He's using his compulsory stay in NY to make the Dems worry about his support in NY, which he is building even as the hush-money trial continues. The Dem run the political machine. He built parts of the skyline, and knew his construction workers by name.

Gotham has RCV for a reason.

Deep State is importing migrants onto NYC for the same reason.

NYC wasn’t voting for this expletive-deleted.

Fox interviewed one union president this morning. He stated that of his 9,000 members, support for Trump was 3 to 1.....

Philosophically speaking, and I am speaking philosophically here, what’s the difference between a “hush money” payment and a “blackmail” payment?

Yes. Blackmail, nuisance lawsuit, whatever. Same difference.

More proof that the working man loves Trump. It’s the leftist elites that hate him.

The GOP "managerial" class hates Trump too.

The difference is whether the money was solicited by the recipient or volunteered by the one paying.

So, if Stormy solicited the payout, then she would be guilty of the crime of blackmail, and Trump would be the victim.

It just might be a very interesting trial that will instantly go dark on CNN, et al!
