    When you use campaign contributions to pay that someone because your phony financial empire is actually borderline bankrupt, then yes, yes it is illegal.

    Given that DeSantis has his mind made up on at least one case, has he been asked whether, if elected President, he would pardon Trump in connection with any federal charges brought during the Biden administration? Is he pledging he won’t cooperate with any extradition or just for this case?

    That is your judgment. We'll find out on the day of judgment whether the scales you used to come to that conclusion are true and right or if they are corrupt. One thing is for certain, though, and that is "dishonest scales are an abomination to the Lord" (Proverbs 11:1). Let God divide between you and I on the day of judgment, and we'll see whose scales are an abomination and whose scales are of the Lord.

    probably not, but it is illegal, as I understand it, to pay it and run it as a business expense. I think that is a misdemeanor with only two year statute of limitations. But paying it as a campaign expense is a felony federal expense with longer statute of limitations. What is a bit unusual is the nyc prosecutor charging the felony federal offense, when the feds apparently did not choose to press charges.

    Too Hot is a vapor. It will pass. All of us will be judged, and God will decide our eternity. I'm not concerned about this "Too Hot eternity."

    Go read the Jeffersonian Bible, ignore all the other stuff, then come back and suggest to me you follow the teachings of Christ rather than an earthly ideology. "By their deeds [and words] shall you know them."

    There is no god. We die, we turn to ashes. Leave out the Bible and prove otherwise.

    Under the Extradition Clause of the Constitution his cooperation isn’t discretionary. His statement was pure performative political theater so he can blame lawyers later.

    only if they claim the expense as legal fees related to their campaign. if he would have just reached into his own pocket to pay for his bad habits he wouldn't have had a problem but he believes the law don't apply to him

    Cheating has always been a way of life. He learned it from his dysfunctional family, especially his father.

    No, you have not read the charges. That is an intentional falsehood.
    You are very mistaken about Edwards.

    He signed some checks and, more importantly, the returns.

    The DA is NOT charging a federal crime, he can't. Assuming the reporting is correct, Trump was indicted on violation of this NY law:

    "
    Article 175 - Offenses Involving False Written Statements
    175.10 - Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree.

    Universal Citation: NY Penal L § 175.10 (2019)
    § 175.10 Falsifying business records in the first degree.


    A person is guilty of falsifying business records in the first degree
    when he commits the crime of falsifying business records in the second
    degree, and when his intent to defraud includes an intent to commit
    another crime or to aid or conceal the commission thereof.


    Falsifying business records in the first degree is a class E felony.

    This is the misdemeanor:


    Article 175 - Offenses Involving False Written Statements
    175.05 - Falsifying Business Records in the Second Degree.

    Universal Citation: NY Penal L § 175.05 (2018)
    § 175.05 Falsifying business records in the second degree.


    A person is guilty of falsifying business records in the second degree
    when, with intent to defraud, he:


    1. Makes or causes a false entry in the business records of an
    enterprise; or


    2. Alters, erases, obliterates, deletes, removes or destroys a true
    entry in the business records of an enterprise; or


    3. Omits to make a true entry in the business records of an enterprise
    in violation of a duty to do so which he knows to be imposed upon him by
    law or by the nature of his position; or


    4. Prevents the making of a true entry or causes the omission thereof
    in the business records of an enterprise.


    Falsifying business records in the second degree is a class A
    misdemeanor.
