Deep dives
Case 1: Defamation Case and Absurd Damage Award
In an outrageous defamation case, a woman alleged sexual assault by Trump in the 1970s, without any proof or prior report to the police. Trump denied the accusation, calling her a liar. Based on these denials, she was awarded a ludicrous $83 million in damages, which is ridiculous and reflects a severe miscarriage of justice. The case is riddled with errors, with the judge excluding evidence that could have been damaging to her claim and making false statements that Trump was found guilty. This case is a glaring example of politicized lawfare and has exposed the flaws in the American legal system.
Case 2: Fraud Case and Absurd Charges
Another case involves allegations of fraud, where Trump supposedly inflated building values, but obtained loans and paid them back with interest. The banks did not have concerns about the building values, yet this is being portrayed as fraud. Again, this case demonstrates the absurdity of the legal system, where actions that were perfectly acceptable at the time are now being twisted into criminal charges. These cases lack any legal basis and risk further undermining the credibility of the American judicial system.
Potential Supreme Court Intervention
The Supreme Court is likely to intervene in these cases and overturn the absurd verdicts. They may argue that Congress, not the courts, has the authority to decide presidential qualifications. Additionally, they could contend that the 14th Amendment does not apply to these cases or that the verdicts violate key legal principles. The Supreme Court's intervention is crucial to restoring faith in the legal system and rectifying these misguided decisions.
Impact on Democracy and Backlash
These cases not only harm Trump, but they also undermine the legitimacy of the political system. Disqualifying the most popular politician in the United States would be extremely dangerous and could lead to a crisis of legitimacy. The actions taken against Trump serve as a wake-up call, highlighting the politicization and abuse of power within the legal system. It's imperative that the courts address these cases and restore faith and fairness in the American legal system.
