Earlier this week, crooked New York Judge Juan Merchan rejected a recusal request for the third time in Trump’s “hush money” case.
The dirty judge’s decision was released to the public on Wednesday.
Judge Merchan’s daughter’s platform made tens of millions of dollars from her father’s case against Trump.
President Trump is STILL under a partial gag order in the case. Can someone please explain how this is legal? And why are Republicans not outraged by this criminal lawfare against the party’s presidential candidate?

While he is going to be overturned and likely crucified upon appeal, this judge is king in his own courtroom.
He was convinced on day one that he was going to send Trump to jail. (Would love to see the SS tell the court bailiff "just try it" after sentencing). Praying that this judge has a come to Jesus moment, one way or another before September.

In my mind, this is an “either/or” situation.
Either he goes to jail and wins all 50 states, OR he goes to jail and there is a bit of a civil war.
(I guess unless they manage another Butler incident.)

Seems to me the crooked judge has a bit of an issue with the Supreme Court. First, how does he get to recuse himself after allowing the prosecutors to use official acts in their cases when, "On July 1, the U.S. Supreme Court held that presidents (including former presidents) are (a) presumptively immune from criminal prosecution for any official acts taken as president, and (b) absolutely immune if the official acts are core constitutional duties of the chief executive"? The whole thing should be thrown out along with the judge and prosecutors.
Second, they should at least have to retry every case. "The court instructed that this immunity extends not only to charges but to evidence. That means prosecutors are not just barred from alleging official presidential acts as crimes; they are further prohibited from even using such acts as proof offered to establish other crimes."
The article pretty much drops off without any additional information, but, hopefully, the Trump legal team is on it. Our critters are on vacation or campaigning to save their backsides, because, they're certainly not doing anything about anything. Those quiet little church mice.

The thought of the leftists doing this to Trump is so alarming and derranged. I think they are trying to insight a riot accross the Nation so they can point at it and say "See another inserection, Trump and his supporters are out of their minds". The dems/media are sick sick fools and I wouldn't put anything past them.

Dims will tell him not to do that. They know it will help Trump.

Another foreign born Judge going after President Trump over totally false charges and all for the same nefarious reason - to keep him from returning to the White House. I certainly hope on DAY ONE of the new world order that the cellphones and all computers are confiscated by the acting Attorney General and all communications with the Biden White House and DOJ/FBI/CIA are retrieved and catalogued for their criminal trials. The COLLUSION among DEMOCRATS to get Trump now includes attempted ASSASSINATION for the record book. Biden has a complete and total fixation on Donald Trump, and put Hillary in that Deplorables Basket.

At this point, I am prepared for anything. Democrats are in such a state of uncontrollable rage at the thought of loss of power that, I believe, they will do anything. Look what they have done recently. These people are evil and they believe that if they eliminate President Trump by any means that the rest of the country will quietly accept it. I don’t believe they understand the depth of concern that we have for our future. We know our children will live lives nothing like we have ever experienced in our history under democrat power. Americans may not take a stand for political reasons but they will take a stand for the future of their children. We will protect that at all costs. Frankly, I do not know what democrats will do, but the American people will not sit still for the theft of their children’s heritage and future right to live the American dream. Democrats have been ginning up their base and they will set them free to do whatever violence they want if they are defeated because they would rather burn the country down than lose power. You cannot reason with that kind of mindset, all you can do is react. Expect the worst.

Should the judge make this decision, all stars and stripes should be lowered throughout the land, and the red flag with the yellow hammer and sickle should be raised up all flagpoles. Our Constitution means nothing and we are no longer free.

Marchan should be charged in Texas for election interference.
Trump can’t attend a rally because of unlawful conviction?
Sounds like a crime to me.
Two can play.

I think it all comes down to this: “Stormy” signed TWO affidavits saying there was no sex between DJT and her. TWO! How can this case even proceed? Oh, wait, Tish, Braggart and Merchan. Sorry.

For this corrupt tool to throw himself on his sword like this is unbelievable. The payoff would have to be enormous; enough to sacrifice every good thing he has ever earned in life. He will be remembered as a crooked judge forever, and hes willing to do that. Maybe a lifetime pass to Epstein II? A few million in an offshore account?

#11 - Saw your comment, and I agree with you. Memory is kind of foggy, not sure what I read, but for some reason I don't trust him. Not sure whose side he is on. Let's pray it cannot happen.

Marchan must also address evidence that came that involved official acts. There was evidence about Trump's actions while President from Hope HIcks and maybe others. The Supreme Court ruled that evidence of immune acts could not be introduced to prove non-immune charges. This is another avenue for appeal, probably all the way back to the Supreme Court. Whatever the judge rules, Trump will not be going to prison until all appeals are decided.

OK, so we know for sure the Dems will do anything/everything in their considerable power to "get Trump"...legal or not. Ordering him to prison or accusing him of "another insurrection" would just be icing on their collective cake. So, fine. We have identified the problem. But where is our PLAN to stop them?
If civil unrest occurs, what would we do? If the internet went down, how would we reconnect? Maybe some elite Pubbies somewhere have a strategy, but what about the rest of us?
I'm not suggesting we go full-out paranoid but considering what's at stake we shouldn't be marching toward a shaky NOV without some kind of plan in place. Hello???

McCarthy makes a warped analysis, and hasn't much record of being right on anything. A more forthright analysis is that the SC ruling on immunity for official acts by the President has thrown a tornado into the rationale and reasoning of this case, leaving Merchan only with his corruption and vileness to make a ruling he knows will be overturned.

And then watch President Trump win the election. This is one of the major character flaws for the left. Their rage and hatred overrides any shred of critical thinking they might have. It’s a monster that demands to be fed, 24/7/365.

we are outraged but we also know the solution is to be brave like him and win the election, and also we know this is for us, not only him. the strategy is win the election, not get distracted.

If the judge is smart he will sentence Trump to a 'reasonable' duration of imprisonment. Then order enforcement to be suspended until after the election. But common sense and good judgement are the first victims of blind rage.

I don't know if the commenters here realize how serious the situation is if President Trump is put in jail. The Deep State failed to take him out on July 13 but they are by no means done. They are absolutely determined to keep him out of the White House by any means necessary. I'm starting to think they now believe they won't be able to cheat their way through this election so, if he's in jail then he's out of sight. If he's out of sight...well, use your imagination.

Oh. It's the DEMOCRATS releasing the kraken.
I'll believe it when I see it.
I will keep 9/18 in the back of my head, just in case. It's one week after 9/11.
The Democrats will go to any length to win the election. Don't believe it? Why did they get rid of Feeble Joe?
