The Trump trial farce

Published



The Democratic Party’s pathetic abuse of the criminal justice system to help reelect President Joe Biden reached a new low this week when Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who campaigned on a promise to prosecute Donald Trump, put pornographic actress Stormy Daniels on the stand solely to broadcast demeaning details of a sexual encounter with the former president two decades ago.

According to the indictment filed by Bragg, Trump is on trial for the crime of falsifying business records in 2016 and 2017. Bragg claims that money paid by Trump to his lawyer, Michael Cohen, was used to keep Daniels from speaking publicly before the 2016 presidential election.
