Why didn't these reporters ask this man, what exactly is the charge? And how should Trump have recorded the payment?

[@hobarttobor686]

that this guy, Jim Zirin , was ever a prosecutor is terrifying.

[@1247.cccccc]

He just exposes himself without a hint of concern. "You don't need evidence when the jury uses their common sense."

[@domainscience7717]

Even if he did what he is being accused of, what law was broken?

This interview clearly reflects that this prosecution is more about the 2024 election then Justice.

[@gwenthompson3247]

Exactly. It's not good.

It's about both. The truth was hidden from the American people in the 2016 election and because of this crime 2024 happened. Wise up!

Are you kidding. If Cohen had stolen from Stormy now that would have been bad. But stealing from Trump -30K - from the notorious cheapskate who stiffs his workers and brags about it - I say great! Good for you Michael! The jury is likely going to feel the same.

[@baronvonraschke77]

So when is Merchan going to do the speech from the movie Presumed Innocent? "Mr. Sabbich (Trump) , you are discharged, sir. And I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am that any of this has taken place. Not even the pleasure of seeing you free can make up for this, this disgrace to the cause of justice. I wish you Godspeed. Case dismissed."

That was fiction; Merchan is scum in reality.
