Lot of people are taking Donald Trump’s side against Manhattan DA Bragg’s upcoming charges against ex-President Donald Trump for illegal money paid to a woman to hide his affair with here….
A former US Attorney had Bragg’s back and points out Trump isn’t the only person to have these charges dropped on him…..
Another one recently had convictions pleaded to….
Wel folks?
