Let’s Follow Trump’s Case On Twitter

I think this is where it started; but I can’t be sure. Good enough for our narrative purposes, because this is how you say “Fuck you and the horse you rode in on” in a legal pleading. It’s also how you tell your opponents they’re incompetent jabboes beneath your contempt. I mean, that’s just brutal “you aren’t worth the paper” language.

Interestingly, Trump has taken a lesson from Ken Paxton today: neither of them wants to be in open court:
Part of that is about this: Yup. The retired judge is schooling the sitting judge on how to do her job. Which she clearly isn’t any good at. But to get bitch-slapped by the appellate court so quickly, and then rebuked by the retired judge you appointed? This is going to get worse for everyone involved, except the DOJ, which is just slapping shit out of Trump’s lawyers.

The judge responded as passively as possible:
Oh, no, there’s more: Getting Trump to pay for it? Well, first, that’s fair; he started this, he should pay for it. But also: *chef’s kiss*! And Trump, if it wasn't clear, is toxic. What all this means is that the DOJ is already in the endgame: Trump filed this hoping for delays. Now he’s complaining to the SM that things are going too fast. Don’t expect any sympathy there. DOJ is saying “Suck it up, buttercup. You started this. We’re gonna finish it.” The judge is bowing to the SM because she’s in so far over her head she has to look up to see bottom. No help coming to Trump there. Trump was in a world of hurt when the FBI came calling. He’s only made it worse since.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
