IINAL, but wouldn’t this almost be a 11 out of 10 for any lawyer filing this to find some sanctions or possible disbarment under their tree for Christmas?

Well, they made Clinton testify while he was President. If it’s good enough for Clinton, it’s good enough for Trump.

If he’s got nothing to hide, you’d think Trump would be chomping at the bit to go on the record under oath. Right?

Trump always blinks first and tells you exactly what he doesn’t want you to do.

If we have a less broken Justice system, he’d and his posse would be in jail already.

According to a copy of a lawsuit that Trump filed in the Northern District of New York, Trump wants a judge to declare that James’s civil investigation “harness[es] state police power to retaliate against, injure, and harass a political opponent.”

“Political opponent”? When did Trump announce his intention to run for NYS AG? You’d think that even his current strip-mall lawyer would have access to an online dictionary, even if she’s logging on using the unprotected wifi from the next-door 7-11.

Any Democrat is his political opponent. And anyone else who criticizes him is clearly a RINO and is also his political opponent.

Between morning tasks, I’ve only made it up to page 10, but it seems to be all “Letitia James is a DemocRAT and says mean things about Donnie” so far.

Actually, most of it could be turned into a pretty good campaign ad.

FOR James.

Actually in most Spanish-speaking countries, they have something called “Recurso de Amparo” (Writ of Protection), which if someone convinces a judge that he is being unfairly persecuted, the judge can order the suspension of an arrest warrant.

In his dictionary, “political opponent” means anyone who doesn’t turn the other way when he moves his golf ball, then loudly praise his skills.
