He can't keep his mouth shut to save his life. This is definitely not someone we need as our country's leader.
-
Falls asleep in court and could be held in contempt—this is the leader of the Republican Party and who they chose to represent themselves.
-
Calling the witnesses sleezbags? That’s like the pot calling the kettle black
-
If Trump cared about Baron then he wouldn’t be in this mess to begin with.
-
"it's unprecedented", "it's unprecedented", "it's unprecedented" NO. IT IS NOT. IT IS JUST ANOTHER FRAUDSTER BEING TRIED IN A COURT OF LAW.
-
What the press should do is NOT cover his little whiny speech after the trial is over for the day. You know he just wants the attention.
-
He gonna keep violating Gag orders until they prove to him that he can't.
-
The contempt charge is the real news. The voire dire (jury selection) was expected to take a week before the trial even began.
-
Your son is so special to you as was all those kids who were separated from their parents at the border. Does that ring a bell?
-
Trump didn't go to any of his children's high school graduations.
-
Trumps 'I CAN'T GET A FAIR TRIAL BECAUSE EVERYBODY HATES ME' defense is no ones fault but his own.
-
most intelligent criminals keep their mouth shut when in a trail
-
Please...hold this man accountable for something. He keeps getting away with this behavior. He acts like he's above the law...Well, is he???
-
Good! Now throw him in jail!
-
"Trump would not have to ask the judge for time off to go to his son's graduation if he had not been with Stormy Daniels and instead been at home with his four month old son." P.S. Trump has never attended any of his other children's high school graduations. OOOOuuuu that's gotta hurt!
-
They already have 6 jurors seated and 5 alternates. Working to get the other 6 seated today.
-
Hold his ass accountable.
-
No jurors because everyone can't stand the guy.
-
It is interesting how poor people can stand before a judge doing being defiant against a judge's orders and the judge just bangs the gavel and tells the magistrate to take the person back to the holding cell. I am not a Trump fan nor a cult follower, but I sort of like how he shows how tiered and what a joke the criminal system is.
-
Why is it up to the DA to ask the judge to enforce the judge's order ?
