The former president’s criminal hush-money in New York trial will begin on April 15, Judge Juan Merchan ruled on Monday

Donald Trump‘s first criminal trial will begin on April 15.

Judge Juan Merchan ruled on Monday that the former president’s criminal hush-money trial will kick off next month. The ruling comes after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg agreed to delay the initial start date of March 25 so that his office could review new records from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Merchan rejected Trump’s latest push to delay the trial even further, while excoriating his team for making bogus allegations of misconduct against Bragg. “You are literally accusing the Manhattan DA’s office and the people assigned to this case of prosecutorial misconduct and trying to make me complicit in it,” the judge said.

      So crime shouldn’t be acted upon because someone else did it as well? That’s your argument? I’m guessing you’re joking?

      Yeah. Let those of us who have not created fraudulent business documents to cover up payments to our porn star mistress in violation of campaign finance laws cast the first stone.

      He’s hated by every single American patriot. We the majority absolutely hate fascist traitors who tried to overthrow our constitution.

      If you support trump, you aren’t american any longer. You’re the enemies of the United States.

          You’re obviously very smart and have achieved a high level of education.

          Your grandfather would hate fascists like trump. At least he would see the OBVIOUS parallels in the Hitler speeches that your orange makeup wearing rapist fuhrer likes to spout.

                  Oh I agree with you!

                  Traitor trump has done more to destroy our economy, more sedition and treason than any other president, more debt added to the total than other other president in history, more pussy grabbing than any other president, more child rapist close friends than any other president, most dysfunctional state dept than any other president, and more lies than any other president in history.

                  You are an absolute joke with name dropping a god out of one one side of your mouth whilst simultaneously (and in complete ignorance of reality) professing your complete fealty to a fascist piece of excrement.

                  Good job magat, you’ve disgraced god and your entire lineage.

              Holy cow you’re just plain unintelligent. No wonder you can’t see reality.

              Just curious, what does your god say about adultery? How about a pig who goes out and pays for sex while his wife is at home with their newborn?

              You’re joking yourself severely if you believe any deity wouldn’t smite donald trump on sight for his extreme and continued transgressions against humanity.
