And a few other cases were dropped or postponed just because he won the election, so running for president actually helped him in those cases.
Got a tip for us?

Lol what does that have to do with anything? The charges were levied against him strictly to try and smear his campaign. He can’t help it that he won the election.
Lol riiiiight. They just happened to decide to try and prosecute him in an election year. Totally conspiracy for sure. 🙄
Why weren’t they levied against him for breaking the law?
Interesting … you seem to imply that Trump has that power? Really? To run one of the most prosperous companies in the world into the ground? If so, wow!! I’d say Tim Cook is not anything like a poor immigrant who could be disposed of easily by the orange man and his ICE breakers. TC would have the power to stand up!
Maybe prosecute him after he left office in 2020. But you're right, it was just a cooincidence that they happened to wait until right before the election to take him to trial. Total coincidence.
1. Right, a likely all democrat jury found him guilty, total shocker.
2. Yeah, again no shock.
3. Yeah just like Hunter Biden's laptop and Joe Biden's mental decline was a conspiracy theory.
4. Furthermore of what crime? That's the whole point. No other crime was claimed but they moved it to a felony because they said he committed a federal crime, which was not named, and which he was never charged federally for because it didn't exist.
Oh my god, talk about conspiracy thoeries. If any of what you said was true, why were none of these charges brought against Trump the last four years when Biden was in office? They did everything humanly possible they could do to try and keep him from running again and you don't think they would have released that information? Can't wait to hear the mental gymnastics you sling for this answer.
There is literally no point in continuing the discussion, there is constant deflection and whataboutism, and the goalposts continue to shift but even if they ended up against the bleacher walls, there'd just be unlimited contorting around the goalpost itself to avoid actually having an honest conversation.
It's bad faith and immature discussion at its finest.
Riiiiight. I've not moved the goal post one time but sure, time to move on Lol.
If your assumption is that Democrats will find him guilty no matter the evidence, is it also your assumption that Republicans will always find him innocent? How can any trial against Trump be fair? I realize that not everybody is a Republican or Democrat, but there aren't many people in the US that don't have an opinion about Trump.
If you think it's unfair, then tell us how it could be fair (without bringing up other presidents).
It likely couldn't be. But I don't think its a stretch to say that a democratic jury was going to find him guilty no matter what. The entire point for me is that yes he was found guilty, but what he was found guilty of was a misdemeanor that was brought up to a felony that made absolutely zero sense.
In the end it ended up benefitting Trump. There were independents who saw what the Democratic party was doing and it brought him in votes that he probably wouldn't have gotten otherwise.
He could refuse. He could resign and make a moral and ethical stance against the regime.
At 64 years old he could live out the remainder of his life in peace and privacy with his billions in the bank and relatively little blood and dirt to his legacy.
Lol surely you don't believe that. I mean if you want to ignore the sweatshops that build iPhones and abhorrent working conditions that the people deal with then sure, his hands are clean.
This is wonderful. I love reading all the people’s comments that hate America. Buckle up buttercups because the movie is starting to get good.
I can’t wait until barry gets perp walked 🤭

How much of the problem is Tim and how much of it is the guy with the small penis who expects people to come kiss the ring to get favors or he'll go after their company / organization / school?
Well, I did say relatively. For example Cook's hands would be relatively clean compared to the orange billionaire conman you've been defending.
"Yes" is my answer there.
There are ways to navigate this that don't involve giving a public hummer with a gold and glass trophy gift as the frosting.
Nauseatingly over the top acquiescence in my opinion.
The prosecutors were elected on the basis of “get Trump” and spent years looking for technicalities in the law to “get him” bolstered by a corrupt DOJ. The activities were so blatant that anyone with half a brain could see it.
The only thing left is to figure out who the ringleader was. It’s either Hillary or Obama or both.
Bragg was elected in November 2021. And brought the case to a grand jury in January 2023.

The events at the center of former President Donald Trump’s hush money case date back almost two decades, with new dates coming to light as the trial plays out in a Manhattan courtroom.

So not "right before the election".
EDIT: Sorry. I originally posted the timeline for the civil fraud case instead of this one.
