The dominant rumor on the internet over the weekend was that Donald Trump will soon be indicted, possibly even handcuffed, on camera. Is that true? We can’t say.
We do know that Trump is the subject of a grand jury investigation in Manhattan. That’s a city that voted against Donald Trump by almost 80% in the last presidential election. We also know that the grand jury was impaneled by a Soros funded D.A. called Alvin Bragg, who looks and acts like a Tawana Brawley-era Al Sharpton. So, we would assume, on the basis of that evidence, that it’s pretty likely Trump does get charged with something at some point.
But charged with what? That’s the question that should matter in a free country. Laws or universal laws apply to all citizens equally, precisely because all citizens are considered equal. For generations, this was very obvious to American liberals. In fact, it was the basis of their worldview. That was back when liberals opposed Jim Crow, and we’re not trying to reinstate it as something called equity. We’re not liberals, but we retain the traditional American view, which is that laws must be applied equally, or else they’re not laws at all. Justice must be blind, or else it is tyranny.
So, we spent the day with help of a lawyer on our staff, trying to assess the likely charges against Donald Trump and here’s what we found. Eight years ago, as he was running for president, Trump paid a porn actress called Stormy Daniels $130,000. Daniels alleged that she and Trump had at one point had sex. Trump denied that. He still denies it. But in exchange for promising not to repeat that claim in public, Trump, through his then attorney, Michael Cohen, sent Stormy Daniels a check.

Was that legal? Well, we can answer that question. Because there was a campaign in progress at the time, officials at the Federal Election…
