Rebel HQ - Trump Fumes, gets humiliated by his own Supporters

Man stelle sich vor: es zeigen sich immer weniger und wenige MAGA-Dullies vor dem Gerichtshaus und protestieren für Trump. Das ihm das nicht passt, nicht schmeckt und nervös macht; wer kann es ihm schon verdenken. Kann es sein, dass sogar die MAGA-Leute irgendwann keine Zeit, keine Lust, oder einfach kein Geld mehr haben, um sich jeden Tag für Trump in die Schusslinie zu werfen?

Former President Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felonies by the jury in his "hush money" trial in New York on Thursday, making him the first former president in U.S. history to be convicted of a crime.

The jury, composed of 12 Manhattan residents, found that Trump illegally falsified business records to cover up a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election. They found him guilty on all counts on their second day of deliberations.

The presumptive Republican nominee for president is now also a convicted felon, a label that could reverberate across the electorate in the months between now and Election Day in November.

The verdict was handed down in the same Manhattan courtroom where Trump has been on trial for the past six weeks. Trump stared at each juror as they confirmed their vote to convict and angrily denounced the decision in the hallway outside the courtroom, vowing to fight the conviction.

Jurors sided with prosecutors who said that Trump authorized the plan to falsify checks and related records in an effort to prevent voters from learning of an alleged sexual encounter with Daniels. Prosecutors from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office said the conspiracy spanned his 2016 campaign and continued well into his first year in the White House. Trump denied having sex with Daniels and pleaded not guilty.

Justice Juan Merchan set a sentencing date of July 11, just four days before the start of the Republican National Convention, where Trump will be formally nominated as the party's standard-bearer. He could face up to four years in prison and a $5,000 fine for each count, but Merchan has broad discretion when imposing a sentence, and could limit the punishment to a fine, probation, home confinement or other options...

The Biden campaign warned that former Trump's conviction doesn't prevent him from winning another term in the White House from a legal standpoint. 

"There is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box. Convicted felon or not, Trump will be the Republican nominee for president," the campaign's communications director Michael Tyler said in a statement.

Note: Even if Trump gets reelected, he cannot pardon himself in this case, because this is a state-level conviction. The president can only pardon people convicted of federal crimes, not people convicted by the states. (x, x)

So in the United States a convicted felon is NOT allowed to vote, but IS allowed to run for President

EXPLAIN THE LOGIC

[republicansaredomesticterrorists]

He keeps the title of convicted felon but receives no punishment, not even a fine. Teflon Don strikes again and the two tier justice system fails us again. I knew he would get off the hook but was expecting at least some token punishment of a fine or community service. He was allowed to speak and called it an unfair hoax to keep him from becoming president.

The U.S. Supreme Court denied a request by President-elect Donald Trump to halt proceedings in his criminal hush money case.

The 5-4 decision came hours after New York state’s highest appeals court refused to delay Trump’s sentencing.

Trump was convicted of 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 presidential election.

Trump hush money trial begins

The New York judge who presided over Donald Trump’s hush money trial denied the president-elect’s bid to vacate his guilty verdict on presidential immunity grounds. "Defendant’s motion to dismiss the indictment and verdict is denied," Judge Juan Merchan wrote in a ruling Monday. He handed down the decision after also denying Trump's argument that he's already protected by presidential immunity because of his election win. "This court does not agree," the judge wrote. Trump was convicted in May of 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment his then-lawyer Michael Cohen paid to porn star Stormy Daniels in the closing days of the 2016 presidential election.

stop asking former nick stars what their thoughts are on the doc. Stop saying that the only reason they aren't saying anything is because they took hush money.

Like what if something did happen to them? It's none of your fucking business. You don't want to make sure they're okay, you're just nosey as fuck now and think you're entitled to their story
