BREAKING: Judge Merchan drops a bombshell on Donald Trump in his criminal hush money trial, reveals a slew of damaging information that prosecutors can mention.

This is it the worst case scenario for Trump...

If Trump takes the stand, the judge has ruled that prosecutors can mention six crucial court determinations from four different proceedings.

1. The $354.9 million fraud case he lost in New York in February for inflating his net worth.

2. Trump was fined $5,000 for refusing to remove a lie-riddled post about a law clerk.

3. He was fined $10,000 for violating a court order by smearing a court clerk.

4. He lost his first E. Jean Carroll defamation case for $5 million. The jury ruled that he defamed and sexually abused her.

5. Trump lost a second defamation against Carroll after he smeared her again. He owes $83.3 million.

6. The case New York Attorney General Letitia James brought against him that showed that the Trump Organization repeatedly engaged in fraud.

Any single one of these would be devastating if mentioned in front of a jury. All of them presented together would be an utter disaster for Trump. They prove that he is a habitual, unrepentant criminal.....
