I would make the argument that Trump and MAGAworld are violent, disorganised crime.

If smug bastard Jesse Watters was in Trump’s place I doubt he’d be smirking. I like to think Trump’s personal hell is a place populated by Amazon women who all look like E.Jean Carroll.

What joy and terror in equal measure it must be to be able to insult that piece of shit right to his hideous face in obeisance to voir dire. He NEEDS to know what normal people, people outside the MAGA-sphere, really think of him. I hope it stings.

President Klan Robe at least has his captive rightwing media human centipede going for him, so there is that.

LOL on the Phantom Zone reference.

Let's hope Merchan, in the hearing, is taking this shit seriously and can do some bench judgment. President Klan Robe can be put into administrative segregation; it's nice and secure, and ideally should keep him off his phone.

I kinda am curious if Watters can catch a case for jury tampering but it's a long shot. I guess we'll see what happens next week.

First, props for the Phantom Zone and Princess Leia references. When I think of TrumpCo, I think of Don Geiss’ GE board that consists of various unemployable family members and his hunting dogs.

Anyhow. Since Trump’s platform calls for retribution, I can see why jurors would be afraid. Trump needs to have his phone taken out of his cold little hands. Perhaps juror 2 needs to file a complaint of some sort against Fox.

It’s all a farce until a gag order is enforced. We can say all we want about this but, until a judge holds Trump accountable for misbehaving, it’s all a meaningless farce designed to keep us from burning the joint to the ground with all of them inside.

I’ll say it again: Nothing is ever going to happen to Donald Trump. He will be found not guilty and the government will be required to issue an apology and pay his legal fees. It’s a fucking farce.

So, what's the over/under on Merchan admonishing Trump with a stern glare and not much else?

I'd put it at about 90%. I hope I'm wrong.

He's been running a pretty tight ship. I think he's got a plan, involving not giving the defense any excuse for an appeal.

Seems many people, like Vance and the GMA crew today, don’t understand this IS a violent mob trial.

“He did end Wednesday on an upbeat fascist note. On his way out of the courtroom, New York’s finest showed him all the love.”

Correction: New York’s ‘finest’ are Letitia James and Alvin Bragg. New York cops are deadbeats. Ironically it is black people making America great again.

It has always been black people who have made American special. From music to medicine, they have invented almost everything that is extraordinary about us. Without black Americans, we're like a bowl of unsalted, unseasoned and unbuttered white rice.

This perversely makes me wish I had been one of the jury candidates. They would have dismissed me in a millisecond - but it'd be worth it to sit there and watch PAB's face, as they read out nine years' worth of all my nastiest and funniest tweets about him.

Jesse Waters and Fox need to be sued again. This time into oblivion.
