Trump's Nonspeak Becomes Bragg's Wrongspeak IG12 - Instant Grace with Jim Babka
Manage episode 415271441 series 3498664
The law is specific. "Safe harbor words" define and determine what the Federal Election Commission regulates. No one is claiming Donald Trump used those words. It's hard to tell if Trump's lawyers understand the concept of "Express Advocacy," but if they do, and they use the argument found here, then D.A. Alvin Bragg lacks the felony he needs. So what is going on here? This is a cursory review. But we'll also show you where you can learn the complete case.
