This Verdict is a Disgrace, and They Will Rue the Day

By Rich Kozlovich

We already know

Trump was found guilty of all 34 counts in this fraudulent election interference trial.   And exactly what crime did he commit for which the jury found him guilty.  No one really knows!

 Johnathan Turley, hardly a conservative, noted:

"I obviously disagree with this verdict as do many others"..... "eventually" either at the state or federal level"...."However, this was the worst expectation for a trial in Manhattan. I am saddened by the result more for the New York legal system than the former president. I had hoped that the jurors might redeem the integrity of a system that has been used for political purposes.".............

"I think, as I said before, that this case was legally unfounded. When they were reading those guilty verdicts, the one thing that we didn't know is really what he was found guilty of. Because if you remember, the judge allowed the jury to find guilt on any one of the three secondary crimes," ......'That meant the jury didn't have to determine exactly what crime was committed."'................"We weren't told whether the jury found any one of those crimes, whether they found all three of those crimes. I'm not too sure we will know that. That's one of the many issues that I think presents reversible problems in this case,"

A trial where the 'underlying crimes' were never stated until the prosecutors closing comments to the jury, in violation of federal law.   In this article  “They Will Rue the Day”: Megyn Kelly Says Country “Disgraced” With Trump Guilty Verdict saying:

 “It wasn’t until closing arguments yesterday when the prosecution got up second, because under New York law, unlike in most places, the defense has to go first and the prosecution goes second,” Kelly said. “And after the defense attorney had already sat down, that’s when we finally learned what the underlying crime was.”

 “He [prosecutor, Joshua Steinglass] got up there and while he cast a wide net, still saying it could have been a tax violation, it could have been falsification of other records like double falsifications, but really they’re hanging their hats on the violation of FECA [Federal Election Campaign Act],” she added. “That’s what the prosecution drove home. That’s the principal basis for this entire case. He [Bragg] didn’t want us to know because that’s a federal statute.”

 “He [prosecutor, Joshua Steinglass] got up there and while he cast a wide net, still saying it could have been a tax violation, it could have been falsification of other records like double falsifications, but really they’re hanging their hats on the violation of FECA [Federal Election Campaign Act],” she added. “That’s what the prosecution drove home. That’s the principal basis for this entire case. He [Bragg] didn’t want us to know because that’s a federal statute.”

Make no mistake, this will come back to haunt them, as this will have long term consequences, and is being termed a ‘Dark Day for America’:

” Republican officials are expressing outrage after a New York jury found former U.S. President Donald Trump guilty in his business records trial, accusing the Biden administration of using “lawfare seen in third world countries” while warning that if political opponents can target a former president, “they can do it to anyone.”

Judge Pirro called the court a “kangaroo court” saying: 

The verdict was the product of something from a third-world country..........“But now we’ve got one of the most famous individuals in the world, the former president of the United States, who can be taken down by a George Soros-funded prosecutor on a crime that doesn’t exist, where not one person put his finger anywhere near that bookkeeping, and now they are going to return a verdict and say, ‘Oh, he is guilty, he is definitely guilty.’ This is a jury pool made out of 85%-90% of the people are anti-Trump, pro-anybody, anti-Trump — the jury pool,”...........

This corrupt trial, corrupt prosecutor, corrupt judge, and a jury with a corrupt verdict have now created an open season on candidates.  Picture the following:

“The rural DA will impanel a grand jury in the 80% red county. The grand jury will indict Joe or Hunter or both Bidens on conspiracy to commit bribery charges. Like the New York case (against Trump), it will be mostly smoke and mirrors surrounding very unsavory activity.” “I do think it has opened the door, now, to at least entertaining that possibility,” said former Deputy Attorney General Tom Dupree. “You look at … crusading DAs of a conservative bent wanting to make a name for themselves."

Have no doubt, many in the GOP believe in playing hard ball, and they will have to retaliate, but in order to do that, they must win, and this verdict just gave the House, the Senate, and the White House to the GOP.   The GOP’s online donation platform overwhelmed, and Trump's supporters are fired up!

It also seems clear this has created a backlash in the public's mind, and this will guarantee a Trump Victory in November, even  Actor Michael Rapaport Predicts Trump will win after this travesty.  Of course he's not among the usual Hollywood and media talking heads.  The kangaroos are dancing, nitwits like Maddow wants to thank the jury, because now the left can claim Trump is a convicted felon, the Biden campaign cheers for convicting opponent, Hollywood cries with tears of joy, and all the Anti-Trump Activists Celebrate. Why?  Because this corrupt trial turning America into a Banana Republic?

“When statesmen forsake their own private conscience for the sake of their public duties, they lead their country by a short route to chaos.” Sir Thomas More in A Man For All Seasons.

And just like the Nazi's convicted at Nuremberg for crimes against humanity, "who were just obeying orders",  Alvin Bragg was just doing his job 

But,"it ain't over till it's over", and the real verdict will be made by America on November fifth, and then the fire works will really start.
