Trump blasts New York AG amid ongoing fraud trial: ‘I have no rights’

[Social Media]

 

Former President Trump called out New York Attorney General Letitia James in a video on Truth Social, claiming the Democrat was depriving him of his rights.

“This case should never have been brought and should never have been allowed,” Trump said in the video. “I have no rights.”

 

Trump has complained he’s not eligible for a jury in the case and has said a gag order barring him from smearing court staff is unfair.

Judge Arthur Engoron has already ruled Trump liable for fraud in the case. His company is accused of engaging in decades of fraud by inflating and deflating the value of its assets to pay less in taxes and receive better insurance coverage.

James brought the civil case last fall, suing the former president, his adult sons Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., along with former Trump Organization executives Allen Weisselberg and Jeffrey McConney and related business entities.

The trial began in New York on Oct. 2. Trump has voluntarily shown up in court several times and alleged the trial is a form of election interference.

“This trial is an election interference witch hunt and everybody knows it,” Trump said in the video. “All of the banks that I dealt with were very happy with us. They thought I was a great customer.”

In the video, Trump repeated the claim that James is “incompetent” and “a racist,” and he said the state of New York should “intercede and stop this total travesty of justice.”

 

FULL STORY

First amendment rights yield to judges orders not to intimidate court staff, prosecutors and witnesses.

 

Trump is out on bail, his lawyers should have explained the conditions of his bail include not breaking laws while he’s out.

 

He should focus on enjoying peace and quiet, a good nights sleep in clean cotton sheets, a comfortable bed, eating the food he wants when he wants, going where he wants whenever he wants and privacy, while he still has these things.

Someone should advise Trump that he has the right to remain silent.

All I read and see in posts etc by Trump is

 

I, I, I, or Me, Me, Me.

 

He seems to completely ignore other people's rights.

Has he ever taken advice or even listened to any?
