Why, for god's sake, are tRump's lawyers persuaded to submit such ludicrous motions, knowing full well that Judge Merchan will simply dismiss them and pitch them into the East River out of hand? Sure, tRump pays them to do his bidding, but really, where are they parking their own responsibilities as officers of the court already?

But, does he pay them?

You may well ask, Nina...but I'm sure these retainers are paid out in advance...none of this "just put it on my tab, Todd"...LOL!

They learned once they found out how many people he’d already screwed by refusing to pay them what they were owed.

Since they clearly aren’t doing it for kudos it can only be the money. It would have to be good money too to compensate for losing their reputations amongst their peers.

This is just campaigning by other means. His lawyers are being used as pawns in this game. There should be legal and monetary sanctions for frivolous actions and wasting the court’s time. Judge Merchan would do well to levy some.

They've sacrificed any integrity they once might have had, all for money (if he ever actually pays them), and the entire republican party (which he now controls) has also done so.

You said it!

I am so ever-effing TIRED of his neediness and pathetisadness. I just want him to go away. Far, far away, and never come back. If I never heard his name, saw his face or heard him speak ever again, it would be too soon.

How can average human beings be expected to stay strong against a constant barrage of ignorance, obnoxiousness and criminality.

I’ve never, in my 51 years on this earth, known of another human being who is such a drain on public well-being. He must be the neediest, most pathetic individual ever born on this planet.

Well, he has discussed several times fleeing to Venezuela! He apparently (not personal testimony as I can't stand EITHER of them speaking) invited Elon Mu$k🐀 to come & interview him there if/when he leaves the USA! I say encourage him - bribe him - offer him ANYONE's private plane .... and then of course sentence him to incarceration in one or more of his legal trials so he doesn't dare come back 😁

He is also a felon and has dementia! I am also glad he picked Vance. It shows that Agent Orange wants to cater to his cult.

It will be fun to see him nodding off at the court appearances he will have. I bet his lawyers are medicating him to keep his mouth closed.

Don-old is always looking for a delay or he is liar,liar. Pants on fire. All these frivolous appeals. They should start fining him for wasting their time along with saying NO.

Aren't these motions frivolous at best? He and the lawyers should be fined for this. It's happened in other Trump cases, and it seems like time for NY to stand up for itself.

I’m not sure how his attorneys in good conscience can even do what this crazy man wants them to do. I guess he gets his attorneys at (the old saying) Kmarts Blue Light Special. Special being the key word

The mind of Donald Trump was history long before Kamala Harris became his opponent. On January 11, 2021 in the Scientific American Newsletter, "Forensic psychiatrist Brandy Lee - who is also the President of the World Mental Health Coalition - explains the outgoing president's pathological appearance and how to wean people from it." She identifies two major serious emotional issues exhibited by Trump: narcissistic symbiosis and shared psychosis. We have, of course, heard this word used in reference to Trump many times before - but perhaps not by someone who is as qualified as Ms. Lee. The second issue is "shared psychosis" and explains "When a highly symptomatic individual is placed in an influential position, the person's symptoms can spread through a population for a list of reasons including paranoia and propensity for violence.: She goes on to say "Destructiveness is a core characteristic of mental pathology. . ." This is an informative read, but the bottom line is that Trump displays all the symptoms of emotional fragility and mental illness and his narcissistic manipulation has lead to a collective mental health issue among his followers.

Trump's long-term decline began with his many bankruptcies (6). (The Washington Post, Sept. 2018). By 1990, Trump's businesses in the U.S. were in financial trouble and U.S. banks refused to loan him money. The Russians bailed him out. (Foreign Policy, Dec. 2018 “How Russian Money Helped Save Trump’s Business”). The Trump Tower in SoHo (New York City) was entirely bankrolled by Russians and his tax records - which he tried to cover-up for years - show many multi-million dollar real estate transactions with Russians moving into Trump-labeled buildings. He unknowingly was trapped by Russian KGB/FSB and used as a pawn in an international spy trap.

On November 9, 2015, just a few minutes after Trump was elected president of the U.S., a man named Vyacheslav Nikonov approached a microphone in the Russian State DUMA. He said "Dear friends and colleagues, three minutes ago, Hillary Clinton admitted her defeat in the U.S. Presidential elections and a second ago, Trump started his speech as an elected President of the United States of America. I congratulate YOU for this. (Craig Unger, American Kompromat) and quoted in E. Graham's book From Democracy to Democrazy). In other words, the Russian government is patting themselves on the back and claiming victory for the Trump win in 2016.

While psychiatrists and mental health professionals in the U.S. continue to label Donald Trump as mentally unfit to be the President of the U.S. (he recommended people ingest disinfectant as a cure for COVID - NBC News, April 24, 2020), he has also become entrapped by the secretive Russian Security Forces - the DKRO is the counterintelligence arm of the FSB - and Trump has sold his soul and our country to the Russians.

Trump is desperate, and this perilous presidential run is his last-resort along his long downhill road to self destruction. Harris is a past prosecutor and a law and order candidate who will go after Trump for his many criminalities - fraud, 34 felonies, and he is legally labelled a sexual predator.

Buckle up - the road to the election will be bumpy and historical.

Our Country is clearly headed in the wrong direction and you obsess over trivialities while Kamala and Tim are full court liars. You and your petty followers grasp at straws while questions such as why did Tim feel the need to take groups of students into Communist China over 30 times over the past 30 years? Why was his wife thrilled while her cities burned? Why is he lying about his military “lack of combat” service, referring to combat duty several time. Why does the Washington Post even call her out on her promise of grocery price fixing when everyone knows with a profit margin an average of 1% she could collapse all of our local grocery stores, and a tried before policy with a history of failure? Does she think all of a sudden this time it’ll work? Why is she copying Trump’s promise to exclude service personnel from taxes after she makes the deciding vote on one of the largest inflationary bill to be passed in decades, assuring funds for over 86,000 IRS agents with guns to go after just these types of people? Why is she hiding? Why are they refusing to debate Trump and JD? Why are they left of Bernie Sanders, but are trying to convince voters that they’re moderate? Why is all of media blowing her up into some stupid ass “Joy Icon”? Why did Gov. Tim take out language that excluded pedophiles from protected status, now apparently protecting pedophiles? Why are you all so damn dumb? Love Trump, hate Trump, he’ll at least bring back a semblance of prosperity and sanity and restore a semblance of law and order and a semblance of border control. Why do you all support the destruction of our Country? If the scales ever indeed fall from your eyes, you’re all going to be mighty pissed at all the lies you’ve been spoon fed.

Trump needs to explain to the public how Kamala’s price controls will affect the costs to manufacture products and provide services.

If a product’s price is fixed, then the costs to produce that product must be reduced, which means reductions in labor employment, reductions in quantity of products produced, reductions in profits to pay taxes, wages, dividends to investors, and re-investment in business infrastructure and research and development.

Kamala’s price controls = empty shelves!

Dementia Don? I think you have your President’s mixed up. The current body inhabiting the WH has had cognitive decline for years which is why he stayed in the basement throughout the campaign and yet amazingly pulled in 81 million votes ( more than Obama!!). And now, the worst VP, the border czar, the deciding votes for legislation that has propelled us into hyperinflation is now the best thing since sliced bread. No policy proposals or interviews for her, let’s just let her hang out in the basement and let’s see how many votes will magically appear. President Trump can easily have a conversation without a teleprompter for hours. You may not like what he has to say but dementia is not the issue.
