‘Don Poorleone’: Trump nickname trends on social media as ex-president faces bond deadline
The Cheeto has a new name: Don Poorleone! 🤣
I really hope the weasel doesn’t find his way out of this one.
Former President Donald Trump has been unable to obtain an appeal bond to secure a $454 million civil judgment against him in a New York business fraud case, his attorneys said in a court filing Monday.
It could not have happened to a nicer fellow. Congratulations, Donald!
The Supreme Court has ordered the most important of former President Donald Trump’s four criminal trials to be put on hold indefinitely. It’s an extraordinary victory for Trump and a devastating blow to special counsel Jack Smith. The Court’s decision also raises serious doubts about whether these justices will allow a trial to take place before the November election.
We are most certainly on our own as a nation. Mr. Millhiser paints a clear picture for us. There’s no way Trump’s trial will be completed, much less started, before the election.
If we don’t turn out like we did in 2020 the country and our democracy are lost.
Delaying the January 6 trial suppresses critical evidence that Americans deserve to hear. Donald Trump attempted to overturn an election and seize power. Our justice system must be able to bring him to trial before the next election. SCOTUS should decide this case promptly.

This is a clear and total victory for Trump. The trial will not conclude before the election, heck, it may not even get started, but that was the plan all along.
Nice work SCOTUS, by taking this up you’ve driven another nail in the coffin of American Democracy.
Fuck Trump.
That’s important background to Trump’s primary defense in his stolen documents case. Between his motion to dismiss because the Presidential Records Act doesn’t say what he claims it saysand his motion to dismiss for absolute immunity, he is arguing that he intended to steal boxes and boxes of classified documents.
We all know he did these things and at the rate the trials are going he’s going to delay in hopes of winning the election.
If he does it all magically goes away.
Fuck that guy.
