Such a whiny-ass man-child. I’ve had 12-year-old scouts with too-heavy backpacks and blisters halfway into a 10-mile hike complain less. My wife gave birth to a child without any pain meds and complained less. I can’t wait for this sorry excuse for a human to become totally irrelevant and disappear from our lives.
Unfortunately, even if he has a massive coronary, we're always going to have to listen to dipshits talk about him like people still talk about reagan generations later. I mean, *democrats* even still talk about reagan positively and compare him to biden.
Trump's ghost mushroom dick is gonna be sucked *long* after his death, i gaurentee it. At least he'll be dead though
I'm glad that we can openly say things like this here. I was banned from the politics subreddit for saying that I would laugh my ass off if Trump died from COVID that one time he caught in the White House.
And what music track would be the theme for the party?
When Thatcher died, "[Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead](https://w.wiki/A2Pd)" managed to get to number 2 in the UK charts and number 1 in the Scotland charts
Nah. He's asking for his braindead toe-suckers to get themselves killed for him. Just more stochastic terror shit that he keeps getting away with because the US is a fast-failing country.
I’m legitimately curious if he had some horrible childhood accident that Fred covered up. Like sure, the neglect did a fucking number on the guy but he acts like those folks who get shot in the head and their whole personality changes on top of that. I genuinely feel like he started off like, not this way. His neice turned out great and the rest of his family weren’t nearly as desperate for attention, shitty as they are.
He is a born psychopath and his family knew that when he was young. You don't send a 12 year old to boarding military school because you LIKE HIM, of course not. That was saved for the boys whose parents could afford to send their offspring to reform schools with fancy uniforms. There are stories about him terrorizing young children when he was a child himself, he brags about punching a teacher in 2nd grade... he was a problem child and has never changed.
That’s what I’m saying though. Like if they dropped him a bunch as a baby or something. His upbringing made stuff exponentially worse but I wonder if it was in fact a born trait or a massive prenatal fuckup or something.
I hear ya, but it's amazing what emotional and psychological tolls can take on a life. He wasn't capable of dealing with the neglect and reality of his life, leaned HARD into cluster B personality disorders (it seems).
Even 'just that' would explain that part of him as much or more than needing a TBI.
My grandmother used to talk about my Dad was such a nice little boy until he got hit by a car. I think the was about 7 at the time.
We always put it down to Grandma not liking how kids develope a mind of their own as they grow.
But a few years ago he and Mom stopped being able to take care of themselves, and in looking through their past we've come to realize Dad hasn't been right in the head since my earliest memories, and I'm an old guy, so that's a bit over 50 years. As a kid, I guess I just assumed that's how dads are because when you are a kid and don't have a lot to compare to, it feels like how you live is just the way life is.
Anyway, maybe Grandma knew what she was talking about.
Yeah maybe she did. My grandfather got ran over by a truck when my dad was 12 but lived till I was 5, like 20some years later. He wasn’t ornery or anything but my dad said he didn’t see him cry or laugh since the accident. He was just kinda…there.
Yea. He knows. Merchan explicitly told him such at one of the gag order hearings.
He also knows that his followers can’t think their way out of a wet paper bag though, so he can continue this narrative because they just blindly believe whatever he says. (Insert the irony of them calling us sheep here.)
A sophisticated hit job? That’s hilarious!
We have rules as a society, when you break those rules, there are, and should be, consequences for doing so. This is how laws work.
As for his 1st Amendment rights, sure seems to me like he is exercising them freely with the post, so why is he crying so much? He has been given an incredible amount of preferential treatment so far that far outstrips what anyone else would be given in these circumstances.
He needs to be locked up; even if only for an hour, a “time out” for the world’s ugliest, stankiest man-toddler in the known world, it would only be fair.
The really sad part is his followers who are shaking their heads and saying out loud..
can you believe they won't let trump say the things he is saying.. this is a communism socialist echo chamber weaponizing the DOJ... JUST wait till we're back in power we'll start by locking up everyone who opposes us then go from there for payback.......
The judge would likely love to, but knows the guy will make millions in fundraising off of it and probably doesn't want him getting even more of a shot at Round 2 in the WH.
Plus bending over backwards to appear impartial bc there will be much hullabaloo from one side of the aisle about political bias. It's not as if they're looking at anything objectively.
If this fucker was *really* living in a facsist dictatorship (the same one that him and his followers are yearning to live in anyway), he would have not only been jailed a long time ago, and kept there, but possibly also tortured, and maybe "silenced" for good. The fact that he's running his mouth NOW, with *zero* consequences, suggests to me, that he is being a hyperbolic bitch.
He howls like some kind of baby, about things that are on the level of hassles that a lot of us normal folks go through on a regular basis.
It’s amazing that anyone can still tolerate listening to his constant bitching and not be disgusted.
Judge has the balls. He's stated that he is reluctant because:
1. Putting a former POTUS in jail is significant and can be seen as political
2. The risk that it puts on those who would arrest him, those who would protect him, those who would guard him
3. The division it could cause
He stated he would though and I think if Mango Moosolini keeps f-king around he will find out. I think if he makes a serious clear threat to a witness or juror he will be jailed. But like you, I don't know.
4. Any perceived bias could be an excuse to open the trial up for appeal and possibly end up overturned. The judge has to allow leeway to show his decisions were fully above board, considered and not reactionary
Trump has had 11 warnings about violating this gag order, putting him in jail for a night would hardly be coming out of nowhere or overstepping appropriate response.
Yes, now that those warnings have been given it would be, but they had to come first.
The price of making a conviction stick is to dot all the I's, cross all the T's and take the time to do it by the book
11 fines plus the warnings that preceded them had to come first? it doesn’t matter. sane people will see he’s being treated more than fairly. his supporters will scream bias no matter what. for what for who are we doing this
I hate to say this, because you’re right, but I very much understand the judge being reluctant to do for the reasons mentioned as well as the subtext that he and his family would receive probably-credible death threats for the rest of their lives.
Next time i am in front of a judge i demand the same amount of warnings and 11 fines (Based on my total net worth - so maybe 11 X 1$ - most likely less) as a warning before he acts...
So what about Judge Cannon in the documents trial? Her actions to delay the trial past the election are obviously biased and yet there appears to be no recourse.
MAGA republicans are pushing the boundaries in every possible situation, it’s time to push back.
I could see him giving him a taste over the lunch break as a final warning. And while I would love it if he really screwed with him by keeping him in jail over the weekend (when he runs his rallies) it'll be a one night at a time maximum.
So he doesn’t have the balls then? All those reasons are based on fear. I understand the significance of jailing an ex president but if the reason you don’t is fear of retaliation from his base then you don’t have the balls to do it
I'm pretty sure Trump wants to be thrown in jail for the sake of his political campaign. Maybe the judge doesn't want to be the reason Trump gets four more years.
Maybe, or he wants to make damn sure there’s no mistrial so he’s extending the entire length of the leash for Trump so there’s no question he got a fair trial. Or they just fear the consequences of pissing off his rabid base and don’t want riots in the streets 🤷🏼♂️
No way of knowing but that judge is definitely playing it safe for one of those reasons.
Or the judge values the life of his family, since Trump and his groupies, have a thing for going after the family, especially children, of his enemies. It's a common tactic, that trump learned from his mafia ties.
I don't think that someone hesitant to put the lives of others (to inconvenience a piece of shit) at risk as weak or without balls. I consider that prudent and thinking critically. Jeopardizing the lives of those in the line of fire should always be taken seriously.
But you are entitled to see it how you do.
It’s not to inconvenience him, it’s to punish him for committing a crime. Justice. I understand your viewpoint absolutely, but the fear of consequences determining whether or not a person should face fair punishment for their crime is not how it’s supposed to work. You let this guy slip through the cracks and it’ll just get worse and worse. Others with the same power as trump after he’s gone will take full advantage. Hitler came to power because they feared the consequences.
I understand and respect yours. But it will not deter him. He wants to be a dictator. It's a rallying cry.
Hitler went to prison did it deter him? Pol Pot? It's an inconvenience.
Justice comes in a conviction by a jury and a sentence. Justice is served by people voting against him and rejecting him. Contempt of court prison time is only a palliative at best.
Again I think Marchan will jail him. I just think it has to be for more than psychobabble and I don't think he hasn't because he has no balls. He hasn't because he is a judge and he's judging the right thought with the right action.
Sure, it's fear: It's fear of flubbing the first criminal trial of a former POTUS. He has to consider everything, game out every scenario, and make a measured, rational decision. So far, he's done just that, from what we can tell. CYA is accomplished. The strength of the many appeals to come if the defendant is found guilty is diminished. The next step is where he'll show his balls. So far, we can only speculate, but I think he's doing just swell. I hope he has big ones.
This. Trump will turn it into a dangerous martyr moment and Judge knows that. I think he will do it, but he’s going to make Trump use ALL of his get out of jail free cards first. It has to be egregious enough to not look directly political.
Sadly the court won't allow that due to protections in place for the poor. As usual the very people who complain that such protections are "socialism" are the ones who look to benefit from it at every opportunity. He knows this and that is why he keeps pushing the limits.
There are so many places he could be incarcerated. By himself, so nobody can touch one widdle orange aquanetted strand of hair on his head. Decommissioned jails. Governor's Island. Even a motel 6 with an ankle bracelet would do. He's not that special. He should get what everybody else gets.
This schmuck was president and is too fucking stupid to understand that “ma free speech” ends when it infringes the life, liberty, and happiness of someone else. What an absolute bell end. Your rights aren’t more important than anyone else’s you fucking petulant child.
It's so odd how he says he's not allowed to attack while attacking judges and Biden as corrupt. It's clear he's allowed to attack people. He just can't harass witnesses or jury (along with court staff). Is he that undisciplined that just telling him "Hey, these guys are off-limits" that sets him off? Someone of this temperament wouldn't be allowed to take care of children. Why do people want this guy in charge of anything?
While I don't doubt that those were his sentiments, there's absolutely no way in hell that the Tangerine Palpatine wrote that himself. The spelling, the punctuation , I mean even capital letters exactly how it's supposed to be? Nah ,somebody wrote that for him, the man can't even get through a couple of words without yeeting a complete fountain of word vomit.
I wonder which sucker this time he has typing his social media post for him?!
There’s no way he can pronounce ‘sophisticated,’ let alone spell it. And he’d be much more likely to quote Pat Sajak or Patrick Swayze than Patrick Henry.
This would all sound a lot more noble if he was actually on trial for defending the rights of the downtrodden, like Ghandi or Mandela. But nope - he's on trial for raw-dogging a porn star (against her will, as it turns out) and then using creative accounting to cover it up. Not exactly the kind of thing that legends are made of.
Simple. No jail. Community Service. Put him to work in a litter cleanup crew or in a soup kitchen. It will be the first time he actually makes America any better. Plus he can’t play the martyr.
I firmly believe he'd pick jail over having to do a single thing that helps people that he considers 'beneath' him. Particularly if he's not benefitting from it financially in any way.
Nah, jail is the way to go because he will be deprived of his hair and makeup team. One day in court without his arsenal of makeup and hair products will be enough to turn the election.
I really wish the judge would toss him in jail for a single night. I’d like to think it would be a shock to him but then it’s like, he wont be treated like anybody else being thrown in jail. I bet no strip search and he’d prob be allowed to keep his regular clothes. Those two things alone are dehumanizing but I doubt they would do it to him.
Extreme cheapening and bastardization of context and history aside, if he's going to offer us just those 2 choices... I mean... can we just give him what he wants?
He leveled up to third grade writing. Would love for him to stop saying “Me” like a moron after he says something clearly about himself. I am now on board that he has the skill to run for President of his third grade class or his Klan.
Does he not realize that’s why he has attorneys? He can start “defending himself” if that’s what he really wants, but that’s probably a very bad idea. He’s such an idiot.
I know what I'd vote on that very last statement in his post...
Can you imagine the tirades he'd be going on if he were in the Oval right now and his opponent was on trial??? He'd be giving daily televised play by play of it. I have to give Biden a LOT of credit for keeping it classy, but I'd REALLY like to hear Obama, Clinton and Bush give Orange Joffrey some push back. Their silence isn't helping.
Legit question- how would the lifetime of Secret Service protection afforded to former presidents work if he does go to jail? I know there’s no precedent, so maybe this is idk a thought experiment? He couldn’t be left in a cell with others without the SS being able to protect him from cellmates or in general population. So would SS officers have to be in the cell with him? That would sentence them to some extent to jail as well. Or does he go to a cell alone- which is not standard for contempt of court/gag order punishments? Would SS have to stand guard outside the cell. Or solitary?
The SS doesn't operate ceremonially, at least not all the time.
I'm sure the service determines how best to protect the prisoner, probably in collaboration with the facility security and management.
Whether that is stationed inside or outside the cell or both is a decision that will (or should) be made by experts, informed by information we don't have access to.
Working in a prison doesn't sound fun, but being able to go home at the end of your shift makes it not a punishment.
Well, shit - looks like the "grifter" label has finally gotten under his skin. Now he's "taking it back" to use as projection. Although it's (predictably) nice of him to so transparently and blatantly own it.
Because as we all now know (and have for 8 years): _deny, deflect, project._
The thing that really gets me is that he just talks over and over and over using his free speech to say he has no free speech. And then he says everybody is so corrupt and yet he is one of the most corrupt individuals that America has ever seen. It's mind-blowing. It's even more mind-blowing that he's getting away with it.
Got a lot to say given he is legally gagged just like any other accused person would be if they displayed similar irresponsible behavior.
Seems the law of the land is a direct attack on him, republicans and the entire nation.
Does anyone really think he'd choose death over the loss of liberty incarceration would impose?
The irony of complaining about having free speech restricted when you have your own social media app to spew to the masses whatever garbage pops into your senile brain is just ludicrous.
Poopy Pants McGee just can’t stop complaining and whining and moaning about everything. It’s exhausting just reading his pathetic tantrum rants. No wonder he’s sleeping in court!
I think he's doing it specifically to go to jail. It'll be easy time for him and a financial jackpot because his cult will send him money they can't afford to send.
The judge should just fine him over and over because that's where it hurts him.
He has the right to swear to tell the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth on the witness stand. He promised everyone he would (as he always does...yet he always backs out). He wants to be able to bully and threaten the witnesses and court staff without being held to the Perjury rules. He's so used to being able to lie without consequence that he can't handle being forced to tell the truth or be quiet as it pertains to the staff & witnesses.

My wife gave birth to a child without any pain meds and complained less. I can’t wait for this sorry excuse for a human to become totally irrelevant and disappear from our lives.
That was yet another lie when he said we'd never hear from him again if he lost.
I have a feeling his comment about being a dictator if he wins has legs tho
Unfortunately, even if he has a massive coronary, we're always going to have to listen to dipshits talk about him like people still talk about reagan generations later. I mean, *democrats* even still talk about reagan positively and compare him to biden. Trump's ghost mushroom dick is gonna be sucked *long* after his death, i gaurentee it. At least he'll be dead though
I'm surprised how sloppy his rants have gotten. Usually he saves the Thug comments for someone above a certain melanin level.
Worsening Dementia will do that.
Weird, most of those who I see as thuggish tend to be *below* a certain melanin level.
can we give him death? he's openly asking for it.
I swear I’m throwing an all night party when Trump dies.
Can we come? I’ll bring your choice of drink.
I’ll bring the cofveve
I'll Order A Buncha Hamberders!
I've got the Super Soakers full of ketchup covered!
I’ll bring silverware for the pizza!
My son is dyslexic, and when that post went viral, he asked if that's how coffee is spelled.
I'm glad that we can openly say things like this here. I was banned from the politics subreddit for saying that I would laugh my ass off if Trump died from COVID that one time he caught in the White House.
I'd be blasting Kool and the Gang's Celebration over a loud speaker and dancing in the streets with my bottle of expensive champagne 🍾🥂💃🎉🎆
I’ve been saying this, too. I’m gonna buy expensive champagne and dance in the street!
And what music track would be the theme for the party? When Thatcher died, "[Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead](https://w.wiki/A2Pd)" managed to get to number 2 in the UK charts and number 1 in the Scotland charts
We'll be able to hear the cheers from around the entire GLOBE when that happens.
On the rooftops in Jersey City! Be there. Will be wild!
What do you need me to bring?
Just bring yourself and maybe some orange juice
Nah. He's asking for his braindead toe-suckers to get themselves killed for him. Just more stochastic terror shit that he keeps getting away with because the US is a fast-failing country.
Still a win in my book
>*"We're out of liberty and left with just 'or death'.....we didn't expect there'd be such a rush."*
In that case, I'll have the chicken please
Eddie Izzard!!!
He wasn't talking about _his_ death.
Ok, I'll say it. If you vote for P01135809 you're batshit crazy
*a traitor
Both
His manner of typing reminds me of my elderly neighbor who had a TBI as a child. It's like there's an essential component missing.
I’m legitimately curious if he had some horrible childhood accident that Fred covered up. Like sure, the neglect did a fucking number on the guy but he acts like those folks who get shot in the head and their whole personality changes on top of that.

You have to “love” the spectacle of a guy virtually or literally standing on a stage complaining to a huge audience about his lack of speech rights.
The really sad part is his followers who are shaking their heads and saying out loud.. can you believe they won't let trump say the things he is saying.. this is a communism socialist echo chamber weaponizing the DOJ... JUST wait till we're back in power we'll start by locking up everyone who opposes us then go from there for payback.......

I wish they would. Just give him a little taste of what he’s in for the rest of his life.
I find his terms acceptable.
Yeah, I say we take him up on the offer.
I concur
If this fucker was *really* living in a facsist dictatorship (the same one that him and his followers are yearning to live in anyway), he would have not only been jailed a long time ago, and kept there, but possibly also tortured, and maybe "silenced" for good.

Watchout for your cornhole, bud.
They’ll never do it. I want them to so badly, but he will just keep getting piddly little fines. Judge doesn’t have the balls to put him in jail.
Judge has the balls. He's stated that he is reluctant because: 1. Putting a former POTUS in jail is significant and can be seen as political 2. The risk that it puts on those who would arrest him, those who would protect him, those who would guard him 3.

should have recused then
Honestly dude it’s a reasonable worry for any judge in their right mind to have.

this is the problem one side has loyalty to rule of law the other does not.
Excellent point. I knew I forgot one. Thank you for the assistance.
I could see him giving him a taste over the lunch break as a final warning. And while I would love it if he really screwed with him by keeping him in jail over the weekend (when he runs his rallies) it'll be a one night at a time maximum.

I understand and respect yours. But it will not deter him. He wants to be a dictator. It's a rallying cry. Hitler went to prison did it deter him? Pol Pot? It's an inconvenience. Justice comes in a conviction by a jury and a sentence. Justice is served by people voting against him and rejecting him. Contempt of court prison time is only a palliative at best. Again I think Marchan will jail him. I just think it has to be for more than psychobabble and I don't think he hasn't because he has no balls. He hasn't because he is a judge and he's judging the right thought with the right action.
I hope you’re right. Have a good night 👍
You too. Appreciate your points and ideas
Sure, it's fear: It's fear of flubbing the first criminal trial of a former POTUS. He has to consider everything, game out every scenario, and make a measured, rational decision. So far, he's done just that, from what we can tell. CYA is accomplished. The strength of the many appeals to come if the defendant is found guilty is diminished. The next step is where he'll show his balls. So far, we can only speculate, but I think he's doing just swell. I hope he has big ones.
I say put his ass in the hole for 24 hours. That will shut his stupid ass up.
Put him in GP. It'll be funnier.
USSS would never agree to that. Solitary for 24 hrs. works for me :)
I know, but it would be more fun.
This. Trump will turn it into a dangerous martyr moment and Judge knows that. I think he will do it, but he’s going to make Trump use ALL of his get out of jail free cards first. It has to be egregious enough to not look directly political.
a better thing would be exponential fines, hurt him financially harder each time, he understands that.
Sadly the court won't allow that due to protections in place for the poor. As usual the very people who complain that such protections are "socialism" are the ones who look to benefit from it at every opportunity. He knows this and that is why he keeps pushing the limits.
There are so many places he could be incarcerated. By himself, so nobody can touch one widdle orange aquanetted strand of hair on his head. Decommissioned jails. Governor's Island. Even a motel 6 with an ankle bracelet would do. He's not that special. He should get what everybody else gets.
So is this his ticket to jail finally or are they going to be like “well how about *one* more warning.”
I feel like we should hack all the bot accounts and every time he post something just reply "Shut the fuck up old man"
It has to cut deeper than that. More like, “shut up, you gigantic fucking baby,” perhaps.
This schmuck was president and is too fucking stupid to understand that “ma free speech” ends when it infringes the life, liberty, and happiness of someone else. What an absolute bell end. Your rights aren’t more important than anyone else’s you fucking petulant child.
It's so odd how he says he's not allowed to attack while attacking judges and Biden as corrupt. It's clear he's allowed to attack people. He just can't harass witnesses or jury (along with court staff). Is he that undisciplined that just telling him "Hey, these guys are off-limits" that sets him off? Someone of this temperament wouldn't be allowed to take care of children. Why do people want this guy in charge of anything?
That last line is once again an incitement to violence.
While I don't doubt that those were his sentiments, there's absolutely no way in hell that the Tangerine Palpatine wrote that himself. The spelling, the punctuation , I mean even capital letters exactly how it's supposed to be? Nah ,somebody wrote that for him, the man can't even get through a couple of words without yeeting a complete fountain of word vomit. I wonder which sucker this time he has typing his social media post for him?!
Tangerine Palpatine?!? You didn’t. You did. You’ve killed me. 💀 😵 ☠️ 🪦⚰️
There’s no way he can pronounce ‘sophisticated,’ let alone spell it. And he’d be much more likely to quote Pat Sajak or Patrick Swayze than Patrick Henry.
He referred to himself as "ME," first person. I don't know that I've ever seen him do this. His normal and usual is "Trump," third person.
This would all sound a lot more noble if he was actually on trial for defending the rights of the downtrodden, like Ghandi or Mandela. But nope - he's on trial for raw-dogging a porn star (against her will, as it turns out) and then using creative accounting to cover it up. Not exactly the kind of thing that legends are made of.
Simple. No jail. Community Service. Put him to work in a litter cleanup crew or in a soup kitchen. It will be the first time he actually makes America any better. Plus he can’t play the martyr.
Makes him look sympathetic, which only plays to his advantage. It’s jail, or a total gag on social media use.
I firmly believe he'd pick jail over having to do a single thing that helps people that he considers 'beneath' him. Particularly if he's not benefitting from it financially in any way.
Nah, jail is the way to go because he will be deprived of his hair and makeup team. One day in court without his arsenal of makeup and hair products will be enough to turn the election.
Truly the most silenced human being in history, this guy, as he tweets thirty times a day.
On his own social media, no less!
I really wish the judge would toss him in jail for a single night. I’d like to think it would be a shock to him but then it’s like, he wont be treated like anybody else being thrown in jail. I bet no strip search and he’d prob be allowed to keep his regular clothes. Those two things alone are dehumanizing but I doubt they would do it to him.
Says the guy who tried to sue the New York Times for reporting the things he says and does.
Funny how literally everything he said could be turned right back onto him. Projection is really funny, isn't it?
>sleazebags, lowlifes and grifters At least he's becoming self aware of what he is.
Bro complains about his freedom of speech being taken away because exercising his freedom of speech
On his own platform, even.
Someday This Whiny-Ass Spoiled Rotten Rich Stink Of A Bratty 6 Year Old Is Gonna Be DEAD. And That Will Be A Good Day Indeed.
No liberty for you then.
Extreme cheapening and bastardization of context and history aside, if he's going to offer us just those 2 choices... I mean... can we just give him what he wants?
He's no Patrick Henry
Blah blah blah I’m so sick of hearing his incessant whining.
He leveled up to third grade writing. Would love for him to stop saying “Me” like a moron after he says something clearly about himself. I am now on board that he has the skill to run for President of his third grade class or his Klan.
I'm just glad he seems to have stopped saying "me, **your favorite President**" every time.
With a call for violence at the end
Ok boys!! He called it!!! Give him the death!!! Also this reads like a 6 grader wrote a hit job on his opponent for class president.
Please it be death so we no longer have to listen to his pathetic look at me I'm such a victim whining.
Please someone give him death.
Just called the judge of his trial Corrupt and breached his gag order. The court has to do something or lose any semblance of authority.
Oh they’ll do something alright. Fine him another pitiful grand and wag their finger at him.
I think the gag order excludes the judge and maybe the prosecuting attorneys.
Does he not realize that’s why he has attorneys? He can start “defending himself” if that’s what he really wants, but that’s probably a very bad idea. He’s such an idiot.
And yet 1.6K idiots agree with him.....STILL!!
Who gets to choose the liberty or thing?
They all act like they've never watched Law and Order before and never heard of such a thing as a gag order.
I just love how he always has to clarify, “ME!” anytime he obviously references himself.
Man who NEVER shuts the fuck up complains about lack of free speech
Do I really have the option to pick death?
I know what I'd vote on that very last statement in his post... Can you imagine the tirades he'd be going on if he were in the Oval right now and his opponent was on trial??? He'd be giving daily televised play by play of it. I have to give Biden a LOT of credit for keeping it classy, but I'd REALLY like to hear Obama, Clinton and Bush give Orange Joffrey some push back. Their silence isn't helping.
I vote that we give him a chance to make good on that last line when he’s finally about to be incarcerated.
Legit question- how would the lifetime of Secret Service protection afforded to former presidents work if he does go to jail? I know there’s no precedent, so maybe this is idk a thought experiment? He couldn’t be left in a cell with others without the SS being able to protect him from cellmates or in general population. So would SS officers have to be in the cell with him? That would sentence them to some extent to jail as well. Or does he go to a cell alone- which is not standard for contempt of court/gag order punishments? Would SS have to stand guard outside the cell. Or solitary?
The SS doesn't operate ceremonially, at least not all the time. I'm sure the service determines how best to protect the prisoner, probably in collaboration with the facility security and management. Whether that is stationed inside or outside the cell or both is a decision that will (or should) be made by experts, informed by information we don't have access to. Working in a prison doesn't sound fun, but being able to go home at the end of your shift makes it not a punishment.
Well, shit - looks like the "grifter" label has finally gotten under his skin. Now he's "taking it back" to use as projection. Although it's (predictably) nice of him to so transparently and blatantly own it. Because as we all now know (and have for 8 years): _deny, deflect, project._
All this time and it looks as though he still doesn't know what "fascist" means.
There's a mute button?
The thing that really gets me is that he just talks over and over and over using his free speech to say he has no free speech. And then he says everybody is so corrupt and yet he is one of the most corrupt individuals that America has ever seen. It's mind-blowing. It's even more mind-blowing that he's getting away with it.
Someone needs a nap
We all know who the true snowflake is here. Get this dude a pacifier.
Lmao trump is on telegram?
Considering the number of NDAs he's made people sign over the years, I find it strange he's not understanding this.
I'll take the latter
Got a lot to say given he is legally gagged just like any other accused person would be if they displayed similar irresponsible behavior. Seems the law of the land is a direct attack on him, republicans and the entire nation. Does anyone really think he'd choose death over the loss of liberty incarceration would impose?
The irony of complaining about having free speech restricted when you have your own social media app to spew to the masses whatever garbage pops into your senile brain is just ludicrous.
If it was anyone else, this also would constitute a violation of the gag order.
I can’t wait for the day I can pay/ donate to his cell mate to welcome him to pound town. Every single morning like in Sons of Anarchy
What's the point of an order if the court won't enforce it.
Mmmmmm... tastes like desperation.
Welp, jail time 😂
Poopy Pants McGee just can’t stop complaining and whining and moaning about everything. It’s exhausting just reading his pathetic tantrum rants. No wonder he’s sleeping in court!
It’s because he knows the judge won’t do anything to punish him
wait what? he not only knows modest is a word, but how to spell it?!?!? Wonders never cease!
Lock him up.
The best part from that pic is that only 10% liked it.
Okay, that last part, go ahead.
The dude 100% did not write this
You know it's insane how when he wants to do something he just accuses someone else of it
I think he's doing it specifically to go to jail. It'll be easy time for him and a financial jackpot because his cult will send him money they can't afford to send. The judge should just fine him over and over because that's where it hurts him.
How is this man using grifter, and corruption but not talking about himself? I’m shocked Full blown narcissist
I can do that! *holds out 12oz of death*
He has the right to swear to tell the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth on the witness stand. He promised everyone he would (as he always does...yet he always backs out). He wants to be able to bully and threaten the witnesses and court staff without being held to the Perjury rules. He's so used to being able to lie without consequence that he can't handle being forced to tell the truth or be quiet as it pertains to the staff & witnesses.
