Good point, if intent is used in determining sentences (which I would think it is???). Conspiracy is used in sentencing and that is why I believe Cohen was charged w/conspiracy.

All campaign funds are for the purpose of influencing an election. I don't understand what you are getting at here. If the money was not a campaign finance violation, then what violation exists?

Mark Levin, referring to the federal campaign laws, says that a campaign expenditure is solely for campaign activity. A candidate who spends his own money or even corporate money for an event that occurred not as a result of a campaign is not a campaign expenditure.

The event for which the expenditure was made in this case occurred before the campaign. The expenditure, itself, is not a violation. Neither was the "event." Now if the "event" is construed as being the suppression, the hushing, of the original event, then, regardless of what Cohen said, Trump can reasonably and legitimately say that it was to hide the affair from his wife, or family.

Prosecution is suggesting they have evidence of intent.

For all of us want-a-be attorneys, I think it will eventually be determined by congress and not in front of the courts. You listen to Fox or Trump who just spits out whatever comes out of Fox and it’s not a crime. Of course the other networks seem to believe there was intent and a crime. I can’t see Mueller bringing charges against a sitting president, not without an iron clad case, so the report will go to congress. If the mid terms flip things and the report is daming, then it’s probably a resignation ahead of impeachment.

As if the week wasn’t bad enough for DJT, learning the long time family accountant was given immunity in exchange for testimony, probably means Donald’s golf game is really going to suffer.

THAT.....is the LAMEST attempt at a troll I've ever seen. You're losing your touch.

I bet you can GOOGLE up some pointers on how to up your trolling skills.

It would take extra credit just to bring the grade on that one up to a D-

His best is driving him crazy, Sessions was reemed on tweeter for bringing charges against two of his earlier supporters. Between that and his requesal in the Russia probe, he has become a thorn in his side.

Some say the attention the McCain funeral has been given has driven Trump crazy.

Just today Trump said the Gov response to Maria was fantastic. When are some people going to realize he's a danger? Like I think about this mental condition and a serious international event...not confident.

Does it ever occur to you that your arguments and protestations have not been very convincing to us dummies who just can't see the reason and logic in your abusive, extravagant, hearsay, ad hominem attacks on Trump--such as the one you're expressing here?

And we are not convinced by repetition of talking points or of left wing characterizations.

Actually, you invite us to see in you that bombastic, lying buffoon character you paint Trump to be.

The despot in training was upset that the justice department is looking to prosecute two Republicans and that they did not take into account the fact they were Republicans. Sad

I posted this in the Hillary email thread and this was before the current tweet

some here are still worried about her e mails while the POTUS is attacking any department or persons all while promoting false narratives and make believe enemies... all to build an argument So that HE Trump can shut those critics down . while the GOP looks the other way


Funny how people refuse or are unable to connect the dots when it comes to Trump Heard one evangelical leader state Trump was more moral than Hillary
