Trump is now being asked whether the valuations of a number of his properties are accurate.

Instead of answering yes or no, Trump is giving speeches about how and why he invested in various properties.

Again the judge asks Trump’s legal team to stop the speeches.

“I beseech you to control him if you can. If you can’t, I will,” Judge Engoron says.

    I really want to see his reaction to the courtroom laughing at him. I think this is the first time he is experiencing direct humiliation.

        I’m somewhat convinced that this moment was when he decided to run for President.

          I’m sure that’s the case. “We all know about your credentials and breadth of experience.” And the crowd laughs already, before he even gets to the punchline of firing Gary Busey. Dude’s been a complete joke for decades.

            Indeed. And of all the shit he’s done, I think this is what pisses me off most: it worked.

            Only … ev’ry time I see it. (Paraphrased from memento)

            It’s like a disclaimer in a TV commercial or a warning on a clothes iron (“do not use like telephone”): it’s required to keep us all safer.

          Haha yeah I loved how he caused the deaths of so many innocent people through the largest growth in drone strikes.

          Truely he seems so genuine, I’d love to sit down for a beer with him and Bush and than proceeded to kill myself for being a fucking idiot and having any favourable view on these scum.

      People like him cannot experience humiliation.

        He would never admit feeling humiliated, but I’d wager his entire personality is shaped around covering for his profound internalized shame and insecurity

        Maybe only if it somehow penetrates their narcissistic mental shields. Then humiliation immediately turns to rage.

        Nah, I don’t think that’s true. The dude is insecure as fuck, he kinda laughs stuff off, but inside he’s fucking frothing at the mouth and then unleashes it on twitter. In response, he’ll just double down with his bullshit and play it off, but in private, he writes people down on his “list”.

      Guarantee he thinks everyone laughed because he had such a great response to the question it made the prosecution look dumb.
