It’s the end of Day 1 of deliberations.
How much longer do you think they’ll try to drag this out?
On Wednesday, outside the Manhattan courtroom, the former president had some choice words about Judge Juan Merchan.
According to Trump, the judge can “save his reputation” by dismissing the NY v. Trump case.
“The confusion is nobody knows what the crime is because there’s no crime..The judge ought to end it and save his reputation.”
What is the crime?
Whatever it is, the Democrats are positive Trump committed it. They just know he’s guilty.
But as for the majority of the population, we’re all here scratching our heads.
Luckily, normies are doing the same. It’s having the effect of waking them up.
Trump urges Judge Merchan to 'save his reputation' by dismissing trialhttps://t.co/4ZhKIbwku9
The DA did a bad job on charging a pass sitting president because he’s right even we don’t know or understand what the charges were. God knows there’s been worse presidents— [email protected] (@tamlee74728) May 29, 2024
Fox News reports:
Judge Juan Merchan can “save his reputation” if he dismisses the NY v. Trump case, former President Donald Trump said Wednesday in remarks outside the Manhattan courtroom.
“The confusion is nobody knows what the crime is because there’s no crime. Nobody knows what the crime is. The D.A. didn’t name the crime of the moment. They don’t know what the crime is. That’s what the problem is. It’s a disgrace. This thing ought to be ended immediately. The judge ought to end it and save his reputation,” Trump said Wednesday evening.
Trump’s comments came after jury deliberations began Wednesday.
Since those deliberations began, the jury has sent Merchan two notes, including asking to rehear his instructions. In New York criminal cases, juries are not allowed to receive copies of jury instructions or witness transcripts.
Trump is facing 34 counts of falsifying business records. Prosecutors worked to prove that Trump falsified business records to conceal a $130,000 payment to former porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election to quiet her claims of an alleged affair with Trump in 2006.
“The judge, who, as you know, is very conflicted and corrupt. Because of the confliction, very, very corrupt. Mother Teresa could not beat these charges. These charges are rigged. The whole thing is rigged,” Trump said late Wednesday morning as jury deliberations kicked off.
“The whole country is a mess, between the borders and fake elections, and you have a trial like this where the judge is so conflicted, he can’t breathe. He’s got to do his job. … it’s a disgrace. And I mean that, Mother Teresa could not beat those charges. But we’ll see. We’ll see how we do.”
ADVERTISEMENTTrump has repeatedly called on Merchan to recuse himself as well as dismiss the case, including last week when he said Merchan could “gain back respect” if he dismissed the case.
