Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

I imagine some of those people forgot they had children by 2020

Surprised he hasn't actively encouraged his followers to write him into their wills. He could be picking up so many condos in the Villages over the next couple of years.

lol i wonder how many people designated him as life insurance beneficiary

and then struggled to find out his SSN

trumpworld is so crooked lol

I mean I'm looking forward to his death for many reasons but I just realized thanks to that farm video that his will/estate etc is going to be a comedic soap opera of epic proportions, god that will be fun when he sticks the knife into Don Jr from the grave

It’s an odd time

WATCH: Trump lawyer @JosephTacopina asks what Trump was "supposed to put in his personal ledger? 'Payment for hush money to quiet an affair I claim I never had'?"@chucktodd: "How about the truth?"

Lol "his hands were tied, he had to lie!"

As I said earlier, if Joe Tacopina is your lawyer, you might get off, but you did that shit and everybody knows it.

if you do hire joe tacopina as your lawyer maybe dont hire him as your going on tv guy too

He looks like one of those balloons from the Simpsons arcade game right before it explodes

I'm just waiting for Tacopina to join this list of over 30 -- 30! -- Trump lawyers who have been investigated, questioned, etc. about their work with him.

The New York grand jury being used for a criminal investigation of former President Donald Trump is not expected to hear evidence for the next month, according to multiple reports Wednesday.

love to see how our gullible-ass media fell for his dumb fuck truth post

welp.. love to see how he wriggles... etc etc

this is precisely why I remain firmly in the skeptical as fuck camp re: tangible consequences for this shitstain

if they can only push it a little further into primary season they'll be firmly in the "well gee we couldn't possibly do anything that would interfere with an election" zone

fwiw I did listen to an Ezra Klein podcast about this and his conclusion is that people shouldn't get their hopes up about the Stormy Daniels thing, in fact of the 20+ investigations Trump is currently under it's one of the least promising. the GA election interference and classified docs investigations are not only way stronger cases but obviously much more serious and damaging felonies. they're also cases which have won every mid-course court battle and the GA thing is about as open and shut as you can get. for political reasons you wouldn't really want *this* to be the thing he first gets indicted for anyway.

i'm sure that's true, at the point just annoyed for how many outlets fell for his self-serving bullshit so easily (last I saw he'd pulled in $1.5 million since his "arrest" claim)

but i don't think he'll ever be indicted for any of those other investigations either, this is all just nearly* meaningless show.

(* - obviously i'm all for this shit getting aired out and documented, so thankful for the investigations to at least pull that weight)

Starting to think our justice system is overly populated with people who are legit terrified of his violent base, so they just keep punting on everything.

This is why he whips up the violent rhetoric, the intimidation works! Straight out of his old NYC mobster wannabe playbook.

do grand juries usually take a month off before reaching a decision?

tbf media outlets are concerned first and foremost with audience engagement - trump's false claims about his arrest were a gift to them, and this delay is another gift

this hiatus was previously planned, not something they arbitrarily decided today. it's just that they didn't have an indictment prior to the previously scheduled hiatus

also it can be reconvened if Bragg decides to during said hiatus

waiting for Bragg to take a great leap forward

xpost - yeah the reporting is (unsurprisingly at this point) worded terribly. they aren't taking a month off, they are taking two weeks off starting April 10th. so the reality seems to be more "we won't hear anything more for probably a month" instead of an actual month long break.

The break is due in large part to a pre-scheduled two weeks off beginning April 10, the day after Easter, according to the people familiar with the situation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because grand jury proceedings are secret.

MANHATTAN GRAND JURY VOTES TO INDICT TRUMP: https://t.co/bLrHeXTFLJ

— Jonah Bromwich (@Jonesieman) March 30, 2023

but I was told it would never happen

An indictment will likely be announced in the coming days. By then, prosecutors working for the district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg, will have asked Mr. Trump to surrender and to face arraignment on charges that remain unknown for now.

think the consensus here was it probably would happen but that it's likely just gonna be a fine equal to maybe 5% of the amount he fundraised out of this

Going full resistance

Perp walk gifs time

Will L&O do a ripped from the headlines episode?

lets fuckin go baby!

Good morning!

it’s hard to see how Asshole is gonna wriggle his way outta this

I will believe it when I see it and not a moment before

He has risen fallen!

Another fucking indictment, great.

Whatever happens, I’m just going to enjoy the moment, you know? This moment, when anything seems possible.

he should go on the lam, down mexico way maybe

He should refuse to be taken alive.
