  1. Criminals, or republicans!

  2. Another TRUMP FOOL UNDER THE BUS..!

  3. Another leftist hit piece. Nice spin as usual. If this CFO actually committed a crime, that’s on him. It’s not a Trump problem.

  4. In other news, Trumps-sisters-cousins-step uncles cleaning lady is being charged for drug possession!
    The walls are closing in! Reee!

  5. I just love how all of the people around TRUMP is falling one by one

  6. Trump fans. This was your boys top buddy. Still think he is a great guy? Of course you do.

  7. well we know they are just going after trump, so maybe they can get this guy to tell stories, to save his own butt.

  8. Socialists,he’s running again

  9. This was not a plot to help weiselberg avoid taxes. This was a way for Trump to increase his pay without having to match taxes.

  10. And get paid millions for six months in jail.

  11. That buss is getting a lot thrown under it lately.

  12. The SS Trump is sinking and all the rats are jumping ship. What a beautiful thing.

  13. Not a single word about this is his own crime own charge with his own money, has absolutely nothing to do with Trump or a Trump company. Idk what's a bigger joke…..calling this "news" or you idiots just lapping it up no questions asked 🤔👌🤡🌎

  14. I'm for Americans, no more democrat lies and hate!!!!!

  15. Five months for 15 years of cheating the IRS? Seems like a good deal for him.

  16. Don’t let the news or politicians divide us! We are not each others enemies!

  17. Come on snitch on the orange stain

  18. He will pay a fine or the back taxes. He will do no jail time.

  19. “Ill plead guilty so trump can walk and pardon me when he steals 2024”

  20. If the law is subject to a fine, then the law doesn’t apply to the rich 👎🏽

  21. Isaiah 49:15- “Can a woman forget her nursing child And have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you.

    Psalm 127:3- Behold, children are a gift of the Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward.

    Matthew 18:10- “See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven continually see the face of My Father who is in heaven.

    Matthew 18:5- “And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me;

    Matthew 18:6- but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

  22. 15 years of criminality, and he gets MONTHS?
    I bet I wouldn't fair that well, after cheating on my taxes for 15 years.
    Shame on NY! Shame on all of the people that help crooks get off!

  23. The whole point of squeezing Weisselberg was to get him to flip on Trump. He decided to fall on his sword instead and take the brunt for Trump, ruining his life like so many Trump followers have done.

  24. NO MERCY SENTENCE❗️he has cheated the American people out of BILLIONS of $$. Give him the maximum😡💰😡💰

  25. Continued Democrat corrupt witch hunts

  26. Hunter Biden. Mums the word.

  27. If he pleads guilty, he can no longer plead the 5th, right?
    What does that mean for Trump?

  28. Five months? Hes has obviously flipped.

  29. Is Al Sharpton next??

  30. the best ppl turn out to be felons,who knew?
