So what did Trump think would happen?

He's complaining that this trial is taking away from his campaigning.

Well, if not this trial, it would be another one. And if not that one, still another one...

Most of us learn that if you act a certain way you are going to be spending a lot of time defending yourself. Trump never learned that.

Paying off a pr0n star to hide an affair that you had while your mail-order wife was pregnant with your kid - what did he think would happen here?

The part I'm still wrapping my head around is that the payoff itself wasn't illegal, but writing it off as a legal expense was. What the seven layer fuсk is wrong with this country?

@LordShadowfire See, once you define it as a legal expense on paper it now becomes a crime.

@LordShadowfire It was a [i]campaign [/i] expense. He did it so he could win the election, but he didn’t write it off that way. Thus, he lied about what people’s contributions to his campaign would go to. I think.
