He's facing up to 136 years in prison, since each of the 34 charges carries up to four years in prison, but even if he's convicted, it's very unlikely that he'll get the maximum.
This particular story has reached its zenith. The Georgia stuff will be held out there for a bit but the heat is being turned up and will be increased on the MAL docs obstruction of justice nonsense.

Though a smart person will see the same issue. Trying for a process crime related to an alleged other crime that was / is not a crime.

This is literally what Hillary Clinton's campaign did, except orders of magnitude worse. Intentionally "misleading" the intelligence agencies to illegally spy on an opponents campaign. I put "misleading" in quotes because they knew it was fake and did it anyway.

The way they stacked those charges on what essentially was one act likely would not pass constitutional muster. So that aggregate sentence would not be imposed, not maybe not even allowed if it were go to trial beyond a single count or two.

But the failure to state a crime in this mess deprives Trump of due process. He needs to know what he is being accused of.

I don't think this should be analyzed like a typical criminal case, but should be looked at solely in terms of political considerations. If the first hearing on challenges to the merits isn't until December, any ruling, appeal, etc. puts you on the doorstep of the 2024 election and well into the primary. This was filed to affect the election, not to prosecute Trump with any meritorious charges.

Also, it appears the indictment is based on old evidence Bragg had at his disposal since he took office and the same evidence his predecessor used to consider charges. If that's correct, then why did he wait until now? In my opinion, it's to make this a campaign issue and no other reason.

Finally, there are still pending issues in Georgia and the classified documents case that will likely be piled on about the same time Trump gets the Republican nomination. Timing is likely not a coincidence and is probably all coordinated by Dem operatives.
This is a very risky and desperate strategy if it plays out like this. It is already a clown show, and the chance of this backfiring on them is very, very real in electoral terms IMO.

Even if convicted, he wouldn't face any prison time for these minimal charges.

As a convicted felon he'd still be eligible to run for POTUS in 2024. Could argue it helps him, at least in the primary.

However, I don't believe he would be eligible to vote (for himself) in Florida. So -1 vote.

These are radicals with a media who is on their side. Just look how many people believe Trump is the worst person in history, it's probably not as risky as you think.

He was not continuously out of the state AND there is also a stipulation that you are out of state with the purpose of avoiding prosecution in an attempt to have the statute of limitations run out.

But you seem to be on board with the level of thinking Bragg is on. Congrats...?

You don't have any idea what you're talking about. Your zeal and giddyness to "GOT HIM" is clouding your ability to think.

What is the central evidence here as ledger entries in the books of a privately owned corporation. First, Trump did not make those entries even when he was running the business. He may have directed the entries to be made but proving that is hard. And they haven't really even said that exactly.

Now, when he was already in office and not in the know about what was happening with the business? How would that be proven? And again, they haven't even explained that either.

So yes, that makes a difference.

I don't think he should be charged, but the stipulation you mentioned isn't in New York's statute of limitations.

1) Paying $ to someone in exchange for their legally agreed-to consent to quietly go away isn't a crime…

2) Even if #1 was false, Trump wasn't in charge of his business dealings in 2017…it was in a trust…. So how could Trump have filed false business records for a business he wasn't running?

I mean…is this really what we have indicted a former head of state on? This is what has the world a tizzy?

Jesus H. Christ…this nation has completely jumped the shark…

Not only that, but it's exactly what Bragg is doing NOW.

From August 2015 to December 2017, the Defendant orchestrated a scheme with others to influence the 2016 presidential election by identifying and purchasing negative information about him to suppress its publication and benefit the Defendant's electoral prospects.

is very similar to:
From April 2023 to December 2023, the District Attorney orchestrated a scheme with others to influence the 2024 presidential election by indicting him of vague process crimes in order to promote continuous negative publication and benefit the Democrat's electoral prospects.

I don't work in NY state court and I certainly don't do any criminal work. Is there some mandamus-type remedy to move the ball on dismissing this, uh, "indictment" in a more expeditious manner or are we stuck waiting until the court gets around to a motions docket at the end of 23/beginning of 24?

Yet it is a fact. And the human refuse you support would most certainly put conservatives in camps if they could. They have already done so.
