Just before Trump’s sentencing in the sketchy Stormy Daniels hush money case, ABC Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl spoke critically of the charges.
My understanding is that Trump's felony conviction resulted from an essentialy crafted NY State statute, adding felonious charges when a connection can be made to election fraud. I'm not a supporter of the former and incoming president, but have always thought the circumstances of this charge and conviction were contrived.
It’s fascinating to see how many center-left personalities and CEO’s have recently reshaped their views in a more conservative direction. And Trump hasn’t even been sworn in yet! Is that because they now feel free to say what they really believe, or is this more moderate shift more a matter of blowing with the winds of a Trump administration? Regardless, the Orange Man Bad resistance seems to have largely evaporated.
The Resistance is alive and well. Did Jon Karl say that on ABC? No, at a book store. Jen Psaki somehow blames Musk and Trump for the LA fires. I wish I could share your cautious optimism.
I raise cattle. When the herd is full and lying down and chewing their cud, it's impossible to get the herd to move. They just look at you and an individual cow won't even get up until you walk right up to her and prod her. Then she'll just get up, shit, and stand there looking at you until she turns her ass to you to kick you if you are dumb enough to stand in the wrong spot. So you have to drive into the field with a car, and bang on the door with your hand, and honk and drive back and forth and wave a flag on the edge of the herd opposite the side of the direction you want them to go. Finally some of them will stand and shit, thereby blocking the view of the rest of the herd of what's causing the ruckus. This fact makes them stand up and shit also, but they still aren't moving, they're looking at you, but at least they're now on their feet. So you drive up along the side of the herd back and forth, now parallel with the direction they need to move. So they'll start to move to get away from you, but they're now moving in a circular direction away from you, but cutting off the potential movement of the cattle at the back of the herd. The point is, you have to first alarm the herd, and then just get it moving, even if it's the wrong direction, and then use slight adjustments to get them to go in the right direction. Drones, fires, assassinations, pandemics, truck bombs, terrorists, are the equivalent of waving flags and banging on doors trying to get the herd to move. My question to you is, which gate are they trying to get us to go through?
It’s a cabal working on many fronts. Americans are oblivious to the fact that a revolution is concocted primary by these public intellectuals. Castro was a lawyer, the Cuban Revolution was a kind of tawdry lawfare with guns bought with rich sympathizer’s money. You see Mangione and you’ve seen Che Guevara, son of wealthy Argentinian Socialists. The goal is to undermine and erode. A desperate society looks for trust wherever it can find it: I don’t think Trump is capable of snuffing the fires of the Socialist revolution. The left can use it’s magic wand and turn Bush and Cheney into honorable freedom fighters.
No, the misdemeanor falsifying business records began with the payment to Mike Cohen in Oct.of 2016. NY AG argued this resulted in suppression of info that might have affected election outcome. Pretty fucking speculative at best to elevates charge to a felony.

It's transparently LAWFARE... How many women did Bill Clinton pay-off?
Including Hillary…? More than Trump did.

Too little, too late, Jonathan.
Funny how the misdemeanor that supposed warranted a felony conviction for affecting an election happened in 2017, after the election was over ...
No, the misdemeanor falsifying business records began with the payment to Mike Cohen in Oct.of 2016. NY AG argued this resulted in suppression of info that might have affected election outcome. Pretty fucking speculative at best to elevates charge to a felony.
I missed that one, whichever summary I referred to (should have cited it) said the payments in question in the court case were all in 2017.
They're all weathervanes, swinging around with the political winds. Zuckerberg too.
No one with a brain cares or believes anything Jon Karl has to say. He’s been lying too long and has made himself completely irrelevant.
