Retro42 posted:So they are all gonna pass the blame until it gets to Trump where he's just going to brazenly lie his rear end off and say he didn't direct anyone to do anything. Feels like their whole legal strategy revolves around trying to convince a jury that it's "probably" not the Trump family at fault when in reality the judge who holds the power already stated they are less than trustworthy or whatever polite way Engoron said "You are all lying fucks". This may be why Engoron stating that he found that Trump is "not a reliable witness," is a big deal. If everyone passes the buck up to Trump, and the judge finds--as he has already found--Trump is not a reliable witness, well then there's your criminal intent to defraud. Also, attemping to bribe a sitting Federal judge is definitely something Trump should be charged with. Funnily enough, I'll bet such a case wouldn't fall in Cannon's jurisdiction!

more courtroom drama focused around engoron's clerk maybe someone with actual courtroom experience can weigh-in, but this whole tangent to the civil fraud case has just been bizarre. i'm not surprised trump would make these kind of public attacks on a court staff member, but his legal team doing the same after clearly being warned by the judge seems shocking to me quote:A defense lawyer took a pointed verbal swipe at the law clerk in the Trump civil fraud trial Thursday, prompting anger from the judge, who accused the lawyer of misogyny and threatened to gag him and his colleagues. not included in the article is habba's comment that she can't be misogynist because she is a woman and thus is immune to misogyny attacks on the integrity of a judge aren't exactly great, but i see a need for defense to be able to raise those kind of concerns. choosing to focus on and publicize a basically formerly anonymous member of the judges staff as the insidious influence corrupting the judge from behind the scenes is gross, and i hope this comes back to bite kise and habba in the rear end down the road this has to be vanishingly rare right?

The idea of even trying to make hay out of the law clerk performing the exact and precise duties of a law clerk is bonkers, it's like insisting something untoward is taking place because a lawyer is advocating for their client. Though I am not sure if it's an attempt to cause provide as part of a scheme, or simply trying to stay in Trump's good graces (the most generous interpretation being maybe in the hopes he'll listen to their recommendations on his testimony next week?) and knowing that he gets real upset when anyone in his employ doesn't hammer whatever inane, insane, preposterous notion has crossed the lump of sludge that passes for his mind.

It has three "benefits" -Trump is almost certainly demanding they figuratively piss on someone -It feeds into the conspiracy theories that MAGA/Q inject straight into their veins like hydroxychloroquine -The only possible chance to "win" this poo poo is to get the judge so mad that he makes an appealable mistake or has a heart attack The down sides are of course so numerous and large that only loving charlatan idiots would do it. Which is conveniently the only legal council that Trump can/will employ.

# ? Nov 3, 2023 10:13 |
Yeah, I expect that this is driven by Trump. Not in a direct manner - it never is - but by him constantly "asking" his lawyers why they don't do something about this clerk. That's what he always does: try to pick out a perceived weak spot (by looking what gets a reaction) and then hit it again and again and again. That the judge has reacted to it first by angrily demanding Trump stop, then with the gag order and now by angrily demanding that Trump's lawyers stop signals to Trump that he is on the right track. We'll see if that's the case.

Trump can really only find lovely moron lawyers at this point. See also an entire legal team taking plea agreements to testify on stuff they agreed to do for him in office. Trump also now views everything as a PR battle to rally supporters with and is only comfortable with Cohn-style lawyers. These are great for intimidating contractors who can't afford multiyear legal proceedings and other vulnerable parties. The government is just going to keep grinding.

Gyges posted:It has three "benefits" Yeah, it's this. To be fair, I cannot imagine a better way to get a judge mad than personally attacking his clerk; in a certain very dark sense, Trump's lawyers are actually doing a good job, in that they're executing the best strategy available to them competently. I guess in New York there are enough judges out there that these lawyers don't have to worry too much about ever appearing in front of that judge again. In a smaller state this would be the equivalent of torching your license to practice law in that judge's county.

If one of the Q crazies guns the clerk down nobody will know in his heart of hearts what motivated the lone wolf. Everyone will say it because everyone knows it, and it'll be all over every news channel, but nothing official would come from it and Trump would probably end up with a delay in his trial like he wants anyway. Gotta make sure it's a fair trial after all, just that some people's trials are more fair than others.
