  1. I never tire of Trumpsters' hopes and dreams being routinely stomped on.

  2. The nine rules for being Trump's lawyer:

    1. Charge him at least quadruple for all your services.

    2. Get the money in advanced and don't do a drop more work until the next check has cleared.

    3. Do not believe a word he says.

    4. Do not swear to the truth of anything he has told you.

    5. See rule 4 (Seriously! Don't do it!)

    6. File whatever papers and sue whoever he tells you (See rules 1 and 2)

    7. Craft apology letters for all your other clients assuring them that defending trump was not a political choice and that he does not reflect you or your firm's politics. Say something about how your firm believes that everyone regardless of politics deserves the best defense available to them. And if you are feeling really brave, point out how defending high profile clients allows your firm the freedom to do additional pro bono work and provides it with the resources to better defend its other clients as well.

    8. Put aside at least a third of Trump's fees specifically as a cushion for any business you may lose if the apology letters don't all work.

    9. Finally, after the trials, arraignments, contempt hearings, appeals and pundant legal "expert" opinions dissecting all the work you did as if they have any idea what it is like to legally represent someone like Trump…

    Take a long vacation (see rules 1 and 2) not just from where you live, but from social media and the public in general. Bring with you the people you love and spoil them at least as much as you spoil yourself. Oh and be sure to keep seeing your therapist via zoom.

    Good luck counselors!

  3. Of course the liberal judge would.. I've not had enough of this man getting dog on .. I'll be voting for him 10 times now

  4. One of the jury who said yes Trump assaulted E. Jean Caroll was a Trumpet.

  5. Well of course! Because Carroll threatened to take off her sunglasses and turn the Judge into stone!

  6. LET'S GO BABBITT ! ⚰️🐑

    Baaa-Baaa Bitt ⚰️🐑

    WAY TO GO CHUMP ! 🤡

  7. FYI sheeple: Very soon, the Supreme Court will announce their decision on the Brunson 2020 Voter Fraud Case. That decision will reverse the 2020 Election because of massive Voter Fraud. This announcement will dissolve the Biden administration and Congress. Most likely the EBS will be activated. The military will intervene to maintain public order until new elections are scheduled. You have been victims of the corrupt, anti-American Biden crime family. Patriots have been trying to tell you. If you are not aware of any of this, you need to Wake Up! Now!

  8. George Soros, Victoria Nuland.

  9. President Trump don't understand His time is gone Let others play the game of politics ..President Trump run for office
    looks like run for revenge . I am republican center left . Civil war after Donald Trump wins ?

  10. that must be a record: Trump has lost every single case in which he is the defendant and never won a case where he is the plaintiff.

  11. Karen Trump is one trick pony but only in civil courts. Soon it’d be VERY different in CRIMINAL courts w/consequences! Can’t wait-televise this traitor acts for the world to see! #Traito45

  12. 😂 Fake45, Fake Lawsuit. Keep up all the nonsense n rhetoric Karen Trump. See ya at CRIMINAL trials Karen!

  13. The dotard LOST? Of course he did! Only his cult thinks of him as a winner.

  14. Isn't it odd that the only ones who support Donald are our enemies? Putin. Xi. Kim Jong Un. Magats.

  15. The Christian groups that support Trump even though he sexually abused this woman, plus the others we’ve heard about. Nice to see their moral stand in action.
