...So Trump won't get away with it huh?
How many times has he heard that from dumb coppers he couldn't count.
The failed former president may well've thought he'd "get away"
with all his apparent crimes six years ago when he was elected
president (despite losing the poll by 3 million popular votes) but
times have changed, and incriminating evidence and subpoenas
he's now facing have increased dramatically.
The Manhattan district attorney’s office appears to be nearing a
potential indictment of the failed former president, as federal and
state prosecutors bear down on him in a number of inquiries.
After avoiding indictment for years, Trump now appears closer
than ever to facing criminal charges in Manhattan for his role in
a hush money payment of US$130,000 to porn star Stephanie
Clifford.
Michael Cohen, Trump’s "fixer" at the time, made the payment
during the final days of the 2016 presidential campaign, but
later pointed the finger at his boss, saying
it was Trump who
directed him to pay off Clifford, a contention that prosecutors
later corroborated.
The beauty of all this is that Trump no longer has the protection
of presidential privilege, and his former political supporters are
jumping ship while they still can.
Check out his former mega-donor multi-millionaire supporters
that've now deserted him: Ken Griffin, Stephen Schwarzman,
Ken Langone, Nelson Peltz, Miriam Adelson, Robert and
Rebekah Mercer
et al.

Quote:Most Republican-leaning voters would prefer Florida's governor over
Trump as their 2024 presidential nominee, according to a survey.
By a 56%-33% margin, conservative voters picked Governor Ron
DeSantis over the former president. The Suffolk University/USA
Today poll also found Joe Biden had higher approval numbers than Trump.
The poll recorded only a 30% approval rating for Trump, compared
with 46% for Biden.
