You May Already Be Famous

You know, Anderson, I'm struck, though, by the opening statement of his team today," he continued. "Basically, his attorney in terms of just the tone. It was sort of like hey, listen, be thankful Trump made you famous, right. The reality is that what do we have to do with social media and mean tweets that you get on social media. If you take on a person apt to be the president, guess what? You're in the position you want to be. You're on TV all the time. Emotional pain and damages, what are you talking about?" 
"I was surprised, tonally, with respect to how it was laid out," Jackson added. "It was clear to me based on that that perhaps they were not playing for those jurors, but playing for those other jurors who are at home in terms of the electorate, because we do know she serves that role as his spokesperson."
Nah. It’s a non-defense defense, but Trump thinks it is his defense. You can’t slip a piece of paper between Trump’s public statements and the positions taken by his lawyers. There’s a reason Tacopina is no longer working for Trump, and it’s because he tried (somewhat) to put on a defense in the first Carroll trial, and since that didn’t work (the smartest thing he did was keep Trump from testifying), Trump blames Tacopina. Not that Tacopina did a good job, but he didn’t put on a Trump defense.

Habba is doing that. Carroll is seeking fame and glory is “she was asking for it” and “Carroll should be paying Trump.”  All she didn’t say was that Trump doesn’t know Carroll, but that’s because Kaplan wouldn’t let her.
