    Trump had to pay 450,000,000 now will have to 38.8% of the fine. He's getting off almost Scot free.

    I read the article. And I don’t believe the white house that says Biden wasn’t involved in his son’s business meetings or didn’t meet them. They give anyone with any sense no reason to believe them.

    The floor noticed some irregular markings on the cards, everything is frozen and they are investigating the legitimacy of Ghetto James's hand.

    No, instead of having to put up the whole fine to be able to appeal he now only has to put up $175m. IF he does, then he can appeal the amount of the fine, which could be reduced. But, best case, for tRaitor tRump he's going to be out a substantial amount of money when it's all over, even if the find is "reduced" on appeal.

    If you had read the article, you'd know that several people were invited that day for a speech. There is no evidence that the two even spoke, just like there is no evidence for your accusations about Joe. Your position, again, by your own admission, is based on suspicions with no evidence to back them up. This is pure feelings over facts.

    Best case for tRaitor tRump, is he's out hundreds of millions of dollars. The trial before Judge Erngoron was to determine the fine, not IF he would be fined. A.G. James won the game in the previous trial; this is just about the size of the pot.

    Sometimes you have to wonder on how Trump is going to come up with that amount. To Trump, it would be better than the $450,000,000 he would have to pay.

    Seems reasonable. Until appeals are exhausted, it makes no sense to do damage that can't be undone, to the extent practical. This adjustment strikes a balance.

    IF what he's claimed about cash on hand is true, and why would anyone believe that. But, IF! Then he should make the bond. But that doesn't mean he's off the hook for more money than most people see in a lifetime.

    Whatever labels you might apply to Trump, he's sure as hell viable and that is what scares the Democrat core leadership.

    Again… coming from the guy who already has been proven to lie and use aliases in email chains… no I don’t trust the White House. I guarantee given a very in depth investigation I’m sure it would be proven.

    Which has absolutely nothing to do with this trial. Of course Democrats are scared of the prospect of tRaitor tRump becoming president again; ALL Americans should be.

    I would agree with that statement. $175M is not chump change. Get some money out of him for now, and let him appeal the full amount. Even if the appeal resulted in just the $175M as an ultimate settlement, that's still a loss for Trump Org, and Trump Org is still guilty of a felony conviction. Let' see how Trump starts to blabber about victory. Don't think the new appeals court won't be noting the arrogance and narcissism.

    And to prove that they had a meeting with the VP here is the paperwork to back it up.




    Yet the white house lied again… shocking.

    Nothing here in the video actually addresses the White House's response. In fact, it would be very easy for this lawyer to disprove! Yet she's silent. Instead, it looks like she didn't even make an attempt at all to look into the nature of the meeting, which would be in keeping with some of her other failures.

    This was a publicized event / party at the VP's residence, not the White House, with 400+ guests, in photos and on video, with even Newsweek - your article source - stating in a follow-up that "any notion this was a private face-to-face meeting with the vice president at the White House appears to be misleading".

    Yes, her and 455 other people logged in at the same time to the same event.

    Cohen handed over 3 previous perjury verdicts from other folks previous cases as evidence for his probation removal. He got them from Google and gave them to his lawyers... they gave them to a federal court... except..... the cases did not exist.. The judge was not humored..

    Not as an appointment for the VP as this shows.

    Seriously… you want to talk as if you’re not partisan and you believe what the white house says over actual physical paperwork. That’s amazing

    Asset seizure would have been the best political outcome for DJT. Such blatant political persecution might well have given him an overwhelming majority of the popular vote.
    Maybe even enough to win an EC victory.

    Beyond that Trump is probably eager to cut any business ties with NY, and after the election, the scofflaw court decision might well be overturned with Trump recovering damages for all the malicious prosecution, abuse of process, and crude political persecution.

    NY, and NYC are very deep pocketed defendants. The pockets of governments are virtually bottomless.
    Treasuries are tempting targets for tort lawyers. NYC could pay out over $1 Trillion and still have hundreds of billions left to compensate future victims. :)

    Presidential politics has everything to do with this trial.

    Only because tRaitor tRump is making it. But, in fact, tRaitor tRump committed fraud ... again. That's what the trial IS about.

    That's exactly what it shows! It's an extract from the visitor logs. Take a closer look. It shows an appointment time of 6.30pm at the VP's residence, on the side lawn/tent with 456 people, all of whom have exactly the same appointment in the visitor log.
