I saw this and thought "WTF?" And then Twitter came to my rescue.

Trump says he's suing NY Attorney General Tish James in a local Florida court.

What, and I cannot stress this enough, the everloving fuck??? pic.twitter.com/1Q3uvt9TCE

My first question was not "What are they doing?" My first question was: “How do they establish jurisdiction in Florida state court over the NYAG?

Grüß gott! Local Florida court has personal jurisdiction over the NYAG because she's "illegally" messing with Trump's revocable trust. pic.twitter.com/pPMRBFILvI

This is not the answer to that question.

No, I’m not going to explain jurisdiction. I’ll just say you can’t sue someone in another state in your state just because it’s convenient to you. Which is what Trump is doing.  Then it gets worse:

Guy who campaigned on a platform of LOCK HER UP is bigly mad that someone promised to investigate his company and then did it.

Let’s pause to put this in context:

Okay, if you follow Donald Trump's constant churn of pathetic LOLsuits you've seen all this garbage about AG James being illegally biased before. He tried to get the NY state court to block the AG's investigation. That failed.https://t.co/37b4snsgWI

Now he's trying the exact same bullshit in a local court.

I can’t offer a definitive legal analysis, but it looks like Trump ran out of options and grabbed Florida law on trusts to get jurisdiction over AG James in Florida.

No, that’s not going to work.

The same clown college graduates who lost 62 cases? The republic teeters on the razor's edge.
