A judge might rule that Trump's own lawyer will have to testify against him in the stolen documents
case which tells me that Jack Smith might be going for an obstruction of justice charge against Trump.

And it looks likely that he is gonna be indicted, arrested, appear in court or @ the D.A.'s office after
which he will have mug shots taken, be fingerprinted, and most likely have to have his mouth swabbed
for his DNA. And the Stormy Daniels case for which he has to appear in court for is all put a slam dunk
... they have the check with which he paid her with his signature on it.

And E. Jean Carroll's attorneys will very likely try to get those DNA results for her case against against Donny
in which she is gonna sue him for millions.

(93,873 posts)No, the charge is that MICHAEL COHEN paid Stormy Daniels, and Trump repaid Cohen but put it in the bookkeeping as an attorney retainer fee. There is no check to Daniels with Trump's signature. And if there was it would actually have been perfectly legal.

(18,745 posts)Trump writing the check to Stormy still would have been a crime if not reported correctly. It's a campaign contribution that has to be reported as such.

(139 posts)....the campaign cut the check. They didn't, it came from an outside source, Cohen. Which was of value to the campaign, it was done to buy her silence and that makes it a "contribution in kind", thus required to report on the campaign financial statements. TFG will argue that it was to protect his family from being embarrassed by that info being made public. That's bullshit, the affair happened in 2006, the payment happened in 2016. He didn't give a rat's ass about his family finding out for a decade, but 2 weeks before the election, when it could affect the outcome, he paid up.

(18,745 posts)Indictment today. But I hope the indictment gets released today because what's in it will be devastating and will be what people are talking about.

(42,383 posts)She has no right to obtain the results of his swab and the judge in her case already has ruled against the discovery of DNA evidence.
Also, the indictment may well be kept under seal and Trump won't be arraigned today in any event.
However, the ruling on Corcoran's testimony could come today given the expedited briefing ordered by the court.

(43,982 posts)Agreed, sounds like the Corcoran ruling will come today.

(2,694 posts)Judge ruled T took too long and now Carroll's attorneys can make the case that is a default admission of he claim being true.

(1,939 posts)then trump sent his post out and I though wow, maybe this will happen. But, now here it is days later and I'm again starting to wonder if this will happen. if it doesn't happen by Friday then I think I'm back to the "never gonna happen" mode again.
