#Trump #StormyDaniels #Indictment
Oh, this Whop uses words I’ve never ever heard before like humpty Dumpty trumpty🐪 I feel like this Whops head is fixing to do this👉🤯💥🌬️hard 🤭
He’s a goomba
@David LaValley 🤔 poomba booby booby poop butt 🗽nanny nanny boo boo 🗽🥳👉😡💥fart 💨fart toot toot 💩🏌️
What a strange man he is. Was he an alien in MIB?
I think i also remember him in the X-Files
😂😂😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good point they need to subpoena this guy hahahaha loose lips sink ships
Trump is a loser, democrats keep winning.
Of course he would he pay checks! Duh!
This guy is not very smart, Trump is Guilty
Absolutely nothing on him! Doing the same as Romania is doing to the Tate’s! Despicable! Those that disagree, hope it happens to you!
Campaign funds
Trumpy was not President at the time, does that not matter?
Meatloaf.
As a Republican I hope they hurry up and indict him because I know they’re Republicans DAs who are ready to indict the criminal Biden family. Lets fight fire with fire.
how is this lawyer still on this case 😂😂😂
You mean mobster lawyer.
Joey Taco gonna be replaced by either 3 FIngers Louie or No Chin Charlie..
@ Nature Shorts 😂🤣
Won’t be for long
no other options. 😂
Ahh I see NBC right back to the Sunday coverage of the fake indictments scandal! hahaha Soo predictable. You people need a life already. Such sick and obsessed people you seem to be. All that hate in your heart isn’t good for you. 😘
Am I supposed to care for the leftists feelings?… the answer is nope
This is what I don’t get: Bragg, at first did not want to prosecute this case and even federal prosecutors did not take this case until you crazy left progressives pressured and now all of sudden… here we are…
I honestly don’t get why you crazy leftists are 👏 like 🦭 wanting trump to be charged because do you leftists even care for once how weak this crime… pretty much this is a political prosecution we are looking at
Or what’s worse?: Let’s look at Biden’s situations:
-$1m+ from China 🇨🇳
-Hunter Bidens laptop
-top secret documents from 5 different places
Do you democrats even care for that? If you democrats are going to be passionate about this, then why can’t I then be passionate then about the Bidens situation? 🤔… since it seems to a Democrat voter:
“It’s ok to bash Trump but with Biden: I don’t care that he got $1m from China 🇨🇳, I don’t care for the laptop (even though there is strong evidence on it) and I don’t care for the documents being in 5 different places and Biden getting the kiddie treatment”
Looks like Joseph Tacopina likes to powder his nose before going live 🤧
Tacopina is a bald faced liar just like Mango Assolini.
Ok, so Trump used personal funds to pay Stormy money so she wouldn’t talk about the affair, which could have tanked his election. It doesn’t get much more political than that. If you know the man would lie to you to get what he wants and you’re still with him? That’s on You.
Perhaps, claiming it as campaign expenses is the crime, written on campaign checks!
Did the Trump’s and their lawyers get into college .. through the side door?
lol….. mob lawyer fell right into the trap
LMAO, what trap? He made fool out of the dispicable, partisan, cluless HACK, that is
Chuckie Todd!
The guy is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in the country.
You imbicilic partisan morons would be crying bloody murder if a ridiculous case like this was being brought on a Democrat.
Try looking at things without party lines for once.
I doubt they were personal funds.
Welcome to “Meet the Depressed” hosted by CIA operative Chuck Todd and brought to you by Project Mockingbird and Pfizer. 😂😅🤣
Tacopina , people lie , and coerce other people to lie .
What doesn’t lie are verifiable documents and taped phone calls
Plus Stormy Daniels lawyer submitted her cache of documents and texts . Tacopina is “one day wonder of a lawyer “.
Joe gets flustered, turns beet red and sweats like a fat schlub in a sauna.
The Don is a waste; not a candidate, more like candida. Stuck on your tongue each time you talk it wants to come out.
Reveal the Congressional Hush Fund Hypocrites
2018
Which is worse: candidate, businessman, and then still private citizen Donald Trump using his own money to make what Hillary Clinton might call “bimbo eruptions” go away to protect his brand and himself from personal embarrassment, or Congress using taxpayer money in a slush fund to pay off those sexually harassed by sitting officeholders?
As Penny Nance, president and CEO of Concerned Women for America, notes in USA Today:
Literally a year ago – as the #MeToo era was erupting – the nation was waking up to news that a secret congressional “hush fund” had been used by Members of Congress to pay off accusers of sexual misconduct. Taxpayer money – yours and mine – was used to pay off these alleged victims[.] …
Nobody knows how many congressmen and Senators are involved, and if [Pelosi] is a willing participant to keep all of this a secret she will forfeit credibility on every other issue[.] …
What we know already is devastating. We know congressmen John Conyers (D-Mich.) and Blake Fahrentold (R-Tex.) used this “hush fund” to settle with alleged victims. Both men have already left Congress.
😂THIS guy is a lawyer? Only the best people 😂
Didn’t he fund his campaign?
Apparently not
Had Mr. Trump wrote a check from his HIS PERSONAL CHECKING ACCOUNT, then wrote in the bottom right line, a notation “Hush Money”. Mr.Cohen would not have been convinced of Campaign Finance Fraud. And Mr. Trump himself would be not under investigation.
Nada, Zip, Nothing. Perfectly legal.
Uh..but..but..uh..but Chuck! (Lol!)
Why is the attorney so sweaty??
Magats are so special!.
Yup! I’m sure they took the short bus to the latest rally/ clown show!! 😂🤣😂🤣
This is the kind of lawyer you get when you don’t pay your lawyers no other lawyers want to become a defendant. Love it!
Like the mafia would say a goomba 😂🤣
Sucks for the guy he’s representing, *not* a good look
The funds he Trump personally stole from his donors… lol Trump lawyers are lying just like Trump…
Your also going down we need honest lawyers in the law inforcment
This guy strikes me as a mafia type lawyer. Unfortunately not a very smart or good one! 🤦
Alcoholic, drug addiction.
You bumped your head Joe.
Better call Saul at this point
Karma is going to get him.he defended the Aruba killer!
That guy isn’t a very good lawyer. He’s so spastic and nervous that even if he were telling the truth, he always seems to be FOS. Nervous, sweaty, and twitchy doesn’t look good.
I don’t like making accusations without evidence but I’m getting “fun powder” vibes from him
I seen that he looked jacked up on mountain dew👁👁 💯
Why do people hate lawyer? lol
for the love of god and all that is holy please stop it with the stupid outros. HI THANKS FOR BEING A FAN OF HOARDERS. everyone hates it. stop.
America deserves its karma, my hedges are on China and Russia. Scott Ritter for President
*Checks in hush money case were NOT STOLEN funds Tr💩mp World goon insists upon insisting.
*CHUMP Org* checks in hush-money case were ‘personal funds,’ *CHUMP* lawyer says
*CHUMP20TOLIFE* 🇺🇲🇺🇲
*”LET’S HOLD TERRORISTS ACCOUNTABLE AGAIN”*
Tacopina, you sound so stupid that even you can testify to that. What do you stand to gain? Loose your law license? As opposed to what?
Hard to believe these clowns are still running these witch hunts…
Let’s see all the footage from january 6th…
Republicans don’t want to show anymore. Why? 😂
@E2772 Mendonca Well both sides are hiding the fact it was staged, McConnell and Piglosi’s people
Keep talking Tacopenis!!!
TACOPENIS!!
We need a prez who has balls and procesess the ho’s.
Look at what Trump and MAGAT Republicans have become. They are sick and delusional attacking, threatening, and demonization public servants doing their jobs while supporting and defending insurrectionists and domestic terrorists. They are not patriots, but traitors.
It must bruise your soul to be a lawyer like that.
Tacopina is just another Trump lawyer willing to embarrass himself and destroy whatever little reputation he has left for the cold, hard cash!! A grifter. Trump doesn’t even pay his own lawyers. He has other people paying them.
I see this guy needing a lawyer.
His eyes tell it all
How is this the lawyer of a so called billionaire
“The Donald J. Trump Foundation, which was a charitable organization founded by former US President Donald Trump, was dissolved in 2019 following a lawsuit by the New York Attorney General’s office. The lawsuit alleged that the foundation had engaged in a ‘shocking pattern of illegality’ and that Trump had used the foundation’s funds for personal and political purposes. The lawsuit also alleged that Trump had used the foundation to settle legal disputes, to purchase personal items such as portraits of himself, and to make political donations. Additionally, the lawsuit claimed that the foundation had violated federal and state laws governing nonprofit organizations by failing to operate under proper governance and oversight. As a result of the lawsuit, the Trump Foundation agreed to dissolve and distribute its remaining assets to other charities approved by the Attorney General’s office. President Trump also agreed to pay $2 million in damages for misusing the foundation’s funds.”
Can you imagine. There’s a tap at your door and this lowlife nightmare’s standing there—staring at ya’?
Lolo
14 Business Violations, 14 Tax Fraud Violations. Tax Payers should NOT be paying for trump’s sexuality.
I’m thinking Todd’s days are numbered he’s not aging well seems to have turned angry argues with guests often goes off the message to chase butterflies and frequently off the rails simply not the sort of kook to moderate this worthless program anymore who knows he might just be upset at being a marionette and a stooge then finally what’s up with his front teeth he looks like a beaver or a woodchuck anymore okay that’ll work we’ll call him Woodchuck Todd from now on
He sounds like Jimney Cricket
If I were a Republican I would be worried about the weaponization of the justice department. Because they commit so many crimes.
Dems DAs can get him on anything since 2015…. because there’s nothing on him😂😂😂😂
He is a good lawyer. Soros is spending a ton of money to get Trump’s mugshot.
590 days till election 🇺🇸 590 more days of ignoring the actual president Santa clause will come to your house 2 more times before the next president takes or keeps power
Joey “Bag o’ Donuts” Tapioca, ladies and gentlemen.
Make Accountability Great Again!
And who cleans up the SLIME When this ambulance chaser leaves the room
“Death and destruction.” Give me a break. Trump is a provocative hypocrite who is not fit to lead our nation. He’s not worth it, folks.
I’m waiting for Joe to turn green and quadruple in size…..it’s going to happen……..any minute now……… aaannyyy minute now………..
I would like some dressing to go with that word salad. 🥗
…whoa trumper-guy, slow down speak clearly and try not to take this so personal. You sound defensive…
Chuck got shot down so fast….Chuck is a fake news anchor that should be fired immediately..
Trump is the most powerful and beloved leader of all time……. Arrest and disbar Bragg immediately…..
Liar liar pants on fire
The lawyer looks drunk asf
Wow, Todd is a bought and sold partisian hack.
His worst offense is being clueless on the subject.
The imbicile Todd is just try to get his narrative out, regardless of the facts.
The JT has more knowledge and brains in his hair folicle, then the dispicable Todd.
The only reason I can think of for this guy to go on NBC and try his case in the court of public opinion is because he knows they will lose this in a court of laws. Well, there is stupid, too. But you can’t fix that.
You’re right you can’t fix it and that’s why you’re still stupid
Republican Party is. Domestic terrorist cell
Arrest bonespurs. Yesterday ✌🏼
The dude is a tweaker. Just watch him for 30 seconds. He’s at 80,000 feet and going Mach 9
Poor sap…
this lawyer’s working hard to get stiffed on payday.
Is this guy high on Crack?
But but but but
Please let them make it personal funds…..pleeeeeaaase!
Thats a spicy meat ball 😊
Donald Trump 2024👍🇺🇸
Nothing bugher
Does anyone even check to see if any of these clownish imbeciles has actual law degrees? The most hilarious thing is that Trump HAS to have met this clown in person and decided “yeah, he can represent me” lmao.
As usual you liars embellished the story. The Lawyer Cohen signed an affidavit that. Trump wasn’t involved with any payments to Daniels !
You don’t MAKE HER SIGN A NDA UNLESS TRUMP PAID HER TO BE QUIET.
Why have this hack attorney on the air? Waste of everyone’s time!
But, but Chuck… this latest Trump Clown Show farce of an attorney… !?!! I would not hire this dude to defend me in a J-walking case. Sad.
Waiting for the msm to investigate Biden family..oh..nothing to report. Show both sides for a change, it would be refreshing.
He graduated from Trump University.
Joe T. looks confident that the Manhattan DA doesn’t have a solid case of which a jury could rule that TFG had broken a written and understandable law. How is the prosecution going to prove without doubt that campaign monies were used to silence a prostitute (ha ha… wasted money, former guy) to help win in 2016? Coincidence does not constitute proof. How do you prove which of TFG’s different monies were used? How do you prove the hush-payment was made to help his campaign for POTUS, and not another reason?
I hope that TFG is convicted of all of his serious crimes. This exercise might only work well for dragging Dumps name through the mud, and deservedly so, in front of Non-Affiliated voters who chose the lesser of two bad choices. But a conviction for a hush-payment? Nah.
Let’s go Trump 2024 woohoo
Why does this guy keep going on interviews. All of them is him arguing with smart people and his gaslighting is not working.
