Must be nice to be able to live like a king & be immune from state crimes. Guessing the Gonzaga coach wouldn’t have made the news if he hadn’t crossed the Idaho border for his DUI.

It's part of the "he never lost" thing and likely a demand from Donnie himself. It's not just in the legal filings, basically anyone at all on the conservative side will refer to him as "President Trump". If I remember right, he really, really, really hates the "former" thing and will get mad at anyone who says/writes it.

Technically, "President" is one of those titles that stick around after the office. "President Carter", "President Bush", "President Clinton" are also all appropriate.

With Trump there's obviously a subtext though, especially when they use "Joe Biden" in the next sentence all the time.

Very stupid trivia: There’s actually been arguments about this since the constitutional convention. If you look up a formal manners or etiquette guide like Emily Post I believe they will all still say that “president” alone should refer to only one person, namely the current one.

However former presidents have been called “president” in some formal contexts since George Washington left office so :shrug:

Judge then called a lunch break, so we'll see if sanctions come up or whatever. May be that the judge is exhausted and just wanted it over after another bomb threat to his house last night.

From the article, he basically did. Per RollingStone, the speech was apparently rehearsed

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-rehearsed-fraud-trial-closing-argument-denied-1234944721/


quote:

Sources told Rolling Stone that Trump had been rehearsing what he thought would be a blistering, dramatic conclusion to the case that will determine the fate of his business empire.

On Wednesday, the theatrical plan by Trump and his attorneys fell apart after Trump’s legal team, led by Chris Kise, refused to agree to conditions that would restrict him from going off-topic or attacking individuals involved in the trial.

Trump didn’t care.

Without waiting for Engoron’s permission, Trump began delivering a grievance-laden tirade from the defense table after asking once again if he could address the court, calling the trial a “political witch hunt,” and saying that “we should receive damages for what we went through.” 
-----
Engoron allowed the former president to speak for several minutes, before cutting him off and instructing Trump’s attorneys to “please control your client.”

Has anyone seen updates on this? I've been searching high and low but there doesn't seem to be anything new. Last I saw there was no indication of any kind of terrorism, but it did seem intentional and no motive had been established.

A popehat quote:

quote:

Look, it’s perfectly clear Judge Engoron is going to hammer the Trump organizations based on the law and the facts and his past rulings. What does Trump really have to lose by monologuing? He sees himself as the hero giving a dying one-liner to the supervillain.

Q: Why doesn't judge sanction Trump again?

A: Why bother? Just more work and more appealable issues. Now the court of appeals will see him as very patient and lenient.

Also a moment that happened:


[interrupting Trump]

"You said you never had a problem. Haven’t you been sued before?" the judge asked.

"I’ve been sued," Trump replied

"Isn’t that a problem?" Engoron shot back.

Then Donnie did just stammering hurf blurf thing and that was that.

Ignoring his blithering bullshit and addressing his lawyer instead of him either has or shortly will send him into a full blown, nuclear-powered-volcano narcissistic rage fit. We probably won't see anything more than the usual dsmentia-brain diarrhea on social media from it when it happens behind closed doors but Trump is gonna flip his loving poo poo at max volume over that.

NY AG's office asks for lifetime ban from operating a business in new york for Trump, Weisselberg, and McConney and five year bans for his large adult sons. The former three have shown no remorse and were likened to Martin Shkreli. They think that Don Jr. and Eric were aware that the numbers were bullshit and should be punished somewhat, they weren't the source of the bullshit numbers - that was Trump. They're culpable because they signed the bottom line the last few years, but they were just figureheads who are only here in the suit because they signed the documents.

https://www.wndu.com/2024/01/10/indiana-files-bill-removing-transgender-recognition-updates-definition-marriage/

House Bill 1291, authored by Representative Chris Judy, R-Allen County, replaces the term “gender” with the phrase “biological sex” for statutes in which the term is used to describe the condition of being physically male or female. This includes documentation such as a driver’s license or state identification card. It would also apply in the case of sex discrimination, benefits, and services.

The bill also seeks to change the state’s stance on gay marriage by stating that marriage is “between one man and one woman.” Per the bill, any other marriage “is void in Indiana even if the marriage is lawful in the place where it is solemnized.”

More lovely things out of Indiana.
