New York grand jury votes to indict Trump in hush money case: Live updates

Finally!
Should have been one of the serious cases to go first (Georgia, Jan 6, or Florida). This one gives too much an appearance of a case brought for political reasons. This one only helps the MAGA crazies in their attempts to paint these cases as unjustified.

NOTHING good will come of this. This is just a big fat cut of red meat for people that love hating Trump and love worshiping Trump. Everyone else, just stuck in the middle. A politician being indicted for hush money is comical. The government is all ran based on bribes.

Personally, I'm pissed off that Max Fried pulled his hamstring.

Not too much of an appearance, it's 100% of the reason why it was brought on. If more than 100% was a real percentage, I'd argue that was the case. The democratic party loves Trump (not all voters, the party machine), it's the gift that keeps on giving.
To add - I don't want Trump to run. And if he does, there's a 0% chance I'm voting for him.

Yeah political reasons are certainly the reason this case was brought. The only ones who are happy about this one are the crazies left and right. I hear one of the real cases may be coming soon out of Atlanta.

The man is a criminal, and a sloppy one at that. Always has been. He got cocky and then he got caught. You cannot be a criminal and flaunt it. Al Capone went to jail on tax fraud. It’s the same thing.

Yes he's a criminal and I wish one of the real cases had been brought first. This one was brought for pure political reasons because the DA was in trouble with his base supporters for dropping the much stronger tax related case his department had when he took over. I think this is further evidence that DA's should never be an elected position - it causes them to do stupid things.

I was just trying to watch lots of baseball and mind my own business today. Opening day is like 1 of my 5 favorite days of the year. Fuck Bragg for that alone.
But I don't really think my post and your reply conflict much with each other.

More unelected bureaucrats is NEVER the answer. Government is the problem, not the solution. Voting is the only option us normal people have.
