Is Trump seriously taking the witness stand tomorrow?
he can’t speak without lying. not even one sentence. Do his attorneys hate him?
I thought that Dumdum Donald and the kiddies were all being forced to testify by subpoenas. Am I misremembering? I found a WSJ article from Feb 2022 stating Donald and Jr and Eric were subpoenaed in this case...
Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump Jr. must also testify as part of the New York attorney general’s investigation into the former president and his company over the valuation of assets to obtain loans, insurance coverage and tax d...
I often refer to former presidents as "President So-and-so" e.g. President Carter, President Clinton. Similarly, I'll call a retired MD "doctor," even though s/he's not medicining anymore.
Proper former title is now 'court-confirmed rapist and fraudster Dumdum Donald'.

Makes sense because they are all material witnesses with important information in the civil case. They are not defendants (yet) in the criminal trial about the fraud.
I’ve always been puzzled a bit how a human being can lie relentlessly with absolutely no shame. And then get caught in a lie and still not pivot nor have shame like normal people would. Instead, keep lying over and over without concern at all that everyone knows they are lying.
I think today I have my answer. Guys like George Santos and Trump feel it is 100% part of the job of being a politician. To them it’s like asking a soap opera actor why he acts. Well it’s in the job description. They believe they have a ticket to lie at all times.
“I wasn’t successful at obstructing Justice” or “there was no underlying crime to obstruct” or “I paid the loans back”. All in the same vein.
Banks took undue risk due to his fraud and lying. And they were deprived millions of dollars in interest that were due to them if they were given non-fraudlent information. And Donnie violated NY Business regulations that he agreed to abide by.
Political witch hunt? Nope. A mobbed up crime family that believed laws don't apply to them. It runs in their genes.

Plus an unknown but real number of people were DENIED loans from the banks because the money went to Trump.

It’s not that similar. And people keep calling him President to make a point, a pathetic point. Bad losers, just like him.
The prosecution filed a really good response brief to Trump's motion to dismiss on various grounds. The law seems to favor the prosecution here, and Trump is really just disputing facts in the Indictment which is not a way to get a case dismissed.
In the fraud civil case today, Donald's lawyer Habba got all indignant and fake outraged that Judge Engoron didn't let Donald speechify when he was getting cross examined. She could have drawn all that out of Donald when it was her turn, but she didn't ask Donald anything. Impressive lying by Habba, she should get a job on a soap opera.
Here's another luridly fascinating thing about Trump that this little performance of his highlights:
He believes his ability to get away with doing whatever he wants in his financial dealings makes him an alpha, and that those who can't or won't intervene to stop him are weak and stupid by comparison (e.g. remember what he said to H. Clinton in response to accusations of tax evasion-- "That just makes me smart."). He clearly doesn't respect anyone who simply lets him do what he wants. Yet, when someone finally intervenes to stop him, he's shocked and totally indignant. Trump all but dares people to challenge him, then appears shocked when someone actually does!
You could say this applies to his politics, too, except that in that arena I think he actually believes a lot of the crap he says (in part because many of his supporters clearly do). This has never been the case wrt to his money. He knows he's a cheat and con man, and he knows others know it too. He just thinks that's how the game is played, and that he's winning it.
This and not the criminal cases is the one that will undo him psychologically.

NY AG James made a statement today outside the court that they had evidence that Ivanka was still involved with Trump company. Oopsie Ivanka I guess when the criminal charges come down, you will be one of the defendants. "You cannot hide from the truth."
(btw, is there a thread dedicated to the NY fraud lawsuit? Let's bring it back if there is.)

The judge in the Bathroom Case revised a lot of pre-trial deadlines and also left open the issue of moving the trial date. The media is reporting that she refused to move the trial date, but I think it's clear that she left that issue open and that the new pre-trial dates would make that trial date impossible. It's going to be moved next year, probably until after the election.
Pretty lame, Milhouse. We are 3 days into this stuff, and that's the best thing you could find on Twitter? Come on, man.
Oh, so you can't argue the facts? We all know the laptop is Hunter's.
Trump's plumber has flipped! It is total fvcking chaos down at the Mar-Bago compound right now. They are checking all the bathrooms. If this plumber takes the witness stand, it is all over for Trump, Inc. He knows everything that went down the tubes.

The thing about Trump is that he can’t speak more than a few sentences without slandering or disparaging others. It happens whenever he talks about anyone or anything.
so when people claim Trump has a complex strategy that he is performing I think they are over thinking it. Trump has the self control impulses of a child.
He is a nightmare client. That is one of the reasons that very few big firms will take him on as a client. The other is that he doesn't want to pay his attorneys.

Say what you will, I am voting for him and Letitia James will be in jail by 2025. , I This trial is total BS. The real trial is January 6th. This should have never been brought to trial. All this trial does is slow Trump's campaign down and steal money from him. Lets get the Smith trial underway and clear the decks for Trump's 2024 victory.
