#Trump #hushmoney #gagorder
“We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.” Benjamin Franklin ~ This sums up most Trump supporters.
Meanwhile Biden is the most hated President in 70 years.
Says the guy that supports Joe Biden that has a 28% approval rating lowest of any president ever.
Love this. Vote blue not stupid😅
trump showed them how to break the social contract by lying continually. His supporters only deserve contempt and ridicule, not debates.
What an ignorant remark. Trump WILL be President in Nov. There is NOTHING you can do to stop it. Vote Trump in 2024. I can't listen to Bidens slobbering BS and Lies any longer. Trump 2024
Never trust a former president who wears Jim Bakker’s haircut and Tammy Faye’s makeup.
“I grew up in a black church” joe LIEden
You just described Joy Reid.

The insurrection was never about voter fraud but about keeping power. Same as the abortion fight is not and never has been about pro life but about control over women.
@@NotificationsAreDaddy27 there was no insurrection it was a peaceful protest with a few people that got out of hand because they do realize there was voter fraud everybody knows there was just some people are willing to accept it and others are willing to fight for it.
As a black man I will support the guy with 81 years behind him over the guy with 91 criminal charges in front of him.
"Then you ain't black!" -Joe Biden
Why do you have to inject your race?
Amen
AI chat bots now identify as black apparently. They must want reparations also
FDT, You ain't black unless Biden says you are!!!!!!
Thanks Ari for the commentary. Any Judge with courage and conviction to the law would jail him for 9 counts of contempt of court. Currently, they are allowing him to be above the law
Oh yeah definitely The Judge you mean Right, because it's against the law for his family members to make money involved in any way from the case that the judge is currently presiding over ,,Hummm guess he's above the law
There is no question that life in America is actually better right now because of Biden’s stable leadership than it was under Trump’s chaotic and corrupt leadership.
oNLY POLITICIANS THINK THAT.
🤣
@@mikebrigs1218 Thank you for tacitilly agreeing that Trump supporters do not think. I love that progress for you.
Your stability is in question

We should get rid of the Electoral College. Popular vote, straight and simple
I agree but I think there's simply too many people to do it right. It worked in the 18th century when we were a nation of millions. Now we're a nation of hundreds of millions. We'd need an extreme infrastructure overhaul to handle every single vote.
@Almora-gp3hs we already count every single vote. Every election there are two talleys given, the popular vote total, and the electoral vote total
@user-gi9np5vp2x And yet the majority often loses due to the electoral college. Like you said. I mean a total overhaul. I like the idea of mail in votes but for every single person to vote we'd need to massively boost our postal service and hire many more people. That, and make voting day a holiday. But I'm certain that some people won't like that idea. It'd limit their chances to intimidate voters I to staying at work, like they did in 2016.
Right!! Save the nation!
To trump if you can't take it, don't dish it out Donny boy.
When the lawyers continuously lie about Trump not being able to speak, the judge should say - "OK in those speeches, were where his policies, the plans for his administration, his governing phlosophy? All we hear is victimhood and complaining. So no, Trump is not gagged with regard to running for office, he is just choosing not to speak on those topics."
He's running for his life not running to help america
Well said.
Exactly; as if there's a shortage of things to talk about as a presidential candidate! 😂
I’m very proud to say that the United States is a much better country to live in right now because we don’t have a corrupt leader like Trump as president anymore.
The better American majority have to find a way to stop letting the worst minority boss them around.
I disagree. Inflation is the worse I’ve ever seen. The jobs market is getting worse and hurting so many productive workers
@@williamstafford8248 Biden won't leave a 8 trillion dollar added to the debt like trump did. trump added more than 23% to the 248 year old debt in 4 years, what a loser.
Donald Trump has always been generous, his entire life. People don't know that. He gives anonymously, not braggadocious about what he does for people. He loves America, America first.

trump: "It was a PERFECT phone call with Cohen. Perfect.:
I lost my best friend and the father of my children to a cult. Years ago I was married to a man who was kind, compassionate and rational. I didn't pay attention to what he was watching on the Internet. He said a few things that made me look at him funny. I remember the day he started telling me about a guy named Alex Jones. He told me he has proof that the shooting at Sandy Hook elementary was a false flag. It stopped me in my tracks. I knew about it and watched the coverage. I immediately said it was definitely not faked. That's the day I realized he was changing. From that day everything went downhill. I was helpless to bring him back to reality. Eventually my entire family went MAGA! EXCEPT FOR ME! My ex would scream at me for talking to our friends wives! Eventually I was no longer welcomed to participate in gatherings because I caused problems with my mouth. My male family members, friends and coworkers became furious with my opinions about MAGA! I am currently kicked out of my own family. I am told that I suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome. I am helpless to reach my own children. My daughters are married to MAGA males who refuse to allow me to see my grandchildren because I am clearly deranged. I have cried a billion tears and I expect a billion more. I cannot fathom how anyone would believe the lies and think that guy was anything but a vile grotesque criminal who belongs in prison. My fantasy also includes the truth and nothing but the truth about the guy is finally absorbed by my family members. VOTE BLUE 💙 VOTE AGAINST ALL THINGS MAGA! 😢
Stay strong, stay BLUE
The rest of your family is profoundly brainwashed by Foxic News & other far right media. I remember when western journalists were first allowed in the former Soviet Union, the Soviet citizens they interviewed sounded EXACTLY like maga supporters with their denial of objective facts. That's what decades of propagandizing will do.
I'm really sorry to hear this. There are many who have lost family members to this madness, but you have lost all your family. That must be so hard. Get friends on the side of reality to make sure you keep sane, they won't replace your family but you need something. Watch Beau of the Fifth Column, Trae Crowder and Tennessee Brandon. Look for topics your family can relate to and send them the videos, not too many, just the odd one. The aim is to get them to question one little thing, just start them questioning, then get them questioning more. The BS will unravel eventually but they key is to get that first little thing like a jumper breaking one stitch somewhere and then gradually falling apart.
It looks like many people can't see reality or ignore it, blue or red does it matter? look at the politicians the majority are old men who have been in their jobs for years going through many elections they always stay in their seats, why is it that people vote and the result is always the same? they play with the majority of a few and change it between them, the slaves fight each other on the street and at home while the politicians laugh all the way to the banks.
I am so sorry, dear :( wishing you all the best and I hope you have a network of friends that can support you so you don't have to go through this alone.
If a juror gets confused enough about this case to cause the jury to hang, then I will question weather that juror could complete one of those connect-the-dot games in a children's puzzle book.
I think there are two lawyers on the jury, hopefully they will be able to explain to anyone who is confused. But yes, you do wonder if jury service should come with some form of basic logical thinking test.
Let's get Trump and most of the GOP out by voting blue get out and vote please.
This is far from a complicated theory. It's very simple if you know how to read English and comprehend what you read and apply the law. Cases don't get much easier with the mountain of evidence the State has.
DONALD , NO DISCIPLINE, POOR ETHICS, NO SHAME, SICK. . THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO SUPPORTS HIM WHY??
I would like an investigation into what he spent eight trillion dollars on putting us in debt.
Part of that was because he signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), a *$1.9 TRILLION* dollar tax bill favoring corporations and wealthy Americans, which caused income tax revenue for the US to go down significantly. It's kind of like someone cutting your wages but your bills remain and you have less per month to pay them. I am sure there were other reasons too.
Trump is a beacon of ignorance. What a tool.
What are your pronouns?
Remember when no body cared what you think and STILL voted for trump??
If Trump is ignorant then you Dems are in a coma.
DJT has never been convicted of anything! He's a billionair , and he got his money by WORKING... something the Dem party wouldn't know about. The food stamp party! Leaches. gimmie sompin free!
The judge should be asking the key questions! This should be an open shut case and the delay only works for Trump!
That sketch at 00:10 mark! LOL Priceless!
I don't know about you guys but it feels really good to know that Trump is going to prison.
Hey Todd. "Donnie" isn't being "forced" to run for president, so your explanation doesn't hold water ... or anything else.
While there may be an appearance of complexity in manner the prosecutors are are presenting their case, I believe the closing argument will connect the dots and leave a clear picture to the jurors to avert a mistrial.
Donald Von ShitzinPants
If that was you or me we would have been handcuffed locked up and sitting in a cold jail cell why not is he ?

Odor in the court
Lawyer: "He has to be able to go speak!" Judge: "Then have him actually speak about what GOOD he's going to do for America if elected." Lawyer: "But your honor, my client is under oath to tell the truth"
It fose t matter if his runing for president hes not abub the law he neds to respect and atend anger management.

Okay it's time to give the phone back to your mommy
It is not complicated
I wish someone would talk to Trumps teachers that Cohen had NDAs made for. I mean he’s old asf what teacher could still even be alive let alone remember Donald but they still signed NDAs…so Why have them?
"Judges and juries are 'rabid' Manson haters." - Charles Manson.
Put him in prison for treason!!
BRUH, I GOT LOCKED UP AS A TEEN FOR BEING 5 MINS LATE TO COURT...., BUT TRUMP CAN DISRESPECT, VIOLATE AND DISREGARD COURT ORDERS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. IF JAIL IS PROPER PUNISHMENT FOR A 19 YEAR OLD DRIVING WITHOUT INSURANCE (WHICH I COULDNT AFFORD), JAIL IS PROPER FOR THIS GUY.
I am so sick of hearing Trump's voice that I wish the Judge would just shut him up completely. Why do I have to listen to his lies? I'm not on the jury.
"Donald Von Shitzenpants" trends #1 and gets entered into the official court record. Two points for Michael Cohen. There's nothing you can do to a narcissist worse than public humiliation. It's called narcissistic mortification.

Interesting commentary.
Gag order matters should be dealt with on Wednesdays with trump and his attorneys present and the jury enjoying their day off.
Simple,Don’t want to have a gag order placed on you, then don’t run for office.
He’s not even talking about how he’s gonna run the country. What is his plan? Nothing he just comes out of court crying and complaining about how unfair they’re treating him a criminal.
Every show I watch that mentions Karen McDougal uses the same picture of her. Surely, that isn't her best. Mix it up a bit, people.
I would think she has her image copywrited and has only released one for use.
Funny he gag me but yet he speaks.The things people get away with.Stay well Ari.🙏🙏🙏
Those giant satchels under Trump's eyes look full of tears, ready to spill. 😂
I am sure that none of this is being discussed on Fox. Until Fox and NewsMax start telling everyone about the cover-up we are doomed.
Trump is truly amazing; I don't mean in a "good" way! Oh my, my my "Please Vote 🗳 Blue up and down the ballot!" Thanks Ari for your in depth report🙏💙
45/47 . Get used to it😂😂😂
What if Biden defeats Trump again?
Is that his proposed prison number?
You can elect him, he won't be President again...watch this space.
To disagree slightly. I don't think that Trump misunderstood the word tesitfy. He knows exactly what the difference is between making a statement, under oath, in the witness box and rabbiting on to the media. What he is doing is trying to prime his base with an excuse when he refuses to go into the witness box - "the judge wouldn't let me".
The lawyer at the end doesn't seem to understand that Trump can't admit to any of it. Doesnt matter if that would be his best defense. So while a lawyer could win this case for Trump, they actually can't win because of Trump. Make sense?
Benedict Donald's world reminds me of the villains in the movie Fargo. Imagine that you are such a slimy sociopath, that all of your friends and associates are just like you, and will throw you into the proverbial wood chipper to make a buck or save their own backside. It is a beautiful thing to watch.
These political Trump trials are very entertaining

Sit down Lady, Jurors are more intelligent than you give them credit for. 83k remember? 'It's not the crime, it's the cover-up'.
For sane adults, there are only two options: 1) Somehow there is the most inconceivable and complex conspiracy to stop the worst possible spokesperson for unpopular policies, (but not stop the many other people advancing those policies) or 2) He is a serial con-man and the law is slowly, but finally, catching up.

Slow down, you put the cart before the horse. Sound like a lawyer who can talk with both sides of her mouth...
She was definitely pro-Trump. The sad part is she may be right, but not for the reasons she gave. I think that tRump has polluted the jury pool long before they were selected with his constant attacks. I am hoping that he hasn't.
Layoffs have begun. Crime is out of control. In n out closed their 1st restaurant ever thanks to democrat policies. None of that matters. Only Trump 🤭
Very deceiving on Trump's part and it could cost him the Presidency!I don't want to watch this anymore!

You're completely ignoring the fact that the British and the League of Nations were defining a territory called Palestine in 1922, before Arrafat was born. That Palestine is roughly what is modern day Israel plus the West Bank and Gaza..
He cant speak about one effing subject but to trump he knows how to act the soft sh1t and still pretend he's strong. If the judges just applied the the law as they would with any defendant we wouldn't have all this nonsense.
