Donald Trump’s Hush Money Circus Ends in Final Disgrace
Judge Juan Merchan walks loudly and carries a puny stick
On January 3, New York Judge Juan Merchan rejected President-Elect Donald
Trump’s request that his “hush money” convictions be vacated based on the US
Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision in Trump v. United States. Merchan
has scheduled a “sentencing” of Donald Trump for January 10, in which no
incarceration will be imposed. What’s the point?
Sensationalist histrionics that Donald Trump is “a convicted felon” arise solely from
the supposed 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to influence the 2016
Presidential election concocted by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Stitched
tenuously together to avoid statutes of limitation, amplify the charges against
Trump to felonies, and intrude into federal election jurisdiction, these 34 heinous
counts (arising from a single $130,000 payment!) will now be disposed of via an
“unconditional discharge.”
New York City subways resemble barbaric scenes from Mad Max, yet Brave Alvin
Bragg has waged a perverse political crusade against candidate Donald Trump,
enabled by Merchan’s mockery of judicial ethics and disregard for constitutional
precepts. The convoluted criminal counts against Donald Trump should never have
been allowed to proceed; evidence concerning official acts of the President was
improperly admitted by Merchan at trial despite strenuous objections of counsel;
the US Supreme Court ruled US Presidents are immune from prosecution for official
acts, confirming Donald Trump’s trial was irredeemably tainted; Donald Trump
resoundingly won the 2024 presidential election. Still, Merchan marches along in his
one-man witch hunt. January 10 will likely be his last sterile limp in the MSM
limelight.
Trump spokesman and incoming White House Communications Director Steven
Cheung called Merchan’s ruling “a direct violation of the Supreme Court’s Immunity
decision and other longstanding jurisprudence.” Re-elected House Speaker Mike
Johnson has previously condemned Merchan’s Kafkian hush money cases against
Trump, stating, “This was a purely political exercise, not a legal one. ....The
weaponization of our justice system has been a hallmark of the Biden
Administration....”
As if determined to leave the stench of corrupt Banana Republic lawfare by
unhinged Democrats hanging in the Inauguration Day air, Merchan has refused to
relent in his increasingly ludicrous hijinks. The infamous hush money trial was a Jerry Springer clown show competing with the similarly shameless escapades of Fani
Willis, both obvious partisan prosecutorial fictions Alinsky-crafted to tarnish Donald
Trump’s reputation on election eve.
Such audacious corruption likely helped Donald Trump win the election, assisted by
the venomous legal and character attacks against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Americans
have watched in growing disgust as Merchan, Bragg, Willis, and other public officials
have jettisoned any notion of ethical appearances in their blind pursuit to derail the
American political and legal systems in order to undermine the Orange Donald Man.
The scheduling of Donald Trump’s sentencing is a reflection of the Merchan-Go-
Round carnival ride: Merchan originally scheduled the former President’s sentencing
hearing for July 11, then September 18, then November 26, and now January 10.
Such a laggard protocol, following such a speedy political witch trial.
Merchan’s pathetic partisan pistol has shrunk in caliber at every legal step, whittling
down his lawfare arsenal from an intimidating laundry list of felonies, to tainted
convictions based on improper evidence, to utter judicial impotence post-election.
Merchan resembles Tolkien’s Saruman in the hollowed-out judicial wreckage of his
Ent-flooded court, his perfidy to the Rule of Law exposed while he kicks his
obsequious sidekick Alvin Wormtongue down the spiral courthouse steps.
Juan Merchan has no power over Donald Trump and seeks to preen his feathers as
Trump’s faux foe one last time, the naked Emperor launching one last visit to the
nude beach before winter falls. Considering the vital work before him staunching
the flow of illegals into the nation, bolstering a wobbly economy, and preventing
escalating wars abroad, it is hard to imagine why America’s incoming 47th President
Trump would even bother to appear in the Monty Python skit that New York Judge
Juan Merchand’s courtroom has devolved into – in person or virtually, Merchan’s
New York venue is no longer worthy of any imprimatur of legitimacy.
Whether you like Donald Trump or not, these guys, Bragg, Merchan and Engoron seems to be just minions for an agenda. They all seemed to bend (and I use that term loosely) the law to suit their end game. It was blatant, outright fanaticism to get him at all costs. In my opinion, people like these, who are in high positions and supposedly administering justice, should at the same time, if found guilty, be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Of course I do realize that there are so many people who back these minions that prosecution seem to be be a remote possibility. Time will tell on this one...............
Well love when they appeal this unjust conviction and it’s overwhelming rejected at some higher level. Only wish someone could sue Bragg for such blatant criminal behavior.
