He just seems like the kind of guy who’s never been punched in the face but really needs to be.

so presidential when you cant control your own behavior.
conservatives really picking the best people.
They want the worst people. They love it. It makes them feel better about being such shitty people themselves.
So it’s cool if we fuck around in court? Contempt isn’t a thing anymore?
Federal judges (should) have a lot more decorum and patience. Actually all judges should have, but the US also popularized the mini dictators that dole out ridiculous punishments for "misbehaving".
People in court are not there because they bought tickets to the venue for their own enjoyment.
While I agree Trump should also have some decorum, he is effectively rich trailer trash. The judge treats him as such and in my book that makes the judge an icon.
The judge is above his petty nonsense but does take the time to make trump feel he is not in charge every time he steps out. And I think this is far worse for Trump's feelings than being stuck in a holding cell, that would just fuel his martyr syndrome.
You want Trump to lose in court ASAP
I want Trump to lose against diabetes ASAP
We are not the same
I know it's a longshot, but I'm really hoping for rabies.
It's probably syphilis though.
I hope for nothing contagious: his sycophants would deliberately infect themselves to be more like him and end up causing a rabies pandemic
You want Trump to lose against diabetes ASAP
I want Trump to lose, on the toilet, against a perforated colon and prolapsed rectum ASAP
We are, well, kinda the same, so hi-five friendo
While "former president" is a correct title, the media should really use "petulant man-child" instead. Far more accurate .
Traitor Trump fits too.
Fuckface 45
That's why he keeps doing it. They just threaten, no real consequences.
It's more that the judges will play by the rules so super hard that Trump can never appeal on the basis of unfair treatment. The consequence is really that the trials continue on as if he had never spoken, proving that his crying and hand waving have no real effect.
This lawless former president is a disgusting degenerate just like his cult followers.
Not being able to control oneself is a trait I require in a president.
He's obviously child trapped in an ugly and obese man's body. He thinks he's above everyone else because he has more money thanks to his daddy.
He's just a little brat.
He's pouting. He is losing and can't accept it. It's pathetic.
Don't just kick him out; give him a time-out in a holding cell!
Aaaand that's why two of his lawyers withdrew only shortly before the trial one even just the day before. They realised how unhinged he is and that there was no way to stop him, so they left the sinking ship.
Please I hope he forfeits his right to be there lol
He wants to be kicked out. His antics are meant to force it.
This way he can go keep that martyred persecution complex working for him. Evangelicals love them a martyr,
That's why it's important for them to put him in a holding cell instead of letting him pontificate to the media on the courthouse steps.
Well, that and the whole the fucker incited an insurrection, and has promised to do it again,
"I do not recognize the authority of a court that hangs the gilded flag. A flag with gilded edges signifies an admiralty court, an admiralty court signifies that this is a court martial. I can not be court martialed twice. Further more..."
"Bailiff, gag that man."
Honestly I don't think Trump should be kicked out of court. I say let him ruin his case and insult the judge until he's found guilty for contempt of court as well.
He's already well past what would be considered contempt of court for literally any other living human being. They're giving him as much rope as is possible for two reasons, one being so that absolutely no one can argue a mistrial, and the second being that he continues to attempt to hang himself with every length of rope let out to him. May as well let him continue.
so that absolutely no one can argue a mistrial
This is the part that people keep missing. Judges go into "Super Professional Mode" when these things happen and run their court so by the book that it's impossible for anyone to complain bias/unfair treatment.
Mr. Trump has the right to be present here. That right can be forfeited, and it can be forfeited if he is disruptive...
Doesn't that make it a privilege?
