Not that I really care that Hinderaker doesn’t read very well, but in New York, theft of honest services is a crime.
And the “catch and kill” routine (through fixer Cohen), in addition to being a federal campaign law violation, is thus a “corruption” felony under NY state law — compounded by Trump’s intentional lies about the nature of the payments made.
So Hinderaker’s framing of the charges… is misleading to the point of falsity.
And yet, as John acknowledges, Alvin Bragg will get a conviction — that much is certain.
So — Hinderaker’s GOP candidate will be a convicted felon as he heads out of the Milwaukee convention, as the candidate for 2024.
Charming John. There was a time when… well… never mind.
You’ve become all the things you’d long said you’d despised about your pop’s generation.
Hilarious.
