Another Trump Trial Spurs Rage Posting - And a GAG Order

Trump is doing his best to piss off another judge. He's already issued a gag order for Trump and refused to delay the April 15 start of that criminal trial. I suppose a contempt charge will be next.

That asshole doesn't realize that every time he posts, he creates evidence for the next trial, the next election, the next investigation.

What a dipshit!

Donald Trump Attacks Daughter of Judge in Stormy Daniels Case
By Andrew Stanton
Weekend Staff Writer

Former President Donald Trump attacked the daughter of Judge Juan Merchan in a Truth Social post on Tuesday.

Merchan is tasked with overseeing the trial focusing on the hush money payment Trump allegedly made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Trump in 2023 with falsifying business documents, accusing him of breaking the law by making a payment to Daniels to prevent her from speaking publicly about her claims of having an affair with him.

Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied having an affair with Daniels.

On Tuesday, the former president took to his social media platform to share his latest attack against the judge and also targeted Merchan's daughter.

"Judge Juan Merchan, a very distinguished looking man, is nevertheless a true and certified Trump Hater who suffers from a very serious case of Trump Derangement Syndrome," he wrote. "In other words, he hates me!

"His daughter is a senior executive at a Super Liberal Democrat firm that works for Adam "Shifty" Schiff, the Democrat National Committee, (Dem)Senate Majority PAC, and even Crooked Joe Biden."

In a separate post, Trump argued that Merchan should recuse himself from the case, arguing that the trial should be moved to the more-conservative New York City borough of Staten Island.

"JUDGE MERCHAN SHOULD RECUSE HIMSELF, HE CANNOT GIVE ME A FAIR TRIAL. Likewise, for the sake of fairness, this 'Political Opponent' trial should take place in Staten Island, with a new and unbiased judge. The trial should not be allowed to start in the middle of my campaign for President," Trump wrote.

The attack echoes a post Trump made in April 2023 in which he raised concerns about Merchan's daughter's political connections. In that post, he accused Merchan of being a "highly partisan judge" with a family of "well known Trump haters."

His post drew criticism on X, formerly Twitter.

"Trump attacks the daughter of the judge in his Manhattan criminal case because he (1) can't help being despicable, (2) wants a gag order for political reasons, and/or (3) wants to be able to say, if convicted, that the judge mistreated him due to his attacks," posted Eric Columbus, who served as special litigation counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives' Office of General Counsel.

Former federal prosecutor Joyce White Vance posted: "Trump puts a target not only Judge Merchan in the criminal case in Manhattan but on his daughter. This is a rank effort at intimidating the judge by threatening his family. It merits a gag order but also serious pushback from GOP leadership--which we know won't come."

"Anyone else would be locked up," posted businesswoman Lea Black, a former star of The Real Housewives of Miami.

Newsweek reached out to Trump's campaign and the Merchan via the New York court public information office by email for comment.

The post comes just one day after Merchan set an April 15 start date in Trump's trial, which is now slated to be Trump's first criminal trial after weeks of delays. Legal experts said the trial may last only two to three weeks and that he is unlikely to face a prison sentence if convicted.

Trump said during a press conference on Monday that he plans to take the stand in the trial. He said he plans to appeal the start date and criticized prosecutors for bringing the case in the middle of the campaign.

"I would have no problem testifying," Trump said. "I didn't do anything wrong."

Trump won't take the stand- unless he's completely un-controllable by his attorneys. They wouldn't let him just run roughshod answering the questions from the DA Alvin Bragg and others; and answer them like good ol' Colonel Jessup (Jack Nicholson) did in "A few good men".

He'd incriminate his own self in such a way, that the state would rest it's case 30 minutes later- and get a conviction. I think it will be the shortest of trials and while Michael Cohel landed in the slammer- Trump will somehow walk away from this with a slap on the wrist. It's truly unbelievable how that keeps happening, but it does.

Let me add a little to the scenario:

If Dumpster's attorneys were smart, they wouldn't ask him any questions. He goes off on his stupid tangents and thinks he knows what to say. Of course, some of us know, saying nothing speaks volumes.

Then again, everyone needs counsel and representation.










So the Judge is a super liberal dirt bag Democrat, and his Daughter is associated with one of the most dishonest pieces of shit in Congress, the chief instigator in the whole RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA hoax.

And you all want Trump to apologize?

He calls it like he sees it. And he’s right.

The gag order is not unconstitutional any more that any other gag order in a criminal proceeding.

Problem is Trump’s behaviour can’t be put in context by the MAGA zealots.

Stop the fraudulent valuations. Stop paying off porn stars. Stop hiding classified documents. Stop trying to over-throw elections.

Geez - If you didn't tie Trumps name to this, and saw the accusations in a movie plot, you'd either think it was a mob guy or some incredibly un-believably stupid power hungry idiot who was gonna go to jail and get ass raped, by a bunch of thugs and nazi's. But when you see Trumps name added to the mix, - it becomes completely understandable and fully reasonable. well---it aint. Sorry Bro, but it aint.

All the trials I've seen Trump in,- he is a terrible witness and really just goes off the rails during questioning, - implicates himself and has not respect for courts or anyone who would hold him accountable. Russia x3 is actually full of a lot of facts. You all on the right may think that those facts would not have been found if not for the the forms and the erroneous FISA warrants- but the facts are the facts. Not alternative ones.


Mueller found that there was INDEED lots of interactions and bad actors involved in that- and they went to jail. How in the world is that missed by you all on the right? You don't go to jail on a simple say-so. The court has to proved that you broke the law, and they did with Manafort and Papadopoulos, Flynn and others.


Can you be so obtuse to the facts that you'll follow Sean Hannity's referrence of Russia 3x as it being a hoax and then the results were ppl went to jail???

Despite the GOP and Fox wishing that report was invalid- it wasn't. It showed that Dirty-Donnie will do WHATEVER it takes to get elected including lie and cheat and try to game the system - cause that's all he's ever done. Including now.

Including Selling for his benefit directly or to PACS:
  • 2 dollar bills
  • Golden Sneakers
  • Bibles
  • Trump guide for kids- Huckabee
  • MAGA hats
  • Maga Flags
  • Maga Shirts

What the fuck won't he sell to put a dollar in his pocket is a better question!?

The answer to above includes sharing "top-secret" documents to billionaires in Australia- and others.

How you guys are lemmings that will follow this guy is absolutely insane to the non-Trumpers. We think he's a menace, a disgrace, an embarrassment, and will simply destroy the USA and all the agencies that support it- when honest people and folks in government are there to support a president- but his one simply tears it down and puts nothing but conspiracies and doubt into every non-Trump bowing office. Including the justice department.

All of that is a fact.

While Rage poster boy Trump goes on his daily rant about not receiving fairness- one might ask, does he seem like the guy who isn't guilty of the crimes he's been charged with. Do the facts meet the accustations? Michael Cohen went to jail over this. Was that wrong ,- and he actually ended up confessing to the crimes. He's implicated his dumb ass boss in the whole thing. How did you all think that this was gonna go down eventually? He's got a BIG hole to dig out of, and it's gonna be ugly and he's going to be found guilty. What his sentence will be is a different story- but it could be impactful and significant if he cannot get it delayed.

This is the same rage whining moron who will by by the end of next week, will be 275 million dollars deep in Bonds, with a pending outcome of owing a total of 650 million dollars or more to those he's done wrong. That's just in 2 cases so far!

I can see why he's whining, cause nothing matters to Trump but money- yet his supporters don't give 2 shits about that. He's their last chance to keep any power in the US, and they have throw all in - as support. Hope he can run the country from the hoosegows'.

Yet they mindlessly and shamelessly follow this con man.

You have to wonder who is responsible, Trump or his adoring mob.
... Eye's post is "rage posting" in its best form...

Not quite sure what it has to do with the liberal Judge
and his Pundit daughter. But Trump DESERVES His "Free Speech" Rights!

For Truth, Justice and The American Way!

Trump attacks on hush money judge’s daughter based on fake account.

https://thehill.com/regulation/court...account-court/

Former President Trump — in lashing out against the daughter of hush money trial Judge Juan Merchan — pointed to a social media account that is no longer connected to Loren Merchan, according to a court spokesperson. In a statement first reported Wednesday, a spokesperson for the New York state Office of Court Administration (OCA) said the account in question was no longer associated with Loren Merchan, after she deleted the account approximately one year ago.

“Former President Trump — in lashing out against the daughter of hush money trial Judge Juan Merchan — pointed to a social media account that is no longer connected to Loren Merchan, according to a court spokesperson.
In a statement first reported Wednesday, a spokesperson for the New York state Office of Court Administration (OCA) said the account in question was no longer associated with Loren Merchan, after she deleted the account approximately one year ago.

“So, let me get this straight,” Trump wrote Wednesday on Truth Social. “The Judge’s daughter is allowed to post pictures of her ‘dream’ of putting me in jail, the Manhattan D.A. is able to say whatever lies about me he wants, the Judge can violate our Laws and Constitution at every turn, but I am not allowed to talk about the attacks against me, and the Lunatics trying to destroy my life, and prevent me from winning the 2024 Presidential Election, which I am dominating?

“Maybe the Judge is such a hater because his daughter makes money by working to ‘Get Trump,’ and when he rules against me over and over again, he is making her company, and her, richer and richer. How can this be allowed?”

Trump’s online remarks came less than 24 hours after Judge Merchan barred the former president from making public comments about witnesses, prosecutors, court staff or their family members “if those statements are made with the intent to materially interfere with” the case. The gag order does not preclude Trump from attacking Judge Merchan, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) or either of their families.

I R cornfused... Would not the NY prosecutor and judge demand that the Stormy Daniels post bond first, based upon her previous fine totals of about $650M that she already owes Trump, from two previous court losses, up front?!? I thought that was the NY way...

Also, I do have to admit to a great amount of at the thought of counting on a serial perjurer, Michael Cohen, that was banging the Steaming Stormy on the side since 2006. BRILLIANT!
