Absolute Man-Child.
Takes his toys and storms off when he's not allowed to use the court room as a free campaign event.
Oh please don't use the word "deep" in relation to that.
I see this as a form of good humor.....
It's not even about stalling. It's about pushing some lies central to his whole platform. Trump doesn't see court cases against him. He sees ratings. He sees a chance to spread flagrant propaganda. It's worth noting that Trump and his team were loving the news coverage about getting booked into the police station as his motorcade was being tracked OJ Simpson style. The thing that would hurt Trump the most would be for the news networks to turn him off. That's what he could not handle. But it doesn't matter whether it's a station who's sympathetic to Trump or not, they're all addicted to the ratings he brings in.
They say that Trump doesn't know what he's doing. I would say that's true depending on what you expect of the role he's in, but that's not the game he's playing. Controversy and outrage is the whole point.
My mother in law has died, can we put the whole thing off till the 29th January so I can mourn her and comfort my grieving wife?
No, a lot of people have been organised to accommodate you, we will go ahead as arranged.
But its NOT FAIR! I have been lied about and and that nasty woman has been getting at me, I need to get the truth out there and I want to do it my way!
I briefly misread this and was wondering what thread I had opened.
Chris Christie has suspended his campaign. If he throws his support behind Nikki Haley, Trump is going to start sweating (more).
I don't think it'll make much of a difference. She's an indian woman. Not exactly MAGA material. I wonder does he change his own diapers or is that what he's keeping Walt Nauta so close for.
I don't think she's looking to really appeal to MAGA, but she's not looking to p|ss them off, either, but more a (ahem) confederacy of disaffected Republicans and moderates. Would it be enough? Probably not, but it'd be nice to watch Trump have another source of agitation if Haley does better than expected.
Haley will need to grow more of a backbone, though. She can't truly run against Trump if she is essentially pledging fealty to him.
I'd say her chips are fully in on the following election, with a VP slot in this one.
It's cute that some Republican politicians are still looking to the "next election" as if Trumpism is just some passing phase, not the party's defining ideology and the culmination of the direction their base has been moving in since Ronald Reagan lifted the restrictions on media bias.
Here's what will happen : Trump will lead the party until he dies and then the party will undergo a power struggle which will last as long as it takes for them to realise they have to fall at the feet of Don Jr. End of.
The Fox News townhall was disgusting. Bret Baier terrified of fact-checking any of the non-stop stream of lies coming out of Trump's mouth, because ratings.
she and DeSantis barely even mentioned Trump in their townhall last night - They just took pot shots at each other.
They are all terrified of actually calling him out on anything beyond some nebulous discussion of "moving on" or something.
Well if the courts side with Trump and tell him he has Presidential Immunity, he could have them killed if he becomes President again so probably best to stay on his good side.
Easily disproven too.
He claimed he didn't say things he did say, which are on tape. Just roll the VT ffs.
Trump wouldn't agree to come on their channel if he thought they were going to "persecute" him in any way and given the amount of "persecution" Trump will have felt has already taken place against him, Trump would find it terribly sad, I'm sure, if Fox News joined in on that. Why, Trump would have to take himself over to One America News or Newsmaxx instead and tell his followers to boycott Fox News from now on.
As long as Trump continues to net ratings, he essentially holds America's news media in his pocket, even CNN, because even they give him tonnes of free publicity.

What does the future hold for Donald Trump?
I did not see an option for him drowning in a barrel of his own piss
Patriots, no doubt.
Trump would say they're special. Not be-allowed-into-Mar-a-Lago special, but each of their families would receive a MAGA gift set upon conviction including several Made in China articles of clothing.
As long as they pay postage, packaging and administration fees, of course.
but each of their families would receive a MAGA gift set upon conviction including several Made in China articles of clothing.
"For only a small (recurring) donation of $99.99 , 10,000% matched by Donald Trump himself.."
That would honestly be too good for the orange cretin. The amount of damage his lies continue to do to that country will take generations to fix. That's if it's fixable at all at this point.
I love this
That is epic. :D
DeSantis is fighting for the nomination if the SCOTUS disqualificies him, Haley is fighting for the VP nomination.
Neither are contesting against him
Sounded like Trump wasn’t having the best day in court yesterday. Glorious.
And then went off in a huff and had another media rant in the afternoon where he covered all the hits , including repeating (again) the defamation of E Jean Carroll by claiming to have never met her and that she is lying.
He's in court again in a few days for the last time he did that so I expect they'll either use his latest outburst in that hearing or simply sue him again.
Haley is hoping Trump is disqualified, or setting the ground for a 2028 run. VP slot not available to her.
Considering Leticia James revised her damages figure from $250 million to $370 million, that tantrum could have cost Trump $120m. The quintessential 'chat sh!t, get banged'
