Commentary for a Sunday: Trump Protesters Stay Home—This is a Trap

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg may very well be planning to indict President Trump on a charge that he must know won’t stick.

He dropped this nonstarter of a case a few months ago and is only reviving it because of political pressure.

This from thelibertyloft.com.

Andrew McCarthy, former assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, writing in National Review, explained why Bragg cannot possibly win this case.

It is based on a payment of hush money to Stormy Daniels and a non-disclosure agreement to prevent her from speaking in public.

But McCarthy pointed out:

While the tryst and the non-disclosure agreement (NDA) constitute the interesting action in this saga, they do not constitute the crime. Marital infidelity is a moral wrong but not a criminal one. And while hush-money is a pejorative term, and the details of this one are sleazy, NDAs per se are perfectly legal and common in civil-law settlements of claims.

Were Trump to be indicted, it would be for the lackluster crime of falsifying business records.

But for that to be criminal, prosecutors would have to prove something that is obviously not true—that the records were falsified in order to conceal another crime.

Obviously, any falsification was motivated by a desire to avoid political embarrassment and publicity. It is absurd to claim that there was another crime lurking in the shadows.

 

So why is Bragg pursuing this case? Let’s speculate on his real motivation.

 

Odds are, Bragg has been instructed to do so. No offense intended, but I’ve read that Bragg is not smart enough to fabricate such a decisive move on his own.

The communists/globalists are becoming dangerously desperate. They still have some fight left in them, but like cornered wild animals their cognitions are scattered and their alternatives are diminishing.

This is their attempt to set a trap for Trump, hoping to so push his buttons and so anger his supporters that they create a Jan. 6-like situation from which he can be accused of fomenting a riot.

NOTE: The House committees are closing in on the Bidens—Joe-Joe, Hunter, and the entire filthy treasonous family. The Regime needs to change the subject, to drive the China payoff scandal off the front page. So, Bragg has been instructed to indict Trump.

 

Only a desperate throw of the dice can save the

Biden crime family— and this indictment is it.

 

America will see that any case based on Stormy Daniels is just a political ploy to try to stop Trump. But everyone knows he won’t be stopped. So, Bragg’s directors figure that the next best thing would be to provoke a riot.

But this, again, is foolish thinking because Trump and his supporters won’t bite. President Trump did not intend for We the People to riot when he exclaimed: “PROTEST.” Infact, President Trump will go out of his way to call for peaceful protests and prayers for our democracy.

Which brings us to the statute of limitations. McCarthy explains that the statute for a felony crime of falsification is five years, while a misdemeanor expires after only two.

To avoid the two-year statute, which has clearly lapsed, prosecutors face the same stumbling block: proving that the falsification was motivated by a desire to cover up another crime. To avoid the five-year statute, prosecutors would have to prove that it did. Otherwise, their prosecution is barred by the statute of limitations.

McCarthy concludes:

This is a really dumb case and Bragg, who has already dropped it once only to be mau-maued into resuscitating it, has not crossed the Rubicon yet.

And he might drown if he tries.

Meanwhile, please stay off the streets. Stay home and safeguard your families, your property, and your neighborhoods.

Leave the public protesting to the Conservatives of the GOP and the few RINOs who have already begun to speak out.

God speed to Conservatism and God speed to the Take Back of our Constitutional Republic.

 

LONG LIVE PRESIDENT TRUMP!
