The real aggravating thing is that it's been pretty thoroughly proven that in the end, all this was was the classic 'WOMAN WHORE BAD, TRUMP GOOD BOY GOD AT EVERYTHING" meat for the usual slavering numbnuts, and they didn't even have to bother. Trump can just lie and say anything: the sorts he wants to reach to 'do something' will believe it. He could spin it like that Simpsons joke about Homer's 'excellent memory' and they'd accept it without a second thought no matter what counter evidence there was.

These people don't have to try any more. Just make poo poo up. They'll get the same result from the sorts they've mentally enslaved to addictive fear and hate.

Donald "Emoluments Clause violator" Trump had Trump Org monies illegally allocated to pay off someone to not say a thing, while President in the Oval Office.

I think that might be worth something in a trial down the road maybe.

Word. I have always maintained that what a woman wears does not invite a man to sexually assault her; she may be dressing a certain way to attract a guy (or not! It could be to impress her friends, or just because she feels good about it), but she has standards and it’s ultimately her choice. And if a woman is in sex work, it doesn’t mean she has no standards in her personal life. The whole argument is gross as hell.

Also, count me in among the kazil saluters. You are an American hero.

Ah, I get it now.

She's there to be an "expert witness" on Fox because she's a judge, so now Fox has their credentials to tear the case apart regardless of the actual outcome in their weird littler echo chamber hate bubble to their base

She was a county head prosecutor too but went on the grift circuit after she lost to Andrew Cuomo in a race for NY AG.

I had to quit reading the transcripts of the defense's questioning because it was so many repeated attempts to shame her and attack her character for daring to have sex. But only her. Not the man. They're so sleazy and disgusting.

Yeah, I grew up in Westchester County and my brother was keeping me updated on her political career and then she was on Fox polluting the air with her stench.

I just looked this up, she was a County Court judge in Westchester County, New York. County Courts can hear civil cases with amounts involved up to $25,000.00. Its pretty much the lowest level judge you can be.

It ends with the defense trying to just say they never had sex and that Stormy is a porn writer and director and has been making up things like this for most of her career. Just completely pointless stuff for the trial; it's about the use of funds to have someone not talk in order to influence the election, the sex stuff that the prosecution brought up was either meant to piss off Trump into doing something dumb or explaining why Trump would have a motive to try and keep what happened quiet.

It's her marketing gimmick. Judge as a title covers a very large swath of professions some with a lot of prestige and some with little. The general public doesn't know that and just assumes that she had a prestigious position.

Now let me tell you about Dr. Phil and how he has a doctoral degree in clinical psychology (a phd) and is not a medical doctor at all.

More outside the Trump courtroom lols:

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/09/trump-media-investor-convicted-of-insider-trading-ahead-of-merger.html



quote:

A federal jury in New York on Thursday convicted an investor of insider trading in the stock of a shell company ahead of its announcement in October 2021 that it would merge with Trump Media
.

The investor, Bruce Garelick, had been on the board of directors of the publicly traded company, Digital World Acquisition Corp., at the time it was negotiating plans to merge with then-privately heldTrump Media, the owner of the Truth Social app.

Trump Media’s majority shareholder is former President Donald Trump, who was not accused of any wrongdoing in the case against Garelick in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. But Garelick’s trial, which began on April 30, took place just blocks away from where Trump is on trial in Manhattan Supreme Court on criminal charges related to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.

I read an article from Business Insider where they asked a parasite expert about RFKJr's story and they basically said it was not possible. I'm guessing he either has a quack doctor or he's totally fabricating the entire story.
