Just reading the BBC feed - I didn't realise there was a second pay-off.

Edit: The reason for the 15% drop is trump has filed to sell 115m shares, can't be sold until September though https://www.marketwatch.com/story/trumps-djt-stock...

When September comes, does he get the share price as it stands now or as it will be in Sept?

He'll get a price which depends on the share price at that time, market conditions at that time, and how much stock is sold. More complicating factors are who will be buying, will there be cornerstone orders, will the company have discovered a new product, how it's core business is doing...

All the filing does is give the legal ability for him (and other material shareholders) to sell when the time comes.

Trump denies ever having had the affair in the first place. So Prosecution needs to prove it happened. Hopefully they've got incontrovertible evidence of that as it's quite pertinent to the charges laid.

Also, it'll be hugely entertaining to see prima facie evidence that he's lying about the affair not having taken place. It is crucial that he is exposed as a liar, and that to happen in a criminal court.
There's probably footage of TFG admitting it, any defence argument built on him testifying is likely to result in a conviction. hehe
He did, couldn't keep up with his many lies, posted on TS that it happened a long time ago

Billionaire trying to save $130,000? Could be expensive....

M.
Already has been, that $130K turned into $420K for Cohen

The election fraud I think is going to be hard to prove, the business fraud is easy (because trump)

The DA's office is asking the judge for an order to show cause for contempt of the gag order, forcing trump to "take down the offending" posts and to remind him that "further violations of the order could result in jail time."

He also seeks a $3,000 fine: $1,000 each, for 3 posts.

If that was me I'd be asking if he could afford the $3000, or does he need to phone a friend biggrin

Stefanik is desperate to be trumps VP.

Posting that she tried filing a criminal referral demanding that AG Merrick Garland immediately investigate Michael Cohen for lying to Congress.
https://twitter.com/RepStefanik/status/17799013584...

Trouble is, she forgets to mention she was told at the time the statute of limitations expired on this a full year before she brought it up...

LOL. DA notes a 9:12 am post today, potentially made inside the courthouse, also violates the order.

Merchan told trump directly speaking to him that if he fails to show up for trial without a reason a warrant will be issued for his arrest.

He's got his scowl on

There's a few reporters saying trump dozed off, i.e.
"trump is nodding off at the defense table, his chin just hit his chest, then his head shot back up."

With regard to the social media posts, trump's lawyer is using the "but he hit me first" defence saying trump was merely "responding to salacious repeated attacks by these witnesses." and therefore did not violate the gag order. No decision on that, however, Merchan did reply "I don't recall that there's an exception if he's being attacked."

The guy at politico has worked out that with no Wednesdays in court and various holidays being observed by the court we won't hear any testimony until May.

Oh and just to add to the fun, Lindell has lost again - SCOTUS ruled against his claim that his constitutional rights were infringed when his phone was seized during investigations into election interference https://www.rawstory.com/mike-lindell-phone-266777...

Rudy has been bhing about his downfall, blaming it on Christopoher Wray not releasing Hunter Biden's hard drive during the 2020 election cycle https://www.rawstory.com/2667770781/

TL;DR old man shouts at cloud

Pleased to hear he's not resisting a rest.

DJT shares down another 15% today.

Trump in court.

Happy days.
DJT also voted to issue more shares in the company in an effort to attract some more capital to the business. It’s a common tactic but it looks terrible.

It also further dilutes Trump and everyone else’s shares too! Dropping in value AND diluted, nice. Keep it up and it’s going to be nothing in a month.

I’m surprised he hasn’t learned his lesson after being sanctioned so heavily for all his previous violations….
