The former president fired off a series of potentially defamatory statements as he arrived in court
As he arrived at a federal courthouse in lower Manhattan, Donald Trump’s Truth Social account released an avalanche of posts attacking E Jean Carroll, who is suing the former president for defamation.
A jury in New York City will determine what damages he owes Ms Carroll, whom Mr Trump defamed by repeatedly calling her a liar and denying that he sexually assaulted her.
It’s the second trial stemming from defamation claims brought by Ms Caroll, and a jury already found him civilly responsible for sexually abusing her in the 1990s. He continues to claim that he never met her and has repeatedly mocked and ridiculed Ms Carroll in the wake of that verdict.
He lost another 2 lawyers. Is there a number out there, how many lawyers he had that were withdrawing? Many withdrawing only days/ a day before a trial, which a lawyer only ever does if they are deadly ill or their client is so unhinged that they can not risk being with them in a court room.
At this point i don’t understand how he gets lawyers in the first place. Ok so maybe a few of them are crazy republicans, makes sense, but he has a wellnearned reputation for not paying his attorneys and I would think that would be enough to keep them from signing up in the first place.
Truth social, gab, parler, minds, it’s all bots posting, they won’t interact even if you disagree with them
He really doesn’t know when to shut up, hopefully that will be his undoing.

Yes, Donkey, you do have the right to remain silent.
What you lack is the capability…
The more he opens his mouth, the more his rabid fans adore him.
So during a trial to decide damage amounts for previously made defamatory statements, you launch into a bunch of new defamatory statements?
Bold move cotton, we’ll see how it plays out.
She can do this all decade long you stupid orange rapist. 5 Million. 20 Million. 100 Million. 300 Million. Keep it coming you idiot fuck.
Flood the zone.
He’s campaigning. A large part of the country love this sort of behaviour and if it costs him a few mill well then donations will take care of that.
Honestly it should cost him a fucking contempt charge and some time in jail
It would be amazing if the jury said jail time would be more effective than another monetary settlement. Fingers crossed.
Money is the only thing he cares about. Keep the fines going up. We can call it the Trumping Point: the amount of money required to make a billionaire understand consequences. Then future fines to other billionaires can just start there.
For real though, imagine the orange apoplexy if he lost all his wealth.
Honestly, this is the entire point of fines though. We need a system where fines are determined by your tax bracket or something, it shouldn’t be “ahh I can do whatever I want until the fines get close to $X million” it should be an immediate “oh i fucked up”
Otherwise, fines are just the cost of doing business.
And a huge chunk of the country somehow goes, “Yep, just what I’m looking for in November.”
A huge chunk of the country just down plays everything.
“OH, if it’s really so bad why haven’t I heard about it.” I just told you mf’r.
“Trump is the victim in all this.” Get fucked. In no way has that silver spoon orange cum rag ever been a victim in his life. We are talking about the person that is suppose to represent and lead umpteen million Americans and you’re treating him with kid gloves.
“Innocent until proven guilty.” He was proven guilty.
“It’s only civil court, it’s not criminal.” Hold still while I shove this goalpost up your ass.
Hahaha boy I love this. On the hook for 10, who knows where it ends.
