    Trump spoke to the press in the hallway and excoriated the case. He ignored some of the questions he was asked, like, “Where’s Melania?”

    First of all, lol.

    Trump sits alone at the defense table motionless, occasionally scanning the empty bench where the judge typically sits. It is a striking image for a person who is typically surrounded by so many people.

    Secondly, where are all the people who claimed we would never get here? Where are all those who demand consequences?

    Trump is struggling to stay awake. His eyes were closed for a short period. He was jolted awake when Todd Blanche, his lawyer, nudged him while sliding a note in front of him.

    Thirdly, lol. Dozing Don strikes again!

      We have yet to see actual consequences.

        Yeah man. Being on trial for 34 felonies is a breeze. Literally a walk in the park.

        This man is literally shitting his depends as the head of the National Enquirer testifies against him, and you think he’s having a ball.

          Yes I can imagine it must be a major inconvenience whaa whaa. 😭 😭 😭
          Meanwhile he remains free and can run for President, while Cohen was imprisoned for this case, where Trump was clearly the instigator of the actions, and Cohen has finished his sentence with 3 years in prison, while Trump has had no consequences yet, including paying for the lawyers.
          There are clearly different rules for Trump, The case was reported in January 2018, and while Cohen was processed normally, the case is now reported more than 6 years ago, and Trumps role has been proven more than 4 years ago.

            You in the 1920’s:

            “Capone is untouchable! The Feds can’t pin any murders on him daddio! He’s doing he Charleston all over them!”

            Reality:

            IRS Special Agent Frank Wilson and the “T-Men” followed the money, gathering evidence that Capone had made millions of dollars on income that was never taxed. It paid off: Capone was indicted on 22 counts of federal income tax evasion.

            Capone was found guilty and sentenced to 11 years in prison.

            Alcatraz proved to be Capone’s undoing. The warden, James Aloysius Johnston, wasn’t as easily swayed as those Capone had previously encountered. When Johnston asked Capone his name, the mobster allegedly responded, “You know who I am.” Johnston is said to have retorted, “Here you are now known as AZ-85.”
