Two of Donald Trump’s defense attorneys told NBC News that the former president was told that he could appear before a Manhattan grand jury investigating hush money allegedly paid to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign.

#NBCNews #Trump #HushMoney
The con man is only going to plea the 5th! Or just lie. That seems to be his trade mark.
if the case was strong enough that somebody else went to prison why isnt it strong enough to convict trump…? why is he above the law?
There’s that word again Trump ( IMMINENT SCARY 😨 😳 😬 isn’t it citizen Trump 🙄 🤔 🤐🥶
Good
I hope he get indicted SOON!
There should not be 2 standard for “Justice” here. If he commit a crime he need to be held into account just like Joe Blow from Kokomo.
Please, this should be a slam dunk! Trump write out and signed checks himself! If it was so simple to charge and imprison Michael Cohen when he did not personally benefit from the crime, in any way,but should be even simpler to charge and imprison the only person who did benefit by this crime. That he is a former President doesn’t make a bit of difference, it actually makes it all even worse.
💯
How come nobody calls Trump a john,
When referring to his interaction with a prostitute?
Donnie dumb dumb 😂
I wish ya’ll would address the fact that trump appears to be playing a political game by running for office again to try for immunity and avoid jail. Obviously he’s not running out of love for his country because he doesn’t love America.
That is absolutely why he is running again. He has no interest in actual governing. He only seeks to avoid liability.
GO Get’em boys ,my only dream/fantasy in life is to see him in handcuffs 🙏 🤲 LOCK HIM UP along with all his kids including Baron.
*C H U M P* 🤡
SAVE AMERICA FROM CHUMP 🤡
*”LET’S HOLD TERRORISTS ACCOUNTABLE AGAIN”*
It’s taken SEVEN YEARS to think about prosecuting trump for Fraud & Election law. Really!? HOLD HIM ACCOUBTABLE ALREADY!
That’s what you do with hookers, you pay them! Leave out president alone
What if he refuses?
Nothing
I can’t wait to see what Trump screaches about on his dump social after this news.
Lock that SOB up.
Trump cannot do anything “Honestly”, Trump and Honesty don’t go together.
So you can pay a woman for a knobber, but you can’t pay her to shut her mouth, and stop talking
PAB..
Another attempt to defame Trump be for elections
Trump never knew her or heard of her
Time to indict the criminal traitor. Let it be the first of many.
Trump paid a woman to shut up and stop talking, what is wrong with that.
@Leston Thompson He was running for office champ. That is a campaign finance felony. Trump willfully violated multiple campaign finance laws by orchestrating the Daniels payment, including by obscuring the source of the money, violating contribution limits, and violating the corporate contribution ban.
@Michael Dollar Think they’ll give him a pass like they gave Bill Clinton?
Unfortunately…T-Rump behaves like a criminal & has criminal tendencies! I’m sorry if this is offensive to his supporters but it’s true & if they will let the real truth be told he doesn’t care about his supporters. He cares about his own selfish desires.
Why is it against the law to pay a woman to shut up?
in other words, “We’re about to jack you up, bro…do you have anything to say for yourself?”…
Haaaaaaaa !! You people are a joke
Nothing Burger, waiting for the biggie, Jack Smith👍👍👍
Every Time Trump turns on the News, He is slapped in the face with a Federal Crime….And he knows they will not let him walk on to a life with no worries. Trump’s Life is a Bag of Trash.
They should have gone after him on RICO charges. This is small potatoes compared to that. Is Bragg giving Trump another break??
We all seem to be learning that if you want to get away with crimes… run for president.
Lock him up, and have Texas pay for it
Trump isn’t smart enough to testify without perjuring himself.
Good point. He can’t keep up with how inconsistent his statements are, so basically he’s just lying at all times.
Trump denies the affair, but still paid over $130,000 to buy her silence? So what’s his defense on that I wonder. 😅
Please. You all know that the case will be Rock solid.
Others have ignored subpoenas, Trump might do the same. If he appears, he’ll plead the 5th. Everyone knows that he lies every time he opens his mouth, including his lawyers, who will do everything they can to avoid him taking the stand. They know he will perjure himself endlessly.
Lol… so Trump cheated on his wife and newborn son and paid off the skank so that voters would believe he was an honorable man…. never-ending fraud…
Trump indictments are long overdue.
T-Rump has trampled over long standing unwritten rules of decorum . He’s also used the judicial system to stone wall justice for his many wrong doings!
For sure… Traitor Trumpanzee will not show up 4life……
I don’t care how small the charges are !! Lock him up, — jay walking ,cursing in public, eating McDonald’s food anything just put those handcuffs on him and parade him to the cameras.OH it’s gonna be just beautiful.
This “small potatoes” BS is just going to help Deranged Donnie.
I’ll believe it when I see it. He gets away with everything.
A crime is a crime. 4 yrs? Doesn’t seem like a lot BUT for trump its an election season. Lmfao
I’m woke to the 🍊🤡 criminal enterprise family
Its about time lock that moron up.
THE JURY HAVE A COPY OF THE CHECK PAID TO STORMY DANIELS, HOW MUCH EVEIDENTS DO THEY NEED, A ACT OF GOD COME ON HE DID IT AND HE CHEATED ON HIS WIFE MILAINIA WHILE SHE WAS PREGNANT WITH HIS SON.
It’s always a political season so it cannot be a reason not to indict a former president. If you don’t do it now when is the proper time?
Can 90 seconds be considered an affair?
😂😂😂
LOCK HIM UP!!! LOCK HIM UP!!! LOCK HIM UP!!!
What’s with the ‘invitation’, He should have been arrested years ago, just like you or I would have been.
invited, What, are having a luncheon?
“(Disgraced Donald Jail-duck TRE45QN) Trump invited to appear before Manhattan grand jury in hush money case” so let’s otherwise “Convince It Forward” with Laus DEO
Golden showers
lol this is just sad,yall need to move on and worry about what’s going on right now.
$130,000, I didn’t pay that much for by condo.
trump** should have stayed on the porch.
Why hasn’t Hillary Clinton or Biden go through this much questioning? I am. Democrats and starting to wonder what is really going on
“Invited?” Yeah, right. He will decline the invitation.
Or he will say ” I am sorry but I have other engagements ” Can’t come thank you though “
if i could go back and change my vote from Dem to Rep – I’d do it in a heartbeat. wasn’t a huge fan of Trump…. but after Biden…. I’m willing to go back. I’m not a party loyal voter.
You are obviously quite F-ed in the head.
@Heather Kempf — ah…. a biden supporter speaks cerebrally.
it’s time to put this orange piece of filth in jail.
She had to be desperate to have anything to do with conald.
He is disgusting in so many ways.
ByeBye traitor conald it’s nice to see you GO
Lock him up. Lock him up
charge him already for the love of God
We The People love you Mr President Trump! ❤️
STORMY DANIEL ISSSSS BAAAAAAAAACK!👍🏻🙏🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥳
Trump is not going to be prosecuted because from Garland on down the attorneys general a afraid to lose. They take as granted Trump is powerful when he is not, I think he is a house of cards.
When tRump is FINALLY tried and convicted of ALL of his crimes he will go to prison for the rest of eternity!!!
Boy, New York is tough. Martha Stewart, Plaxico Burress, Captain Kangaroo, Mister Greenjeans.
But, but, but… he took water to Ohio. 🤪
If trump is indicted, that’ll be my dream vacationland 🎉 !!!
I’ve never been invited to court. Who says white privilege doesn’t exist. Oh sh— I’m white and I can clearly see it. Put him in jail and take him out of the daily spotlight. Better yet take him to Mexico and let them build him some walls.
Invited !!!!
And the Biden Crime Family continues.
P.T. Barnum ; “You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. ( “You can fool too many of the people too much of the time”? ) WHY IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU, DOING YOUR BEST TO HELP THIS
( Psychopath- Narcissists – Sociopath – Pathological ) Liar ? W H Y ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The tip of the iceberg (orange snow cone) is that he has zero morals zero character zero class. Countess Louanne’s song…MONEY CANT BUY YOU CLASS…. is the perfect description of that entire DNA flock
Make America Great Again in 2024 !
If trump is innocent he will be more than happy to appear in front of the grand jury to clear himself. If he is guilty expect him to refuse.
🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉
Indict the orange turd, Bragg!!!
He will take the 5th
doj bragg is corrupt…..dont think for a moment he will arrest trump
.
Who is going to invite him to prison
The NY DA is afraid of Trump. The NY DA is using smoke and mirrors to avoid prosecuting Trump, even though he/she has ALL the necessary info for a successful prosecution. The NY DA is either afraid of Trump or Trump has dirt on the NY DA and the DA is afraid that the dirt will be released to the public. They were not afraid to prosecute M. Cohen and with no problem. NY DA: TRUMP delay, delay, delay.
I think he might decline. I mean there is that possibility.
I mean when you *invite* criminals to testify, they tend not to show up.
Just tell frump they are throwing a rally or party for him and his will show up.
Lol the media is hoping wishing and praying that they get Trump but this is Trump majority of the country is backing him up everyone is tired of all the BS coming from the left
This is so wrong and has be for to long, it’s said that no one is above the law, but this white government and justice system are going to let trump off without out doing time and paying for his years of corruption and injustice. To the point of coursing an insurrection during his time as president, the havoc he’s still going to continue to cause! In or out of office, this person has had people to loose their lives by his actions of lies and deception, in my opinion him and others here in the United States have been planted here as Russian disrupter to hurt to U.S. By destroying a civil war and our democracy. By Their Cayuse and disrupting tactics. They must be stopped! In my opinion!
Former President in title only. More like foreign asset. He needs held accountable. Guantanamo is too good for him.
The traitor, coward, white collar criminal, and DOMESTIC TERRORIST is public enemy # 1. Put him where he belongs. 🖤
I have been indicted atleast 30 times. Not once did they offer me to testify. Must only be when your rich.
nbc nothing on the Afgahistan withdrawl hearings? Too embarrasing for your beloved biden so therefore it doesnt fit your one sided weak agenda. Bet if trump had been responsible for the withdrawl disaster bet youd be all over it. People watch a legit news source if you want thear whats really going on. nbc ignores at least 50 % of the news.
Liberals: Once Trump is indicted and given the death penalty we will celebrate by robbing several liquor stores. Hehe.
They may also respectfully ask , ” sir , do you prefer to serve life or 100yrs.” ..
Stormy said it was the worse 30sec. .of her life ..(Y) 👉👌
Just one more unwarranted, inappropriate, unfounded and irrelevant charge or action or media attention towards Trump that will not amount to anything but, continue to attempt to vilify him in the eye of the public, to hurt him politically in an unwarranted, unfair and inappropriate fashion. And, in the meantime, “this could be drawn out over time,” and, “how might this impact Trump’s 2024 campaign?” This is just another attack against Trump that is purely political, using the justice system as a POLITICAL WEAPON against Trump.
QUESTIONS:
DO you think that Russia is no threat to us as Obama vehemently stated in the 2012 election?
DO you still think that the CCP is a friend of ours and is no big threat as Biden has repeatedly said, fairly recently, especially in his 2020 election campaign?
DO you still believe that Nick Sandman was a racist bully?
DO you still believe Smollet?
DO you still believe that Trump had a direct connection with Alpha bank of Moscow?
DO you still believe that a “pee-tape” exists?
DO you still believe that Trump and Carter Page are “russian assets?”
DO you still believe all of the many months of BLM and ANTIFA riots were not riots, but, “peaceful protests?”
Do you still think that the 2020 election was NOT stolen, byt the DNC using many different ways?
DO you still believe that the January 6th riot was an actual “insurgency?”
DO you still believe that the covid 19 virus did not come out of the WIV and that Fauci was NOT sanctioning gain of function research there?
DO you still believe that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden have no connections to CCP corporations and never received tens of millions from Ukraine, especially, Burisma, or from Moscow and the CCP?
DO you still believe that the Hunter Biden laptop does not exist, or, if you believe that it does, do you still believe that it is “russian disinformation?”
Do you still believe that Ukraine is “winning” the war, and, that Putin is dying of either a neurological disease and/or cancer?
Do you still believe that Russia is out of armaments, tanks, planes, APCs, artillery, missiles and soldiers?
Do you still believe that the russian economy will be totally imploded within “weeks?”
DO you still believe that Putin and Xi are NOT working together against us, depleting us of energy and weapons of war?
Do you still believe that the Mara-Lago raid was justified, warranted, appropriate and/or legally executed?
The left repeatedly hid the truth, actually buried it, while they submitted almost countless false narratives that were fabricated, fictional tales in essence. The leftist DNC and DOJ used the FBI to do this by controlling leftist media outlets and social media, especially, twitter and facebook. Zuckerberg admitted to this, and, Elon exposed this through the release of the twitter files; and, it is not all out yet. There is far more to come, especially, along with the new, REAL house congressional investigations and hearings.
PROGRESSIVES: PREPARE TO BE FURTHER DISILLUSIONED AND/OR EXPOSED.
Nice copy and paste 😂😂
@Randy Marsh You are most welcome! When I write something that is accurate, relevant, and warranted, and, it applies to more than one comment, why would I re-type it, taking unnecessary time? I hope that you liked it, and, I would like to ask you, where is the “pee-tape?” LOL!
And you get the f*** if you gave anybody hush-hush money who cares anything to charge him with some stupid s*** so he can’t run for president again that’s the what kind of f****** country we we run now we’re not willing to make America America great again or what and this is coming from our own government they’re trying to Shack Trump trump for being a good person and making America good again and have to rely on ourselves and not other foreign countries wow
I would vote for Trump a thousand times I don’t give a s*** what anybody says
He’s gotta go
Not gonna happen. This is all just sound and fury to make it seem as if they are actually considering an indictment. They aren’t. They never were. There will be some last minute issue that will pop up in the nick of time to give the NY AG a reason not to indict. The same thing will happen with Jack Smith. The same thing will happen with Fani Willis. Trump will never be indicted. By anyone. For anything. Ever. This is a show.
INVITED!! HEHE
Yours sin find you out Mr Trump I always knew you’re a hypocrite and a lier !
