Donald Trump on Wednesday launched fresh vitriol against the judge and prosecuting attorney in his New York business fraud trial, carefully skirting a gag order imposed on him just a day prior.
Trump tried Tuesday to bully a court clerk, sharing false conspiracies about her as well as her personal information. Presiding Judge Arthur Engoron issued a gag order later that day prohibiting all parties involved in the case from publicly discussing court staff.
While Trump avoided mentioning court staff on Wednesday, he went all out with attacks against Engoron and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
“This is election interference. They made up a fake case, these fraudulent people,” Trump told reporters. “And the judge already knows what he’s gonna do. He’s a Democrat judge. In all fairness to him, he has no choice.… He’s run by the Democrats.”

He’s the biggest victim-player in the entire world. Sure is odd how his fans think he’s ultra-masculine just because he’s also an overconfident bully.

Oh damn cry-bully is so good
Yep. I’ve had a couple relationships with people like that. Most recently, a gf who acted exactly like that… she’d blame all of our problems on me, never take accountability, never acknowledge that her actions or behavior could influence me too, was thrilled to criticize me but if I said anything about her (even very fair things where I shared blame) she’d either change the topic to something irrelevant to criticize me, or clam up or leave and then blame me for finding the conversation frustrating. Expected me to do all the housework, then blamed me for not doing enough. Spent most of her time on social media, blamed me for her not getting work done, was obsessed with things like “221 people wished me happy birthday on facebook!”. Incredibly dysfunctional and infuriating after a while. Not like I’m an expert, but after watching 50 hours of NPD videos on YouTube she ticks all the boxes.
Nothing is ever their fault, they have never been wrong, and you are never good enough for them. Every story is either them being a badass or being a victim. Everything you do was to hurt them, you can’t just be tired you are being lazy. You can’t just want some alone time you are separating yourself from them.
Oh I didn’t know one of my siblings had a lemmy account
They also think his complete disregard and sexual misconduct towards women is super masculine
Usually mankind doesn’t give them a platform… but yeah of course there a lot of people who’s lives run on blaming others.
He’s the whiniest. People come up to him. Big, strong men with tears in their eyes. They say “Sir, you whine more than anyone else!”
“Sir, it is very unfair how they treat you!!”
“Yes, unfair, very unfair…”

Alex Jones pretty much pulled the same stunt and we all saw how well that played out for him
Kinda fine so far? As of a couple of weeks ago, he still hadn’t paid a dime to any of the Sandy Hook families because he declared bankruptcy. He’s still spending a bunch of money and still doing Info Wars. It’ll probably catch up to him eventually? I hope? https://apnews.com/article/alex-jones-sandy-hook-shooting-bankruptcy-34192bd7d89ed786f64580682f6ea89e
It’s wild how gentle the courts are with the rich and powerful doing absolutely abhorrent shit on massive scales
But find a joint roach on a poor person unfortunate enough to not have light skin, and they’re near instantly thrown into jail for years and years
I don’t know how anybody can not think that the justice system is broken
So first off, yes rich people have HUGE advantages in court. That being said, the clear difference here is that civil trials and criminal trials function very differently and on wildly different timetables.
It’s QUITE fast, generally speaking, to start a civil processing and much slower to actually see restitution, and the exact opposite is true for criminal cases.
Considering he openly admitted that he was going to hide his money in offshore accounts so the victims won’t get it, he’s still spouting conspiracy nonsense on infowars, and has maintained exactly the same lifestyle he had before, I’d say it went pretty well for him.
People severely overestimate the impact that these cases have had against people like Alex Jones and Steve Bannon. They may have had some bumps in the road, and a bunch of lawyers made a bunch of money. But in the end, these guys are still able to keep on keeping on.
This is what I keep telling people. If you lose in court and the effective outcome is nil, nothing really happened.
Meanwhile the rest of us aren’t treated like we are drugking mafia dons for missing a hundred dollars on our tax return or bring slightly over the limit. It’s fucking pathetic, they bully downwards.
Elon Musk kinda comes to mind, but Trump shits all over what Musk has done…

What a trainwreck of a man. He could have just let SpaceX do it’s thing and pretend he was the super tech genius behind it and be loved for life. In a way I am glad, him messing around with Twatter and Tesla keeps him distracted from breaking the one smart investment he ever made.
