Since Bill Barr is a witness against Trump in the J6 case, this new post violates his gag order in DC. pic.twitter.com/9q4MwM0fNP

His hair was perfect
xpost ha ha

I saw Don Junior walking with the caine

What's it all about, Alfie

Trump: Well, that's one I haven't heard before.

Google: Trump fourth grade level About 9,950,000 results (0.37 seconds)

Tbh, I'm surprised we don't see this from any of them more often, but it's still funny:

Trump gets the name of the city he’s in wrong, forcing someone on stage to apparently whisper in his ear where he actually is: “You’re in Sioux City, Mr. President” pic.twitter.com/c0dEQbAElg

“Cleveland! Good morning!”

O RLY

“ With droopy eyelids and mouth agape, Mr. Trump stammers and mumbles. He squints. His arms flap. He shuffles his feet and wanders laggardly across the stage. A burst of laughter and applause erupts from the crowd as he feigns confusion by turning and pointing to invisible supporters, as if he does not realize his back is to them.

But his recent campaign events have also featured less deliberate stumbles. Mr. Trump has had a string of unforced gaffes, garble and general disjointedness that go beyond his usual discursive nature, and that his Republican rivals are pointing to as signs of his declining performance.”

lol discursive is a polite way to describe it I guess

'increasingly incoherent' is the new 'increasingly isolated'

he's a month away from the neck brace and wheelchair in court. "I'm sorry, your honor, my client is too incapacitated to participate any further."

His usual repulsive nature

That's about the only time the NYT has run the Trump version of the is-Joe-Biden-too-old? piece.

it sort of passed me by that "the adult children of Trump" isn't some media commentary joke, it's actually how the court describes them in discovery documents.. lol

"Trump's next of kin" sounds better imho

spawn maybe?

I think that's meant in the "reading of the will" sense

They mean Trump’s adult children because he still has one who is not an adult yet.

^^ suzy coming in with the facts.

p.s. I initially read that as "still has one who is not an adult pet"

as someone who has done minor groundworks and actually mixed and poured concrete as part of my previous job - albeit quite badly as I'm not a builder. I'm just sniggering to myself at this dense adult child brat of his, testifying in court under oath that "I just pour concrete". It's funny because I'm struggling to imagine him pouring a glass of water without fucking it up.

like trying to get out of jury duty lol

“Ms Trump, who resides in Florida with her three minor children, will suffer undue hardship if a stay is denied and she is required to testify at trial in New York in the middle of a school week, in a case she has already been dismissed from, before her appeal is heard,” her lawyers said in a legal filing on Thursday.

But in an expedited ruling on Thursday night, the appeals court offered a curt, 11-word response.

“Application for interim stay pending decision on the motion is denied,” the judges wrote.

beautifully concise response

Must have been tough for her lawyers to write that motion with a straight face

“Yours in service”

jared can be mommy for a day or two

Pretty sure DJT will motion that he is suffering an undue hardship as his testimony comes in the middle of King Kong Week on the Gorilla Channel.

This whole thing is such a joke and his business seemingly ran the the emperor's new clothes, it makes me question the entire validity of the US economy as it seems like any moron with enough money can just get lawyers to make any stupidity go away.

As long as you don't get into Theranos or Enron or FTX total fuckery, you don't end up in REAL trouble.

Look at a dude like Michael Milken for all the BS he did, dude is still in business doing his thing.

All this and you can get choked out on the street for selling single smokes in America.

are you insulting the american dream

LOL I have an old fam friend who’s a total Trumper, married a very rich person and they live practically next door to Trump in NJ and she just posted a pic on instagram a few days ago and I was like “is she posting a pic of herself with Michael Mullen?!?!” Yes she was.

now that Meadows has disavowed the great lie his book publisher is suing him for leaving them with a lot of unwanted pulpers all about the great lie.

i love to see it

They could market it as metafiction

They could market it as metafiction

The second post is actually completely different from the first due to context.

Do you think you could market it as metafiction?

60 Minutes is doing a segment on me tonight, after an extensive interview I gave them a couple of weeks ago. Have no idea what the final produced version will be like, but wanted to let friends know to watch if you're interested. https://t.co/bEkmLdu0zu

He seems confident his dodgy rationalizations will protect him from legal jeopardy.

Another striking similarity with the Nazi party is how you can look at nearly all of these goons and be like, "THIS guy thinks he's part of a "master race"?"

I think that guy's face melted at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Lawyer’s nightmare scenario: When Trump takes the witness stand today, he needs to explain fraud allegations without committing perjury or invoke 5th Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, which allows judge, in this civil case, to infer the worst

Saw some suggestion that baiting the judge into losing his temper and overreacting to Trump bullshit is an actual possible Trump strategy and not just, like, rationalizing what may happen regardless.

Yes, read a Rolling Stone feature quoting Dershowitz saying it could be a tactic to goad the judge into overreacting and thus strengthening post-verdict appeal as Trump winning the case in the courtroom is virtually impossible.

yah getting to be prez again is worth perjury and courtroom incitement-- in the same way paris was worth a mass.

i was gonna type "re-election is worth..." but decided he doesn't need actual re-election, since if he's on the ballot he'll just claim it anyhow.

Judge Engoron to Trump: "Please, just answer the questions, no speeches."

Judge added: "Some of your answers have not been responsive to the question."

Always worth a reminder: he has already been found guilty, this is about damages/penalty, and iirc, the/this judge gets to decide them.

Going great!

Engoron: "I beseech you to control him, if you can."

The judge warns Kise that if he will control Trump if the lawyer doesn't.
