'Hush Money' Criminal Case against Trump Is 'Bogus.' Legal Expert Explains Why

Virginia Allen : Apr 15, 2024  The Daily Signal

"This case is just bogus from start to finish. It's in Manhattan. It's a Manhattan jury, and I'll tell you, quite frankly, I think if the DA charged Donald Trump with eating a ham sandwich, the jury would find him guilty." -legal expert Hans von Spakovsky

[DailySignal.com] Among all the legal charges facing former President Donald Trump, the criminal case out of New York City that begins Monday "is the most bogus," according to legal expert Hans von Spakovsky. (Screengrab image)

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Trump in 2023 with 34 counts of falsifying business records supposedly to cover up "hush money" payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.

"This case is just bogus from start to finish," Von Spakovsky says, adding, "It's in Manhattan. It's a Manhattan jury, and I'll tell you, quite frankly, I think if the DA charged Donald Trump with eating a ham sandwich, the jury would find him guilty."

Jury selection in the case begins on Monday, but concerns have been raised as to whether it's even possible to find an unbiased jury in Manhattan. Von Spakovsky, senior legal fellow and manager of the Election Law Reform Initiative at The Heritage Foundation, says he thinks the jury is "going to find him guilty, regardless of the facts and regardless of the law."

If Trump is found guilty, and even if he faces time in prison, that will not legally impede the former president from continuing to run for reelection, or even serving as president, given that the Constitution does not address that, the legal expert explains.

Von Spakovsky joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to explain what he expects to see during the case, and what will happen next if the jury does find Trump guilty. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
