The indictment of Donald J. Trump IS HERE and the "Statement of facts" IS HERE. The situation, as it is represented within the text, is even more laughable than we could have imagined.
In the statement of facts, District Attorney Alvin Bragg says Donald Trump intended 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. In order to execute the unlawful scheme, the participants violated election laws and made and caused false entries in the business records of various entities in New York" However, you will note one key element missing, the statute he supposedly violated.
Every single one of the 34 instances when business records were "Falsified" to conceal payments to Trump legal counsel, Michael Cohen, happened between February 2017 and October 2017.
Guess what President Trump was NOT doing within the Trump organization in 2017, running it!
When Donald J. Trump won the November 2016 presidential election, he subsequently divested from the Trump organization, handing over control to Eric Trump and the company officers and directors.
Throughout 2017, presumably when these false business records were created, President Donald J. Trump was not directing any accounting, disbursements or business record keeping within the organization.
The text of the 19-page letter reads: "I, Donald J. Trump, hereby resign from each and every office and position I hold" in more than 400 entities listed on the following pages.
