    That's exactly why she isn't. She's just delaying it till after the election to pay him back the favor for appointing her.

    What I find frustrating is how if Biden wins, the D's are so spineless, nothing will happen to these clowns.

    Especially since the GOP does exactly what they accuse the D's of doing, and would do so without even flinching or thinking twice about doing it.

    I'm pretty sure Trump not being allowed to have a gun immediately makes him a democrat in Texas.

    Trump again tried to explain his cowardly refusal to testify by claiming his two witnesses were "literally" crucified by Judge Marchan. No one noticed any crucifixion and the witnesses are very much alive. Either:
    Trump is lying
    Trump is too stupid to know what literally means
    Both.

    Trump hush money trial judge Juan Merchan warns parties of incriminating Facebook comment the day before the verdict
    • Facebook post claims to know Trump would be found guilty before verdict

    Trump's hush money conviction could be in doubt after a Facebook post claimed jurors were discussing plans to find the ex-president guilty before delivering their verdict.

    Judge Juan Merchan sparked speculation of potential mistrial when he sent a letter to the prosecution and defense attorneys about the message that read: 'My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted [heart emoji] Thank you folks for all your had work!!!!'

    The user, named Michael Anderson, wrote the post that sparked confusion on a New York Unified Court System's Facebook page.

    It raises questions about whether one of the jurors did in fact discuss the case with others when they were not allowed to.

    If that were the case, it could be grounds for a mistrial.

    It is not clear that the Facebook user who posted was related to any juror or had any prior knowledge of the verdict. It could also have been a random Facebook user looking to stir controversy or confusion.

    The profile for Anderson claims to be a 'professional s**t poster' - another name for an internet troll.

    Anderson's Facebook profile has since been deleted and DailyMail.com was unable to contact him before it was taken down.

    A photo of a cross-dressing, cigarette-smoking man grabbed from the profile before it was deleted was being touted as Anderson - but the man in the image is actually late punk rocker GG Allin, who died in 1993 aged 36.

    The jury of seven men and five women at Manhattan Criminal Court deliberated for nearly 10 hours before convicting the former President of 34 charges of falsifying business records.

    Trump was found guilty of falsifying business records to cover up the payment to porn star Stormy Daniels so she would stay quiet about a previous sexual encounter before the 2016 election.

    It was the first time a former U.S. President has faced a criminal trial and came as Trump is running for a second term as president.

    Trump defense attorney/trial judge Aileen Cannon continues to hold hearing after hearing on issues already adjudicated in other courts so that a trial he can't win can be postponed forever.

    Cannon will probably disallow them from being used at trial.
