The dumbest case ever just got dumber. The charges brought against President Trump by New York City DA Alvin Bragg make no sense. You would think that if you were going to indict a President of the United States that you would have a case. But this case offers nothing.
DA Bragg should resign. His case against Trump is shockingly weak.
On Tuesday, immediately after receiving the indictment against President Trump, TGP analyzed the document. What stuck out was that Soros-backed Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg claims in his charges that President Trump made the accounting entries himself related to this case.
The Gateway Pundit pointed out previously that this is nonsense. No CEO in the world presiding over a billion-dollar company is making entries in General Ledger or cutting checks. This is total nonsense.
Attorney Mike Davis concurs and labels Bragg’s case as one of the dumbest cases ever.
This indictment is an abomination… it’s unbelievable to me. He is much dumber than I expected…
I don’t get stunned very often. I was stunned by watching his press conference today. It’s because he’s incredibly dumb and his indictment is a complete abomination.
Davis points out that the crimes aren’t identified in the document. Bragg says that he doesn’t have to list the crimes.
The case lists 34 counts. These counts consist of the following accounting actions:
- 11 invoices
- 12 vouchers (in February 2017 there were two vouchers)
- 11 checks cut
These are the 34 charges – they are related to 11 transactions. What’s the crime?

Many of these transactions appear to be monthly recurring fees being paid perhaps as a retainer? We just don’t know from the filing.
We also don’t know what the amounts are on these individual transactions.
