LOL - many criminal cases have testimony from other convicted criminals. Look at all the mob trials. The jury will determine credibility based on their testimony and other evidence fitting together.
'Squealing like a pig': Paul Begala flattens conservatives whining that Trump indictment is 'political'

This is a ridiculous argument. New York City isn’t some random municipality. It’s where Trump lived and based his business. It’s the jurisdiction he chose.
I never said it was a crime...I was responding to the quote from the lawyer who called his lies "cryptic". And if Cohen can have his testimony impeached for lying, Trump better not take the stand.
Got it. Don’t prosecute criminals. That’s all you had to say. Trump is a private citizen, not a president. If Biden turns into a mob boss, then prosecute him, too.
I never said the Dems were "virtuous".
They simply hold their own accountable, and to the Rule of Law. That is explicitly NOT what the GOP does.
Cohen was charged and imprisoned based on these same actions.
Is he "prosecutable", but Trump is not?
Explain.
So, the entire grand jury was "liberal Dems out to get Trump"
Do I have your take here correct?
....and the reporting on Trump's case is there are 34 counts.
"Multitude", in case you don't understand that part.
""No!" Begala shot back. "If they were every one of those Republican politicians needs to be asked this what did you say when Michael Cohen was prosecuted for the same crime?"
Cohen plead guilty to tax evasion, lying to a financial institution and making illegal political contributions. I don't believe any of those are what Trump is being charged with

It can be political and also be illegal. It's not binary. The DA isn't charging him without crimes present. So it isn't 💯 political.
trumpies feel comfortable that all Bragg has is Cohen's testimony. Big shock coming.
No one has seen the indictment for christs sake. Speculation is 30 counts. So, legal eagle, provide us with details of the "worthwhilelessness" of this process. And right-wing nuts, the overall crime rate has not radically changed in NYC. Try as Stupid TV attempts to portray otherwise by running subway station video loops to trick their idiot viewers into thinking they are actually seeing real-time action. As well as the other lies they have been duping their viewers for decades.
He lied to a financial institution to obtain the hush money. That money was reimbursed by Trump. There is a direct line there. The illegal campaign contribution was to who? Trump is simply on the other side of the crimes for which Cohen was convicted. Are you now going to claim that Trump can use Cohen to obtain a loan illegally to carry out a crime and be guilty of nothing?
Where is the statement of fact, dumbass? Are you going to claim Trump doesn't lie a lot? You REALLY have no idea what you're talking about. You should stop. You're desperately flailing and you look like an idiot.
Ok crime hasn’t gone up, lol. Here it is from both sides of the aisle.
Major Crimes Rose 22 Percent in New York City, Even as Shootings Fell
Homicides fell last year to their lowest level since 2019, before the pandemic, but other categories of crime, including robbery and burglary, drove the overall increase compared with 2021.
NYC saw record levels of felony crimes last year, most in over 15 years
Mayor Adams, a former cop who ran a public safety platform, repeatedly dismissed concerns of crime as a “perception” created by the city’s media.

And argument wasn’t on crime which has gone up it’s about DA being soft on it.
Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg has downgraded over half of felony cases
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has downgraded more than half of his felony cases to misdemeanors since taking office on January 1 as crime continues to escalate in the Big Apple.

Trump could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Ave. republicans would say prosecution was politically motivated
The rabid defense of a guy who ****ed a porn star while his wife was home pregnant with his son and then later had her paid off to stay quiet to run for President and then as president paid the guy who paid her off back illegally is amazing from the moral authority of the right.
The bulk of the new GOP is the biggest bunch of hypocrites anywhere at anytime. A bunch of people who think they are great Christians, true Patriots, and morally superior people and yet follow not at all the teachings of Christ, are treasonous to federal government and live largely amoral lives.

And then the person who made the payment - using illegally obtained funds - was "paid off" to cover it up.
