The lawyer, Keith Davidson, testified that the release of the “Access Hollywood” tape, in which Donald J. Trump described assaulting women, increased the urgency of talks to buy and bury Ms. Daniels’s story of a sexual encounter with him. The $130,000 payment is at the heart of the case.
If Trump gets jail time, it should be from right before the nomination to after the day of the election. Since he can only be jailed one month per offense, I would hold off on jail until he can’t get out before the election. Ideally, the first time Trump sees prison should be after a jury conviction - as he has already set up a “woe is me, the judge is a liberal plant” defense if the jailing comes purely under the discretion of judge.
joke’s on you imagining there’s a circumstance in which he’d simply accept responsibility for the constant parade of crimes he commits. he’s gonna whine and play victim no matter how obviously guilty he is or how much preferential treatment he’s received.

It won’t be timed like that due to his currently pending contempt charges — it’ll look like 30 days or less, happening in May.
