Trump is not charged with state crimes.
All the charges are federal.
“Trump is not charged with state crimes. All the charges are federal.”
Doesn’t matter. The evidence they’re using was obtained illegally unless the person recording had a warrant. Now perhaps the corrupt prosecution will backdate a document and claim that person was deputized in a criminal investigation and was working undercover. But Florida is a two-party consent state. That means the recording was illegal and cannot be used as evidence.
My point is that the critical evidence of a supposed recording, which is probably made up based on the witness they’ve turned, is not even legal in the first place.
They basically turned a witness with a plea deal saying that unless they have his full cooperation he’s going to prison. So they flipped him and got him to provide his recollection of a conversation which is probably faulty. Then they claim to have a recording and provide a transcript of a nonexistent recording.
I highly doubt the recording even exists. But if it does, it would have required a warrant in order to be legally admissible. The exception might be that it supposedly corroborates sworn testimony, but a judge would usually toss it. It certainly does not meet the high bar of unimpeachable evidence for the bombastic accusations being made against a former president whom the people have trusted with all of the government’s secrets.
