Good bot.
Nailed it.
Yes, spend more of the RNC's money on fruitless legal maneuvers. Drain the accounts, and fail to fund downticket races across the country. Hopefully, progressives can capitalize on this and replace some of the shitbags that have been creeping into state and local offices where much of the actual governing takes place.
Its like when you're watching an action show, and the protagonist is in peril, the situation is dire, you cant imagine how he's gonna get out of this one but you know he will because that's how the show works.
So a judge is presiding over a case for a crime that we already know happened and how it played out, people are already in jail because trump ordered them to buy this girl's silence, this trial is basically just a formality. He's been harassing the judge, their family, and the court staff, and realistically putting their lives in peril trying to incite violence against them. Now he is also suing the person who gets to decide his verdict in the crime that's already been settled in court as having happened.
I already know he's going to avoid consequences, but god how?
The American legal system is not meant to deliver justice, it's a mechanism for the rich and powerful to break the law.

Fortunately Trump couldn't kill any women and use them for their scent in a massive orgy.
Just another delay tactic. Here's hoping that the courts eventually get tired of all his BS and throw the book at him.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Donald Trump has sued the judge overseeing the Manhattan hush money case against him in another last-ditch effort to stop his first-ever criminal trial, less than one week before jury selection is scheduled to begin.
Mr Trump is expected to ask appeals court judges to block the gag order and move the case out of Manhattan, among the latest attempts to delay the proceedings after failing to stop the first among the four criminal trials he is expected to face in the coming months.
Last year, in the first criminal indictment against him, a grand jury charged the former president with 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with repayments to his then-lawyer Michael Cohen, who arranged a hush money scheme to prevent the release of potentially compromising stories about Mr Trump and his affairs.
The case from the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg could rely on Cohen’s testimony that Mr Trump authorised his business to falsely file payments as legal expenses, part of an alleged effort to quash stories that could interfere with then-candidate Trump’s 2016 campaign, according to prosecutors.
That motion represented “yet another last-ditch attempt to address [the] defendant’s real objective … to delay this proceeding indefinitely.”
Mr Trump’s attorneys similarly sued a judge last year to block gag orders in a sweeping civil fraud case that prevented the former president from disparaging court staff.
The original article contains 351 words, the summary contains 231 words. Saved 34%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Bet he would like to .ove the trial to deep south Mississippi or Alabama. He's Sure he could get a jury of racists down there to find him not guilty.
