    Guilty verdict or not, we, as American citizens, need to do our part and keep Donald Trump away from the white house.
  • @jimalford6359
    If Donald Trump goes to prison it would be the best thing to happen to the United States in the last 10 years!
  • @frankstonrat
    "Your honor, we find the defendant INCREDIBLY guilty...."
  • @muddgrub4402
    If Trump thinks that Judge Merchan is disqualified because he was born in Colombia, what does he have to say about Judge Cannon's birthplace? Not surprisingly, the answer is "nothing".

    Republicans don't care about right or wrong, legal or illegal, its about winning at all cost. the sooner we all understand that the better.
  • @sherri.
    He needs to be held accountable at least once in his life. Hope the jury doesn’t let this opportunity slide. 🙏🏼

    You can't put your steak on the floor and then blame the dog for eating it. If we remove the incentives for politicians to enrich themselves fully within the rules and the law, then we could get people whose motivation was serving the interests of society instead of themselves. Imagine that.
  • @LostandFoundTravel
    In a couple of days Trump will claim he "gave perfect testimony" so great the crying judge said "Sir. Thank you sir, I've never had a question answered so perfectly sir."

    Thank you team blue for defending women's rights and reigniting the me too movement. Believe all Women is more important than ever and we stand with Stormy. 💙💙
  • @Oliviux78
    Dear God. For the sake of us all. Please find him GUILTY!!!
  • @Mitsoxfan
    It will either be guilty or a hung jury If there's a verdict before Friday, it's a guilty charge. There's no way there's a unanimous acquittal.
  • @Mike500912
    If trump doesn't get prison time, then your US justice system is crap.
  • @Dblbogey22
    “Prison time…or skate” ? An absolutely brilliant deduction.
  • @judytalk128
    He deserves going to prison for his crimes and to save our great country!!!
  • @pockets2100
    Make america great again. GUILTY as charged!!!
