    It's a relief to see Trump finally facing a criminal trial.
  • This is looking good a speedy trial in our for a law and order country 😊

    The brown nosing, kowtowing and ring kissing going on in the Republican Party these days is disgusting. And anti American. Voting Democrat until I see grownups with spines running for The G.O.P. again.

    They have to have their sense of smell impaired to not be biased against Trump.😂

    Given the political Democrat bias in NYC, (including the prosecutor and the Judge himself), I would say that TRUMP would be selecting jurors very carefully. If he can find one or two jurors that have followed the facts, and not the liberal culture in the City, I would say he has not guilty verdict. After all, the trial is but a sham based on election interference.

    The Former President is an embarrassment. He continually talks about the judge, the prosecutor, and the jury on occasion. He calls everyone a" Trump hating " this or that. Honestly, I don't think that I know anyone who still likes this mango Mussolini. There are many Former Trump supporters who don't like him anymore either simply because of his own damned behavior. 🤷‍♀️ Former President Trump is his own worst enemy. 🇺🇸

    CBS reminds me of the Cubans in Florida attacking Castro?
