Donald Trump fordert den Ausschluss von Richter Juan Merchan

I called for Trump to be jailed

And Americans called for Trump to be impeached… twice!

Shocker.

Trump and his MAGA loyalists continue to threaten swift retribution against their perceived political opponents.

They’ve threatened to “go after” the media, the “deep state,” journalists, judges, congressmen, civil servants, critics, anyone who has ever tried to hold Trump accountable for his crimes, anyone who participated in “stealing” the 2020 election, hell, anyone who has ever hurt Donald Trump’s feelings.

Every accusation is a confession, every investigation is a “witch Hunt,” every piece of negative coverage is “fake news,” every effort to indict or impeach Trump amounts to the “weaponization of the justice system,” every election loss is “rigged,” every criticism is unfair, every attempt to hold Trump accountable equates to “persecution.”

Trump is *always* the victim, and *always* the winner, no matter the circumstances.

The party of personal responsibility can’t seem to take responsibility for a damn thing.

There’s a demonstrative double standard at play here.

You may or may not be surprised to know how often Trump, his allies and co-conspirators have lied or attempted to obstruct justice during investigations over the last eight years.

Donald Trump has been evading justice and threatening to sue his critics throughout his entire life. He’s continuously exploited his wealth, power, and privilege to game the justice system and avoid being incriminated.

> In January 2023, a federal judge fined Trump and his attorney nearly $1 million, characterizing him as “a prolific and sophisticated litigant who is repeatedly using the courts to seek revenge on political adversaries”

This has always been Trump’s M.O. He continuously threatens to jail his political opponents, and is, even now, currently issuing threats to multiple media outlets and reporters.

Then there’s this:

> In 2016, the American Bar Association (ABA) commissioned a report to highlight Trump’s excess litigation, entitled “Donald J. Trump is a Libel Bully but also a Libel Loser”, but ***initially declined to publish it fearing being sued by Trump***

It also might not surprise you to know that Donald Trump has been involved in over 4,000 legal cases, many of which included financial crimes, multi-million dollar real estate disputes, tax and state law violations, dishonest business practices and defamation suits. Showcasing his penchant for corruption, fraud and vindictiveness.

He is a serial fraud and cheater. He cheats on his wives, on his taxes, he cheats at golf and constantly lies about his wealth.

He has persistently screwed over small businesses, patrons, staff, and financial partners who have had the misfortune of trusting him with their money or labor, often leveraging their money to make bankruptcy and unsustainable debts work for *him*.

Don’t forget about Trump’s recent felony convictions for falsifying business records in order to conceal a crime.

And don’t forget the time Trump was forced to pay more than $2 million in court-ordered damages to eight different charities for illegally misusing charitable funds at the Trump Foundation for political purposes. It was later forced to shutter its doors under court supervision.

Then there’s Trump University.

In 2013, A lawsuit was filed by New York’s AG, accusing Trump of defrauding thousands of people who attended Trump University.

Former students recount being pressured to provide high approval ratings for the courses they were taking, or have their graduation certificates withheld. Thousands of students sought course refunds and claimed that they never received any benefits from the courses.

There was also a class action lawsuit against Trump University, Trump’s counterclaims failed and he even tried to file a defamation suit against a student who made her experiences at the “university” public. Trump was later ordered to pay this student’s legal fees and costs. He was found to have defrauded students and was forced to pay $25 million in restitution.

Trump equates accountability with persecution because he’s spent his entire life exploiting his own wealth and privilege to evade being held responsible for his crimes.

On more than one occasion, Trump has eluded justice by power of executive privilege and through broad immunities granted to him by a DOJ and Supreme Court that he packed with kowtowing loyalists.

Don’t forget the indictments related to his negligent and nefarious mishandling of classified documents after misleading the National Archives and the DOJ for over a year.

Or the fact that he’s been accused of sexual abuse, harassment or rape by dozens of women, including one of his own ex wives.

Or how he has indicated that he will disregard the constitution to achieve his goals.

And of course, there’s his most recent indictments related to his efforts to conspire to overturn the last election. Including his attempts to defraud the country, disenfranchise millions of Americans, install loyalists into DOJ positions to help *him* steal the election, and his efforts to intimidate election officials into manipulating the vote for him. Not to mention the dozens of empty lawsuits filed by Trump’s team that were meant to disrupt the transfer of power.

For Donald Trump, life is a zero sum game and he is always the winner.

Which is why every investigation, indictment, impeachment or conviction is an act of injustice.

Yet, the MAGA crowd remains silent about this hypocrisy or they drum up whatever rationalization imaginable to defend this corruption. What’s worse, they then try desperately to make the criminals out to be the victims.

But God have mercy if Joe Biden, or any Democrat for that matter, is even rumored to have erred.

Republicans expect to be handed a hall pass. They demand immunities, empowered by the fact that so much of their misconduct has become practically legitimized as of late.

And more and more, Republicans are saying the quiet part out loud, that only *they* are entitled to the god given rights and freedoms afforded to them, that only *they* are entitled to privileges and immunities.

So of course Trump and his supporters cry often and loudly that Democrats are persecuting *them*, that Democrats are “weaponizing the justice system” against *them*.

But in reality, Republicans have been the ones targeting their opponents with needless, politically motivated investigations. It’s Republicans, and especially Trump, who continuously threaten vengeance against their political opponents.

Think about the general tenor of this last election. The bar for Trump and his MAGA allies remained and still remains shockingly low in comparison to the high standards that Americans expect of Democrats.

The media and the general public have played a hand in normalizing and sane-washing Trump’s criminal behavior and misconduct. His absurdity has magically rendered him benign. He’s made so many unconstitutional, unhinged remarks and anti-democratic threats, that many Americans stopped taking him seriously.

But Trump is not benign, he’s an idiot, yes, but a useful one. And his incompetence, his narcissism, his mental instability and his authoritarian impulses will go unchecked come next term. While his coalition of MAGA loyalists won’t hesitate to take advantage of him in order to push their far right agendas and consolidate power for the foreseeable future.

Fox News NEVER published the evidence that was shown everywhere else. Which means 70 million voters don’t know it.

I call for Donald Trump to be shipped to Guantanamo

Who cares what he calls for. I call for Trump to be impeached for a third time.

I don’t get how and why Trump can talk shit about the judge but the judge does nothing. Mind boggling.

I call forDonOld trump to be barred.

Expect Chief Justice Roberts to say nothing when Trump tries to intimidate a judge.

Didn’t someone rather recently say it should be illegal to criticize supreme court judges.

TFG. Some thing is either good or bad depending on how it affects him personally (or fits in with his current narrative)
Never on it’s intrinsic merits.

Party of law and order

Threatening an active Judge because of a personal vendetta against him. I’m sure this doesn’t just quite meet the requirements of being called fascism when asked by the conservatives. They’ll move the goalposts infinitely.

He was convicted by a jury, not a judge!

Honestly this is kind of Merchan getting what he deserved. Despite Trump literally threatening his family, he still gave him so much leeway that would not be afforded to any other person.

He capitulated to a bully and surprise, the bully still is targeting him

The man isn’t even going to be punished in any meaningful way. He’s just pissy because Merchan stood up to him.

Absolutely no credibility whatsoever. US is a joke.

All the orange guy does is whine. The orange man breaks the rules you pay the piper.

Awe boohoo. Convicted Felon doesn’t like his feelings being hurt.

Get fucked you idiot

“Your honor, I object!”

“On what grounds?”

“Because it’s devastating to my case!”

Merchan do America a favor and throw Trump in jail for a night. Give him to a death row inmate for a night.

The monster is in control and will try to destroy everyone who has opposed him.
Everyone who voted for him should be ashamed!
You all deserve him, but his targets and cognizant people don’t!
He did say “I love the uneducated”.
So I guess you are loved!
He forgot to mention that he loved money and wealthy people more than anyone!

He’s not even going to be punished. He’s getting the sweetest deal of all time and still he’s a whiny bitch.

To all the non racist, non self hating Republicans that voted for him – you are just as stupid as the rest of them.

“there has never been a President who was so evilly and illegally treated as I.”

Lincoln and Kennedy would disagree
