A bit of a tangent, but reading the Wikipedia article for Perry Mason moment has me a little excited for the televised Georgia trial.

If the party doesn’t put forth a ticket the state allows, Colorado just won’t have a republican presidential choice on the ballot. They’ll still have a dozen other cranks like usual, Colorado is one of those states that makes it easy to run for pres. It’d slaughter GOP downballot races in the state I’d think

It’s heartwarming to see a lifetime bullshit artist pitted against a system that’s been honed for two-plus centuries against bullshit.

haveblue posted:Yes, and it was very short and boring (scroll up) The bits that made it to the jury were pretty boring but there was plenty of drama behind it, unless the below is all fabricated. Screenshots all thanks to kazil in the GBS thread: (n.b. Roberta Kaplan is the prosecution)

mdemone posted:Which means the jury got to hear him deny it after all, nice job everyone Immediately after being coached by the judge that Trump is not allowed to deny the previous finding, the jury gets to hear a brief sample of Trump denying the previous finding. During a defamation hearing in which Trump’s character is an underlying issue. Probably not a bad outcome for the prosecution. And I think the key was it was kept as brief as possible

We can't just tears a holes in the wall Should I be reading this in a Metalocalypse voice, if not why not? selec posted:There’s this thing called the Epstein Ward, a magical symbol you can etch upon any door or container that makes feds unable to search it. Trump has access to these dark secrets. You're not supposed to just give legal advice like this to non-clients, I'm telling the bar. This doesn't work anyway, you're supposed to write "Elbereth" on a piece of paper and stand on it until the feds leave.

Cantide posted:European asking: Are the stars in this layout intentionally invoking the Confederate flag? No, it’s from zooming on the current US flag with its alternating 6/5 rows of stars. If you’d make the sneakers during the 48-star period from 1912-1957 for example you’d have a square pattern I bet. Sorry for the boring answer.

Gucci Loafers posted:Would it remain open while it is seized? If it closes, they'd lose a ton of business and loyal customers. It’s a combination condo and hotel, I’m not sure if the hotel would close but I don’t think they’d evict the condo owners or stop accepting rent. If you’re under the impression that it has a casino, it does not. The gaming board won’t license Trump to run a casino in Vegas.

Cimber posted:I think we all should be prepared for tomorrow to be anti climatic. The most that I’m looking for tomorrow is some official statement from NY confirming that the deadline has passed, confirming whether the bond was or was not posted, and maybe even confirming whether NY is moving forward on whatever plan they have. Speculation from this thread is good and all but I’m looking forward to anchoring my reality with some primary sources. Especially given some mutually contradictory claims that have come out from Trump and his legal team on the past week.

Madkal posted:I want a cool bible that replaces the word "knew" with "gently caress". That would be a cool bible. Get one of these: > The Wicked Bible, sometimes called the Adulterous Bible or the Sinners' Bible, is an edition of the Bible published in 1631 by Robert Barker and Martin Lucas, the royal printers in London, meant to be a reprint of the King James Bible. The name is derived from a mistake made by the compositors: in the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20:14, the word "not" was omitted from the sentence, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," causing the verse to instead read, "Thou shalt commit adultery."

DarkHorse posted:What about posting the bond for him and just... not collecting from him when the appeal fails? Gyrotica posted:Also gives Trump a break - that's 175 million less he has to pay as the penalty if the appeal fails. Even if Knight writes off the loss, New York gets some damages paid and another $175M that surely would have found its way to Trump’s campaign gets diverted to his legal problems. I’m having trouble getting worked up about the injustice of this one.

Dirk the Average posted:And while not reality, this is a sound strategy in many games - money earned early on in the game is often more valuable than the same money later on in the game once resources become more available. Being able to get a massive leg up initially can be huge. This is called time value of money and is true in pretty much any case, not just in gaming!

Caros posted:He's almost certainly going to get fines this time but I'm actually curious what happens if/when he plays chicken. The judge can't ramp the fees, so the only meaningful punishment that can be imposed if he just decides to keep doing it is jail time. This isn’t about the size of the fines or the length of jail time. The stakes of this case are every political commentator in the world being able to use the phrase “convicted felon” before Trump’s name. And acting out before a jury just makes conviction more likely. The judge can respond to Trump by giving the jury instructions about how to contextualize Trump’s actions.
