I'm honestly surprised. I figured he'd be convicted on around 75% of the counts so they could at least put on a pretense of it not being a kangaroo court.

The case was widely regarded as the least consequential of the four criminal prosecutions Trump faces. Jurors heard testimony of sex and lies that have been public since 2018, although the charges themselves rested on ledger accounts and other records of Cohen's reimbursement.
It was known as the "zombie case" because Bragg brought it back to life after his predecessor opted not to bring charges.

I pity the fools that are enjoying this witch-hunt.
I guess they don't realize that once shyt like this gains precedence... it could happen to them as well. ^^

I guess Bragg's predecessor, couldn't be bought.

Democracy IS being damaged... and we're seeing it happen, with crap like this. ^^

You too could be prosecuted if you break the law!

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche asked Merchan to throw out the guilty verdict, arguing that it was based on the unreliable testimony of Cohen. Merchan denied his request.

Trump's near-certain appeal of his historic conviction on criminal charges in New York is likely to focus on porn star Daniels' salacious testimony about their alleged sexual encounter as well as the novel legal theory prosecutors used in the case, but he faces long odds, legal experts said.
Falsifying business documents is normally a misdemeanor in New York, but prosecutors in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office elevated it to a felony on grounds that Trump was concealing an illegal campaign contribution.
