The key points regarding why President Trump's Manhattan convictions are unconstitutional, based on the cited source [1], are:
Altering business records is only a crime under New York law if done to conceal another underlying crime. However, there was no predicate crime that Trump could have been concealing. [1]
The alleged concealment of campaign finance violations does not constitute a crime, as the Supreme Court has ruled that campaign expenditure limits violate the First Amendment. [1]
The graphic testimony about Trump's alleged affair with Stormy Daniels was irrelevant and improperly tainted the jury. [1]
Trump's convictions violate the First Amendment's protection of free speech as originally understood, by punishing him for non-disclosure of information related to the 2016 election. [1]
A highly partisan jurisdiction like Manhattan cannot be allowed to undermine a federal presidential election through such prosecutions. [1]
The source argues that Trump's First Amendment claims regarding these unconstitutional convictions require expedited review by the U.S. Supreme Court before the 2024 election. [1]
