“I JUST STORMED INTO COURT,” one fundraising email read when jury selection began last week. “But instead, I’m stuck in Biden’s Corrupt Court AGAIN facing 34 FELONIES & LIFE IN PRISON. TALK ABOUT TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME!”
Trump [sic] just can't maintain a train of thought if his life depended on it. He both "STORMED INTO COURT,” and at the same time he's "stuck in Biden’s Corrupt Court AGAIN[.]" Well, which was it Mr Trump**^^^^? Furthermore, he's broadcasting what he must know is bovine scat, "LIFE IN PRISON." I seriously doubt that NYC laws include a life sentence for (more) financial fraud, but the MAGA cultists absorb everything TFG says as the gospel truth.

“We are not yet seeking an incarceratory penalty,” he said, adding that Trump apparently wants to go to jail: “Defendant seems to be angling for that.”
The best solution has come from Jonathan Alter, referencing what a long-time reader said to him,
*Perfect*. The picture in my mind's eye is that Trump [sic] is standing roadside, in an orange jumpsuit that clashes with his "natural" skin tone, picking up roadside trash -- which as the story also suggested "[t]he orange man in the orange jumpsuit would need help picking up all of the Styrofoam coffee cups, beer bottles, and used condoms." It's the used condoms that paint the picture for me.

“The legal bills suck, but they’re getting taken care of. Trump is doing what he needs to do.”
For anyone else, yes, legal bills suck, but not for TFG. He is doing what is necessary: grifting his own supporters to the max. No matter how hard I try, I just can't grok the mindset of the cultists that says "I need to contribute to the billionaire's defense fund *and* campaign because... Trump." The man (and I use that word very loosely) is a Svengali when it comes to conning money from those supporters who likely can least afford it, solely because he's a narcissist who doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone else -- unless that person can add to his personal bottom line.

"An Old Goats reader suggested he be assigned instead to pick up trash by the side of the road, a punishment sometimes used by judges in New York City cases. Perfect! This would punish him, humiliate him, and—because it’s hard to imagine anything he would less like to do—deter him." https://washingtonmonthly.com/2024/04/05/make-donald-trump-pick-up-trash-if-he-violates-the-gag-order/
