The Trump Card...

Yes, it is perfectly fine to use the statute of limitations argument ... if the statute of limitations actually applies. But in this case, it does not yet apply. It could apply at a later date, but it does not apply now. And if charges are brought before the statute of limitations expires, the statute of limitations argument becomes irrelevant.
It has been 8 years and they are just NOW pressing charges????? When no federal charges were ever filed by federal prosecutors.

Biden has done treason level crimes with the taking of classified documents as vice president and copying information over to note books.....and then stored said documents in unsecured places.
Trump had former classified documents stored in a secure room with even extra locks when asked to add them along with secret service as added security.
But trump is a criminal because he paid off a sleazy lawyer that later tried to extort money from nike.
I see trump's attorneys using both the statute of limitations and the fact that the lawyer was put in jail for extortion.....if it gos to trial.
Your ability to twist logic is highly refined.


And there is the TRUE meaning of Trump derangement syndrome. He does nothing wrong.....

This is coming from a soft-on-crime DA with a 51% felony conviction rate and 28% on misdemeanors. Political persecution designed to drag out through the election year.

Yes it has been a number of years (7, not 8).
Yes, they are just now expected to press charges.
Yes, no federal charges on this matter have been filed by federal prosecutors.

And, yes, if an indictment is issued by the grand jury and charges are filed by the Manhattan DA, Trump will have to answer in court.

It happened in or before 2016 so 7.5 years.

He's soft on crime, but wants to enhance this supposed misdemeanor to a felony because Trump.

On Truth, Trump has lashed out at Desantis talking about the crime and economy in Florida is soooo bad, but for the last few years the Republicans have said that all of the Democrat cities/states have out of control crime.

He just showed how that is a lie, does he understand what he just did?????

Trump's Evaporating Privilege Protections

I don't keep an item-by-item scoresheet of Trump's court battles. Recent events leave me wondering this. Trump has made numerous claims regarding attorney client privilege and executive privilege. Have ANY of them been upheld when challenged in court?

Two notable cases came into the news this week. (1) Trump's claim of executive privilege regarding Mark Meadows was denied. Meadows is now required to testify as a witness before the Jan 6 grand jury. (2) Trump attorney Even Corcoran's attorney client privilege was pierced by the court under the crime-fraud exception. He is a key witness in the Mar-a-Lago documents investigation.

Both men were very close to Trump during critical times, and both are now required to provide testimony and evidence the grand jury and prosecutors demand. They may plead the 5th, but if investigators grant them immunity from prosecution, they will be required to provide everything the prosecutors and grand juries want.

Trump is in deep legal trouble and as the privilege claims continue to evaporate, it gets deeper and deeper.

Trump's claim of executive privilege regarding Mark Meadows was denied. Meadows is now required to testify as a witness before the Jan 6 grand jury.
Additionally, the same judge denied executive privilege regarding:

former White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino
former national security advisor Robert O’Brien
former senior aide Stephen Miller
former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe
former deputy Homeland Security Secretary Ken Cuccinelli
former assistant Nick Luna
former White House Presidential Personnel Office director John McEntee. (Source)

All are now required to provide their testimony and evidence to the grand jury.
