Role of Judges in Hiding Trump Activities Helped Pave the Way for Eventual Victory

March 20, 2018


New revelations show that Donald Trump's path to the presidency might have been much more difficult - if a panel of judges had acted differently in 2011.

Documents released by a federal appeals court in Manhattan on Friday, March 9, but thus far not reported, demonstrate that a panel of judges in 2011 blocked the release of extremely damaging information about then real estate mogul Donald Trump to the late "Village Voice" reporter Wayne Barrett, who was then working for the "Daily Beast."

Those documents, if they had been released at the time, would have shown that Trump was accepting financing from a company that was headed by a convicted felon.
Doing so knowingly is criminal fraud under federal banking laws.

The felon was Felix Sater, who has in recent months become a constant figure in the media highlight.
However, the real import of Sater, and who knew what about him, was lost for years as a result of that 2011 court decision, and benefited Trump's chances tremendously.
