The former president complained that his sentencing is set to take place days before the Republican National Convention

Donald Trump says he wants the Supreme Court to intervene in his upcoming sentencing on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.

“The ‘Sentencing’ for not having done anything wrong will be, conveniently for the Fascists, 4 days before the Republican National Convention,” Trump wrote Sunday night on Truth Social, complaining that Judge Juan Merchan was an “‘Acting’ Local Judge, appointed by the Democrats, who is HIGHLY CONFLICTED” to “make a decision which will determine the future of our Nation.”

“The United States Supreme Court MUST DECIDE!” Trump added in an appeal to the nation’s highest court.

    I think the Florida Supreme Court was still dealing with Bush v Gore when the Supreme Court jumped in. Although, I guess that one did have a more direct relationship to Federal law. But it was 100% bullshit, regardless.

      Ah yes, Bush v Gore. I’m fairly certain that Y2K is where our current shitty timeline diverged from the good one.

        No, it was 2012. The mayans were totally right, it just wasn’t the sudden flip switch end of days people expected. :p

        That’s when the Matrix glitched out and now we’re all living in human battery hell.

            If that wasn’t tbe most boomer bullshit. “We met everyone’s needs, and people still weren’t happy.” Fuck outta here, like you couldn’t drop every person who ever lived naked on a beach with margaritas and nachos for them to spend eternity.
