Trump speaks before historic criminal trial over ‘hush money’

are you you lose voters if
there this is an assault on America
nothing like this has ever happened
before there’s never been anything like
it every legal scholar said this case is
nonsense it should never have been
brought it doesn’t deserve anything like
this there is no case and they’ve said
it people that don’t necessarily follow
or like Donald Trump said this is an
outrage that this case was brought this
is political persecution this is a
persecution like never before nobody’s
ever seen anything like it and again
it’s a case that should have never been
brought it’s an assault on America and
that’s why I’m very proud to be here
this is an assault on our country and
it’s a country that’s failing
it’s a country that’s run by an
incompetent man who’s very much involved
in this case this is really an attack on
a political opponent that’s all it is so
I’m very honored to be here thank you
very
much
[Applause]
that how will you be campaigning over
the next couple weeks

Donald Trump was seen arriving in court on Monday in his criminal trial involving the adult film actor Stormy Daniels and the former Playboy model Karen McDougal. Trump, the first former US president to face a criminal trial, is accused of paying Daniels and McDougal to cover up alleged extramarital liaisons that could have damaged his candidacy in the 2016 election. The trial is scheduled to start this morning, with jury selection in Manhattan supreme court.

  8. Conviction only increases the Chances of Trump winning in November.

    Conviction does not stop Trump from running for President.

    Trump can win election sitting in the Prison, and his victory would be the

    most spectacular thing ever to happen in American History.

  10. If the lawyers representing a hospital meet with the lawyers representing a patient who was injured by malpractice, and agree to pay X dollars to the patient, in exchange for the patient and his family NOT pursuing legal action agasinst the hospital, that is called a "negotiated settlement" and is legal.

    If an individual agrees to pay X dollars to another individual who he was alleged to have done some harm to, in exchange for that person agreeing NOT to pursue legal action against him, that is called "hush money", and apparently it's illegal…sometimes?

    They're ultimately the same thing., Why is one legal, and the other, not?

  15. This DA says Trump falsified financial records to coverup an underlying felony crime, can anybody tell me what that underlying felony crime was?

  18. First time a tart blackmails someone and her client gets charged and she and her conniving lawyer, whose in jail, gets paid and the victim charged.

  27. New York trial is all about election interference as is the case in Georgia. Trump is correct. It is an assault on America's freedoms.

  30. I think trump is going to pull a darrell brooks defense: i don't understand; i dont consent being called that name; I'm here as a representative for my client the straw man; ojection-revelancy; objection-leading.

  31. Our justice system is corrupted just like our government is corrupt it just like Joe Biden is corrupted the state and government is corrupt our government is ran by a bunch of liars hypocrites to face mother Truckers

  36. So a hush payment is at most a misdemeanour and so already time barred but somehow the Democrats have made it a felony? They’re just making laws and crimes up.

  39. He should have never been allowed to be on any ballot PERIOD. He should have been told you are being investigated so chances of you being on the ballot is null & void
