 and is running again.

His texts have been published, texts where he mocks and ridicules you crazy morons that are believing the big lie that he’s basing his campaign on!

Yep. Like many, he’s running on election denial and calls people like you who believe him and the big lie “crazies”.

Just like all the Fox hosts who fed you the big lie constantly for years but in private we’re laughing their asses off at you morons who believe this stupid obvious lie.

While you’re at it, google Andy Ogles who just admitted lying about a $320k loan to his campaign he “repaid” himself with donations….a loan he insisted for years was real and proper. Also, in Santos fashion, he lied about his entire resume, and collected donations for a “children’s burial garden” that was never built and pocketed tens of thousands in donations from his constituents that had lost children. More real verifiable proven maga corruption you don’t care about.

2) Trump is still telling you the new insane lie that Biden tried to assassinate him based solely on the totally standard rules of conduct listed in the search warrant he was given prior notice of, was coordinated with his secret service detail ahead of time, and that was served intentionally with him out of state.
Greene is publicly calling for Republican retaliation.
I wonder…can you see through this tissue paper lie, or do you believe Trump because he said it happened? Can you admit how delusional you are, or can you admit Trump is lying to you as a test of how stupid and blatant a lie you will repeat?
I’m betting neither, you can’t reply on topic or answer those questions because they require self examination of your beliefs and admissions, something you avoid at all costs.

Bwaaahahahaaaa! Nazi rapist coward Trump now claims Biden tried to assassinate him in the Mar a Lago document raid. (The raid 2 years ago where they found hundreds of stolen classified files Trump has sworn under oath he did not have, the raid they gave him days advance notice of, and the raid they performed intentionally when Trump was not there to avoid escalation and obstruction by Trump.)
He has lost his mind completely, and is telegraphing his intentions to assassinate any political rivals and will use this lie to excuse it.
Recall, Trump’s lawyers are in the Supreme Court right now arguing that assasinating a political rival would have been legal.
Shocker, Manly Traitor Greene is claiming to be the source for this disinformation.

Do you believe it, sucker? I bet you do. You are that dumb.
Come on. Defend your messiah. Joe tried everything possible to murder him and his family and only the shield of Trump’s bombproof intellect and honesty protected them from the assassins bullets. 😂

Truth is they’re trying to convince you that the standard use of force rules on every search warrant that limit when force may be used is an assasination order…and truth is your ilk are so dumb and gullible they believe it.

More fist fighting at official maga meetings…in Maricopa county this time. You nutjobs can’t get along with yourselves, can’t have a meeting that doesn’t end in screaming and fistfights. How do you convince yourselves you could ever legislate?

Uh-oh. Alito’s excuse for flying insurrection symbols at his house, that his wife did it to spite a neighbor, fell apart when photos of more insurrection paraphernalia was photographed on his beach house. Is anyone surprised that a maga justice lied again?

Edit: Manly Traitor has now called on republicans to retaliate…claiming there’s proof Biden tried to assassinate Trump then asked ”what are republicans going to do about it?”. This is a call for maga nutjobs to assassinate Biden. If that happens, it will be open season on maga, anyone who ever flew a trump flag will be up for execution, and their families. It will be civil war that will end America. I fully expect multiple attempts, good thing you morons are so incompetent the assassins will likely shoot themselves.

You couldn’t read it at your current age, Bob, so what are you afraid of?

More maggot lies. Those idiots will buy anything.

This isn’t a thing, and is thoroughly debunked, just like everything idiot bob posts.
Maggots have been doing this for years. Lying about what’s in libraries to excuse their total censorship of anything they find distasteful, but it’s not about the sex or violence ever because every single book banner and burner supports teaching the Bible in schools with its graphic sex, rapes, murders, torture, support for slavery, capricious god, constant repeating incest at its core, baby killings galore, etc.

Books similar to this are sometimes (rarely) found in a special area for upper class men at high schools in advanced creative writing classes, or colleges.
This has been debunked repeatedly. You maggots are constant liars. If he “found” it “at the entry door” in the middle school library, it’s because he or his dad brought it there just for this performance. Who honestly believes a middle school librarian gave a pillow book (look it up Bob) to an 11 year old and asked if he would like the graphic novel version (something that’s not a thing btw, written pornography isn’t released in multiple versions).
I don’t think he’s ever been in a library, because people who use libraries know you check out books, you don’t rent them out. They also know English better than these …people.
This ridiculous video itself is years old…he’s talking about masks too.

I would point out that this kid almost certainly has a cell phone, so he has total unfettered access to real pornography of much more deviant and graphic varieties than a slightly titillating story. Except for the Amish, no parent in America has a leg to stand on when it comes to providing pornography to their children, they give them porn access devices at under 7 now.

And another idiot covid denier, shocker. Somebody shoot this terrorist idiot and the rest. Hatriots are not patriots.
Just like every bob post, it’s more prejudice wrapped in hypocritical lies smothered in ignorance. His favorite meal.

Violent Trumpist nutjob Pelosi attacker got 30 years…with more state sentencing to be served afterwards. He will never leave prison alive.
This is the guy you claim is Pelosi’s boyfriend for absolutely no reason besides spite and the embarrassment that he is exactly like you with balls enough to follow his convictions and not just whine like a bitch. Another lie you continue to repeat despite knowing full well it’s a lie…no issue for worthless liars like yourself.
Actually, he was also more tied to reality than you are, you are in fact more delusional and gullible than this criminally insane sucker who believed Trumps lies and acted. All those who have are in prison. You are only free because you are a sniveling coward.

Trump, as expected, is too petrified to testify. SHOCKER!!
What a cowardly loser.
He rested his case after one blatantly lying overtly hostile hyper maga witness who was in fact auditioning to be Attorney General in Trump’s Reich. No defense at all, and insulting to the jury, the court, and the idea of holding Trump to any standards at all.
He did not introduce reasonable doubt, his entire testimony was worthless twaddle, blatantly making up things he couldn’t possibly know about like the content of a private phone call he wasn’t on to protect his master.
Guilt is not questionable. His only chance is jury nullification and a hung jury…that is when they know beyond doubt that he’s guilty but vote not guilty for personal/political reasons.
Edit: DJ needed to show the strong support Daddy has in New York so posted a video of the huge crowds cheering on the motorcade….problem is it’s actually a video of Biden’s motorcade, not Trump who has no crowd cheering for him and is apoplectic about it.

HOLY FUCKING SHEEP SHIT! Trump media finally released its financial report, the first not generated by the fraudulent audit mill he tried to trick investors with…just last quarter Trump media LOST $327 MILLION with $700k in revenues. No wonder they were faking their financial reports, that’s Enron level failure. The stock should be going for 4 shares to the dollar, (Edit: actually 6.6…revenue is $3 million, give a generous 10x for $30 million value, 200million shares, that’s 6.6 shares per $1.… but Trumpists are still paying $43! You are all going to be on welfare after it tanks, I hope you mortgaged your house like so many did.
Lost $327 million in one quarter…on track to lose $1.3 BILLION this year, with basically no income, and now no cash (didn’t they only have $30l million in reserve?). D’oh!
The best part is they say in the disclosure that the success of the company is tied directly to Trump’s popularity…and it’s a totally unsuccessful shit show of fraud and massive losses. Um….😂

lol. So delusional. “Even cnn” has meant diddly squat since the first time you said it months after cnn went far right, firing multiple popular centrist and left leaning hosts and hiring dishonest maggots…which if you had 2 brain cells you would know because you’ve been told a few dozen times with proof, but you don’t, or is it pure dishonesty that has you continuing to attempt to mislead? No surprise you continue to say it, you are incapable of learning or thinking, even when a thing has been proven conclusively with citation and indisputable evidence.

Not sure what you think exonerates Trump there, but you are wrong. “Trump’s “fixer” was a skumbag” is hardly the “gotcha!” You seem to think. Trump was quite public that he was proud he had a criminal thug lawyer working for him, fixing his reputation and helping him not pay bills over and over and over and over through illicit payoffs, perjury, threats, frivolous lawsuits, etc…all for Trump. I know you don’t remember, but look at how he and Cohen acted before 2017.
What’s hilarious is he was apparently honest about this on the stand when asked, continuing to testify honestly about crimes he did when he worked for Trump in a criminal organization surrounded by other criminals…and you think it’s a shocker that he did crimes to benefit himself too!?! lol. You are so silly.
What you missed is he admitted lying about how much REIMBURSEMENT was required for (is it Redfinch, the poll fixing/faking company?), and Trump thinks he’s got him cornered because he paid that inflated reimbursement in full….FORGETTING HIS DEFENSE IS HE DID NOT PAY A REIMBURSEMENT! 😂

Even his legal team says conviction is a certainty if there isn’t a Trumpist on the jury prepared to vote against conviction for purely political reasons. The prosecution has thoroughly proven through evidence Trump’s direct total involvement in the scheme to hide his payoff to the porn star he cheated on his mistress with after cheating on his wife with her (McDougal) for nearly a full year (a story Pecker “caught and killed” to help the campaign with more criminal campaign fraud and massive unreported campaign contributions), hiding the payment through business fraud to help his campaign, which made it campaign fraud too.
Cohen just fills in the details, he doesn’t prove the crimes, mountains of documentation including recordings do. If you think a few minor details like the precise timing of a phone call from 8 years ago
(Edit: uh-oh. Photographs of Trump and Stiller together at the exact time of the call were just entered into evidence. So much for that lie.)
or the biased accusation of tangential crimes totally inconsequential to the crimes Trump committed impeach his corroboration of the documentation in evidence, documentation that proves Trump’s direct personal involvement, or that that somehow might tank the entire case, you are as dumb as I think you are.
This only gives reasonable doubt to someone searching for any excuse to vote against conviction despite all the evidence, someone who was never going to convict under any circumstances. We know there’s at least one, hopefully an alternate.

If you missed it, Friday Trump left court saying his NDA with Daniels must be the only illegal NDA ever, all others are legal but his is determined to be illegal…now stupidly admitting he had an NDA with her, something his lawyers and he have been arguing absolutely never happened.
Again, his press conferences can be admitted to the record and only Trump can contradict them on the stand…which will be his end if he testifies and his end if he doesn’t. Either way his own words are going to hang him.
Again, since you missed it, part of what Cohen was repaid for was paying the company who falsely inflated Trump poll numbers online…yes, PAYMENT TO FAKE POLL NUMBERS. I’m certain you will ignore that, then forget it before reading this sentence, because salient facts don’t matter to your ilk, only ridiculous minutiae you can distract your gnat brain with.

Keep dreaming. How many times have you said that, only to watch your exoneration dissolve in the sunlight? You will never learn though, and will believe anything good for Trump and ignore or deny anything bad or evil…which leaves you 100% divorced from reality living in Trumpist fantasy lie filled world. That’s why your predictions absolutely never come to fruition, they’re all based on a fantasy. It would be sad if you didn’t deserve it.
Keep cut and pasting…The pigeon english is almost too dumb to reply too.
“Even cnn CAN hide this…” !?!
“You orange man bad dream going up….”!?!
I’ve known people with severe brain trauma fresh out of a coma barely able to speak with better brains than yours. 😂

Oh thank God. After all these years I thought it was just me!

You think he’s capable of coming up with an answer himself? After all these years?
I think it’s crystal clear bob can’t think for himself and cannot ever give an answer to any question he’s not been fed by the maga propaganda machine. That’s why we mostly get video clips or cut and paste responses…or more often nothing.
We’ve seen how well bob uses words. It’s no surprise he tries to avoid it…it would be embarrassing if he was capable of embarrassment.

Yes, you are a loser in the eyes of leftists, bigots, righties, inclusives, centrists, the intelligent, the educated, and the rational…there are many on the sift and in life, they all see you, loser.

I can deny he lied under oath, or at least that that has been proven…you have no evidence that he did, only the unreliable memory of a disgraced maga lawyer who suborned perjury before claiming so. Nothingburger Royal with cheese. Still would be a nothingburger if he went under oath and testified to his claims, but he won’t.
You think the accusation that he talked about being harassed means he absolutely didn’t talk about the payoff…because you have never talked about two things in one call?
This is not the gotcha you believe it is. Even if the disgraced ex lawyer speaking not under oath making this accusation was correct about the specific phone call, highly suspect but giving him the benefit of every sliver of doubt, his contention doesn’t even contradict the testimony that he spoke to Trump on that call, and even if it had (and again, it did not) this was one call among many others from 8 years ago he might be recalling happening at a slightly different hour on the same day during one of the dozen calls they had that day.
It doesn’t impeach his testimony in any way, nor any of the evidence Trump knew exactly what he was doing and knew this was criminal, evidence including texts from Trump and audio recordings of Trump discussing the crime.
If Cohen was making it up as you claim, he has plenty of other calls they can’t deny or explain away he could have said were about the details of hiding the secret payoff to hide sex with a porn star while married and dating a playboy model on the side, instead he testified honestly to the best of his recollection…which further enforces the idea he’s now being honest (has been since he left Trump’s employment).
Wait for re-direct. This minutiae will evaporate into pure warm zephyrum and you will still be grasping at straws…loser.

It must be so frustrating that you (maga) have so thoroughly destroyed your credibility that no one even cares about your lies trying to shield the disgraced ex president from crimes he has repeatedly bragged about publicly and now are trying to pretend he didn’t pay a porn star to hide his tryst with her from voters, then falsified business records to hide the payment. Maybe you shouldn’t have spent the last 8 years screaming bloody murder about all the wolves then laughing when help arrived. Now people are hoping there is a wolf and that it eats you and yours…but no one is coming to check.

PS- Where’s Barron?

PPS- since you seek the truth, it’s “it’s” when you are shortening “it is”. “Its” is the possessive word, like "his" and "her," for nouns without gender.

PPPS- Outside court Trump said he had an illegal NDA….likely a slip of the tongue or misstatement, but that’s what he said. He also said “maga is being punked by Ashton Kutcher….I think I know what that means” but he doesn’t, because he is the prank on you, you are being punked by Trump, he absolutely didn’t get that.

Finally some supporters showed up for him and they released a truckload of penis balloons on NY…for the children. (This is a crime and immoral). I’m guessing the anti Trum protestors will bring mushroom tip balloons for Trump soon, the full shaft and balls penis balloons definitely aren’t representative of him.

Alito has been caught with photos of him flying an upside down flag during the attempted coup to signal his support for the fake “stop the steel” (because you can’t spell “steal”) movement that became an anti American anti democratic terrorist gang that tried to end democracy in America on Jan 6. Just like the criminal Thomas. If they both don’t recuse themselves from any Jan 6 case, they may as well disband because they will prove themselves to be not judges but partisan political operatives, and when Dems take the other two thirds of government they will all be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and replaced, including the fraudulently appointed Comey and Kavenaugh. Bye Felicia.

Trump is apparently begging to be put in jail.
A reporter actually watched him in the courtroom going over the talking points his maga friends planned to give outside the courtroom and editing them, then handing them back to his supporters who went outside and read them to the press. The quotes he edited that they repeated to the press were often violations of the gag order…that’s not what he edited out. Somehow he thinks this isn’t directing others to make statements in violation of the gag order…or he understands it’s a major direct violation and is begging for jail. His lawyers are not stopping this, they know for certain it’s a violation that will get their client another contempt charge. What are they doing? Playing to lose?

Still waiting.

PS- Trump has screwed himself by agreeing to Biden’s debate rules. 1 on June 27 hosted by CNN, one in September hosted by ABC…both in studio with no crowds to disrupt and interrupt, both with microphones that are muted when the candidate’s time is up. It’s going to be so incredibly disastrous for Diaper Don. He’s already trying to back out by tweeting that he agreed to a debate on Fox…
Biden didn’t , and that’s not the debate Trump agreed to either.

S&P and Nasdaq are at record highs, DOW hit 40000!!! (remember how you and Trump swore the markets would crash if Biden was elected?) , inflation is still falling (in stark contrast to the high inflation created by Trump money printing policies), food and other prices are now flat or FALLING (in stark contrast to the high inflation and empty shelves Trump delivered), there’s a massive “startup” boom of new companies (in stark contrast to the massive business slump with hundreds of thousands of businesses closing that Trump delivered), unemployment is still at record lows for a record time frame (in stark contrast to the record high unemployment Trump delivered), wages are still outpacing inflation significantly (in stark contrast to the wage slump Trump delivered), gdp is still climbing (in stark contrast to the NEGATIVE GDP Trump delivered), the Biden economic boom is booming harder with every report, and your fake news outlets are having a harder and harder time pretending all the excellent economic news is bad and things are just about to fall apart. 😂 Of course, you still believe them, but very few are as deeply embedded in their own colon as yourself and even maga is realizing they’re being lied to constantly and grifted off.

Side note- in the last 15 years, Trump has paid more for sex than he did in taxes to America. 😂

I know you brainless ijits are confused by everything.
Someone needs to tell you…co-opting the infantile “let’s go Brandon” and turning it into “Dark Brandon” was genius. Co-opting the factual “Diaper Don” nickname and keeping it “Diaper Don” to show his virility because “real men wear diapers” is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard of.
Typical maga

Bonus- There’s another election interference case being built against Trump for secret payments to pregnant women he fired from his campaign during his 2016 campaign paid through shell companies to hide the payments as “legal services”. Sound familiar? Jason Miller is listed as the father. She got millions (reportedly $4.2).
Just so you know, his trials are only for the KNOWN FELONIES the courts can PROVE he committed. There are dozens if not hundreds of felonies he could be charged with and prosecuted for, but maybe not convicted, often by running out the statute of limitations, not because he didn’t commit the crimes. He isn’t even saying he didn’t do it anymore, he’s saying when he commits felonies it’s not a crime.

Trump lost again in court, lost his latest appeal of his NY gag order, which the courts have repeatedly upheld as reasonable and completely legal despite his tantrums.

I would ask if you are embarrassed for buying the obvious lie about Trump’s NJ crowd, claiming the half full event had 4-5 times the maximum capacity of the venue, but I think you are incapable of embarrassment or you would have gone away in shame years ago.

Again, because I know you have reading comprehension problems, the maximum capacity of the rally venue was 20000. It would be physically impossible for there to have been even 30000, but it’s clear the venue was only half full at the peak, and far less once Trump started his rambling disjointed speech.
It was not ever full, it may have been 10000 at the peak, with most leaving when Trump came out.
Trump sycophants are plastering the internet with pictures of huge crowds they claim were attending the rally…crowds from other events like a Rod Stewart concert in Brazil with over 3.5 million attending and other music festivals in other countries from decades past having nothing to do with Trump. They do this because they know idiots like you will see them and without thinking “hmmm….that doesn’t look like the same place, and that’s way too many people in that photo” you think “now I have proof it was 100000, time to rub those libtards noses in it”. They are always correct, you are always too dumb and lazy to verify what you are told and too gullible to ever question those who tell you what you want to hear despite being misled by them EVERY SINGLE TIME.
You are so insecure as a cult you feel the constant need to lie about your cult leader’s victories that are always in fact and reality defeats…you know this or else you wouldn’t lie for him constantly.

Let’s also not forget at his rally he went off script to heap lavish praise on his friend, the late great Hannibal Lecter before for the thousandth time telling his favorite poem “the snake” which he twists into a racist dehumanization of immigrants, but which is actually a song written by a former Black Nationalist and member of the Communist party about people like Trump (he is the snake)…kinda like Rich Men from Richmond turned out to be about Trump but you were too dumb to see it.

These are the liars feeding you nonsense, you are the moron lapping it up and screaming for more as the fact free diarrhea squidges around your cranium to reach your anus. It washed your brain out years and years ago.

Bonus- the poster woman for Trad Wife life is now a single mother 100% denouncing the lifestyle she had promoted as horrifically abusive near slavery that doesn’t have any positive benefits for women or children at all.
