If it is legally absurd, why is everyone just standing around watching it happen? NO ONE is stepping up to say it is absurd. Where are the NY lawyers, where are the NY judges?

[johnnoone]

Disbar Alvin Bragg and remove the Judge from the bench and disbar him too.

The people have nothing but contempt for this Stalin show trial.

President Trump we know how ridiculous it is it's been happening to the American people too

[thomasmanning]

Millions of Americans are very very angry about this persecution of Trump.

If the judge wanted to follow the law he would have thrown the case out on day one.

[johnnyamerica]

Yet the president’s son can refuse to show up to House hearings etc. Blatant two tiers of justice!!

[sergiozammel]

Scagg should be charged with mis appropriation of US citizen's tax money.

[marcosromero]

This sounds like judicial malpractice. Talk about prejudice! Talk about the tainted jury pool!

Absolutely disgusting abuse of the legal system.

[cathybostwick]

why doesn't the Supreme Court put a stop to this bs

[judimckinney]

Now I'm hearing the President can't go to his son's high school graduation. This in itself is a good reason for every mother in America not to vote for biden.

[annabarone]

That's b s if the judge wanted to follow the law he wouldn't bring this case forward

[ginoperretta]

the only way this whole mess can get fixed is if the democrat party is voted out of business this november. they truly deserve it

[angieketcher]

Why is this still going on when it has been said by Federal court there's no crime? Please tell me!!!!

[mikehigh]

I guess this judge is willing to throw away his career and the oath he took😡😡😡😡

[garymitchell]

Where are the common sense judges to step in to dismiss this case

[davidmichaels]

Are they charging him with eating a ham sandwich the wrong way now

[josephtalmadge]

What a slap in the face to the victims of NYC that suffered real violence and no consequences under Bragg
