I agree. In the upside down world of RW haters, they thrill to see him eluding accountability or bullying or getting away with lies. Chump gets off on lying lying lying and seeing who is still star-struck or nodding their heads along with him. He doesn’t care about the 50-60% who start to glaze over. He has been doing this carny barker sucker-search for many decades…rooms of people he puts on a little razzle-dazzle show for and he is selling condos or timeshares/apartments and he knows he won’t get them all…or even most of them. And he knows what that kind of person looks like when he’s trying to blow whoppers past them. If they are still listening and nodding after the 10th big whopper, they’re his kind of huckleberry.
Meh, if the courts reported interest on the money posted and refunded they’d have to address their failure to adhere to the constitutional speedy trial requirement.
Santos/Kitara/Devolder has surrendered his passports.
Donald Trump may be a genius reality TV carnival barker, but he is an awful criminal defendant, his own worst enemy, a defense lawyer’s nightmare, a cauldron of admissions against his own interest, an impulsive dolt who keeps digging himself deeper with almost every public utterance.
Except that nothing he said was under oath, so not admissible in a trial. Because of that the ‘I was just kidding’ defense would work just fine.
Rep. George Santos (R-NY), under federal indictment in New York, reached a deal with Brazilian prosecutors to confess to passing bad checks and to pay restitution in return for criminal charges being dropped.
Can this be used against him in the Federal charges here? Just that he did this at all should establish a precedent?
As a summer associate at a firm in Dallas, I worked (very little) with the guy that repped Oprah in the whole beef disparagement case. He was a good 1A litigator. He had interesting clients.
Went to a Rangers game with him, and he certainly exercised his 1A rights.
A few years back, a student was playing Devil’s Advocate for a Flat Earth theory. When he finished, I said, “You know, if the earth were really flat, cats would already have knocked everything off the edge.” He said, “I have no way to rebut that.”
So let’s have the SC Justices show us how toddlers can be “well-regulated”. How about letting a bunch of 1st graders roam the Supreme Court hallways with AK-15s? We’ll giving a fighting chance for this experiment.
Some years back, a trip to the British Isles would make you ineligible to donate blood if the trip occurred in a particular timeframe (the 80’s, I think). Don’t know if they ever rescinded that.
We have a cat that wanders our neighborhood that is hideous. He has a collar but is clearly abandoned. We call him “the boyfriend” because he yowls to our cats from outside. He looks diseased.
