Trump of the moral failing of all of the republicans that have surrounded him with this baseless theory that undermines our belief in the system of the criminal justice system and democracy itself. i also think it is stupid politically. what they are doing is stupid political things this week, and here is why. the voters that they need to be persuaded to vote for trump are not the voters persuaded around personal grievance about donald trump s criminality. they do respond to grievance populism and economics that we are being left behind. on that it is still actually effective particularly in a climate where a lot of voters have economic anxiety regardless of where the facts are, but this focus on the justice system and coming after donald trump without any reason, so they will come after you. as somebody hopes republicans ....

Attorney said about that. i really do not think a 20 and $30 donation lies to the level of a serious conflict. obviously others who are speaking for the president strongly disagree with that. i think he handled a very difficult trial with a neutral hand and gave the president every benefit of the doubt that he was entitled to. what is your assessment of the judge s approach? i think i agree with the said earlier about the measured approach. even the temperamental throughout the trial. talking about the judge handing certain victories to the defense and some to the prosecution. whether it is objections or anything else. during today s morning news interviews one of trump s attorneys had criticized the so- called rulings that had limited or essentially made it clear to trump that if he were to take ....

Donald trump could have conceded the affair and likely had it been any other defendant he would have conceded, and i think a fair is a polite word. it really is a one-time sexual encounter. jurors ultimately did not believe that didn t take place. daniels was clear in her testimony. and the problem the defense confronts in this situation is when lawyers have a client who will not face the facts of the case and let them craft a defense that takes into account the facts that are going to be established in court. trump s lawyers could have focused on whether or not he was aware of the repayment scheme after conceding that relationship existed and could have come off a lot more credibly in front of the jury, but because from step one they were forced to take positions the jury that frankly could not credit they ended up in a bad position at the end. ....
