A Trump Civil Trial Is About to Start. It’s a Nightmare for Him.

[onthedarkside]

 

The first of what will likely be multiple courtroom battles for Donald Trump is about to start, after U.S. District Court Senior Judge Lewis Kaplan denied Trump’s motion to adjourn the scheduled April 25 trial of the civil assault charges filed against him by E. Jean Carroll.

 

Noting that it was the former president himself who largely “invited or provoked” the publicity that he claimed created a need for delay, Judge Kaplan ordered the trial to proceed as scheduled.

 

Trump now faces the immediate prospect of a face-to-face courtroom battle with a woman he described as a “nut job” who “enjoyed” being sexually assaulted.

It's no nightmare for him as he is used to the treatment from the Democrats  Some say show me the man And I will find a crime. Trump 2024!!!

It looks like Trump has chosen a winning team to defend him!

 

From the OP article:

"To defend against these charges, Trump has selected Joseph Tacopina as his lead lawyer. Tacopina is a rough-and-tumble brawler not known for his courtroom finesse or encyclopedic legal acumen."

"The other half of Trump’s legal team is Alina Habba, a Florida attorney with little if any actual trial experience."

You're not being fair to Alina Habba. She has had a very unusual experience actually. She was fined by a judge for bringing a ridiculous case to court.

Maybe criminal defendant Trump will get his story straight this time under questioning.

 

"Donald Trump recently mistook rape accuser E. Jean Carroll for his ex-wife Marla Maples when being questioned by her attorney for a defamation lawsuit".

 

"Trump’s belief that the she was actually his second wife undercuts the New York real estate mogul’s repeated claims that he would not have even had sex her because she is “not my type.”

So, you support rape or you just want to blame Democrats for everything?

Here we go again. How many attempts does this make?

 

Makes me wonder if it's all about deflecting public attention from something "they" don't want exposed.

He’s surrounded himself by people who tell him what he wants to hear.

 

Reality is about to get through.

Trump attempting to avoid being held accountable for his actions.

Trump:  I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

 

Trump: Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.

 

 

This may not play to well with the Jury trying to claim you would not have done what you brag about having done.

It’s a Nightmare for Him

He doesn't sleep.  He stays up to monitor what the media says about him.  Narcissism is a full-time job.

This taped episode along with the 24 accusations of actual sexual misconduct with other women, is prima facie evidence to establish the defendant Don's modus operandi which will likely be used against him.

"he described as a “nut job” who “enjoyed” being sexually assaulted." Sad if you want a guy like that as president.

Yes it is and there are many thousands of things he has said that are even worse. His fans seem to admire evil in the same way that Trump admires Putin and Kim. It's not only a cult it's a death cult.

OK, so we agree it's not the A team. But to be fair to defendant trump it's not easy to find any lawyers to represent him at all as any lawyer worth their salt have already taken Michael Cohen's advice.
