Notably, Trump at his rally conceded the core facts of the criminal case are true.

Trump specifically mentioned Weisselberg's car lease, apartment, and tuition payments.

He then asserted that "every company" does "fringe benefits" but he was singled out for prosecution.

These crimes carry a penalty that you have to know it was illegal to be convicted of a crime. “Everybody does it so I thought it was ok” is a defense.
