"I call for help from the highest courts": Trump cries out in fear of “Trump-hating" prosecutor ( www.salon.com )

Donald Trump has been on a prolific Truth Social tear, calling for the execution of a top US military general, vowing revenge on NBC Networks and demanding that Republican leaders take action against automatic voter registration to protect him from once again losing the popular vote. All of that was over the weekend. On Monday, the former picked up apace with attacks on New York Attorney General Letitia James.

“I have been unfairly sued by the Trump Hating Democrat Attorney General of New York State, Letitia James,” he cried on his social media site.

James’ office has claimed that Trump has represented his worth as being $2.2 billion greater than it really is. Trump called that a “false fact.”

He then called the judge in the case a “Trump Hater” and cried out for help.

“It is very unfair, and I call for help from the highest Courts in New York State, or the Federal System, to intercede.”

I. DECLARE. BAANKRUPTCY!!!

Drusas ,

I don't know how this is legal in any way.

michaelrose ,

What do you think is illegal?

Drusas ,

I think it is legal. I'm suggesting that I think something in here should not be. Related to obstruction of justice, trying to tamper with his ongoing cases, I'm not sure what it would be since it is legal as things are now. It just doesn't seem right to be able to influence justice due to popularity.

You were supposed to submit paperwork to request a jury. You did not submit that paperwork, so you do not get a jury. You have no one to blame for any of this except yourself.

AlecSadler ,

Hahaha, is this for real? That’s fucking hilarious.

Floon ,

Yes. His lawyer Alina Habba missed the filing deadline, so he didn’t get a jury.

The people he’s talking to don’t know that and wouldn’t care about it either way. Trump’s word is gospel to a terrifyingly large portion of society

It’s funny how this “large portion of society” exists on the elder end of a bloated global population and the opposite demographic isn’t filling the ranks behind them… Who knows? Maybe humanity in general will get smarter simply with the exodus of the hur-dur horde. 🤞🏽

It's another "Russia, if you're listening". He's trying to call in the favours he's owed by Barrett and Kavanaugh. Probably Alito and Thomas too, although he didn't handpick them.

I wonder if they're willing to let him rot now they already have what they want. I have no clue if Trump has any leverage left there.

They’re keeping up a veneer of impartiality until the correct fake cases get to them so they can legislate how they want to. Trump was just the means to stack the court, they have their own role to play and saving trump isn’t part of it.

What became of Trump?
To shreds you say?
And the Republic?
To shreds you say?

Cry some more snowflake.

This is hilarious. But also, he is probably gonna keep this shit up until someone gets killed. And then he’ll keep going, unless some judge somewhere has the stones to actually put a real leash on him.

Vode_An ,

The dingus who tazed his balls until he died at 1/6 probably counts as getting somebody killed. So yeah, he’s not going to stop.

Wait who did what?!

Won’t someone think of President Drink Bleach, whose lawyer accidentally checked the wrong box on the paperwork, resulting in it being a bench trial?

Bipta ,

Fake news. He only suggested:

““The disinfectant knocks it out in a minute. One minute,” he said. “Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside?”

...which is obviously much better...
