@ CTLAWYER,
To be completely transparent I agree that Trump is guilty. But I don’t get your title labelled “34 counts”. Morally this concept that from one minor sin a person can violate so many crimes just because you found some written law, is just absurd. I get that without each law what’s the sin. But the fact that you can twist 34 laws into one little crime is just a perversion of justice. At the end of the day it’s one count. Did he sin or not? And especially to punish him for each count? It seems so banana republic like.it’s one masa averio.
I’ll also throw in another mockery of our wonderful justice system. We love to tout that hey he was convicted by a jury of his peers who were selected by both sides. But here is the thing, the judge still has all the leeway as to what the jury is allowed to listen to and what they must disregard. The judge can narrow it down so thin that the jury basically most convict because they just discard everything the defence said. (I am exaggerating but bringing out a point) If the judge is bias your case os doomed. A judge can indeed decide your fate. Our system isn’t moral and isn’t decided by a jury.
