Days after a New York judge expanded a gag order on Donald Trump meant to curtail “inflammatory” speech ahead of his upcoming criminal hush money trial, the former president tested its limits by disparaging two key witnesses in the case as liars.
He’s one of those people that always has to have the last word.
Edit:
In a post on his Truth Social platform Wednesday, Trump called his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, and the adult film actor Stormy Daniels “two sleaze bags who have, with their lies and misrepresentations, cost our Country dearly!”
Won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome priest?!
Edit 2: Sorry, the actual quote is, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?”
Yeah, I remember hearing some of the recordings of conversations he had with people Trump was defrauding. They were threats really. Very chilling behavior. I still don’t believe that he did a 180 degree turn around in his behavior out of altruism.
He wants to tant the jury pool as well. He wants to make the judge do some drastic so he can have something to appeal.
Like I keep saying they are trying not give him ammunition to appeal on. And I keep saying he going keep appealing no mater what so hold him to the same standards as everyone else. But they won't.
He definitely wants to get thrown in jail. He thinks he can fundraise a lot better from there. Too bad he's unlikely to get sent to Rikers like his CFO was.
The judge should fine him and increase the fines accordingly. Of course you or I would be in jail immediately, but that would play into the orange mobster's hand in this scenario.
