He also called the judge a “bully” and implied that imposing rules, including evidentiary regulations and courtroom behavior, on Trump and his attorneys was evidence of bias.

a bully? amazing how this fascist strongman can be such an absolute bitch all the time too.

HikingVet,

They all are. It’s a thing for them.

CIA_chatbot,

Conservatives are the biggest snowflakes, afraid of everything. They are like those little yappy dogs that bark at everything

Your post history is full of you trying to convince people that there aren’t any modern fascists.

And I’ll proudly wear the “weirdo” badge for pointing it out.

They’re under your bed and in your closet! Watch out! Them crafty scaaaary Nazis are everywhere!! Oooo!!!

We all know why you have a very directed interest in normalizing fascist rhetoric.

It’d be like if I got incredibly mad every time someone called a stranger a goat fucker for fucking goats.

You’re telling on yourself.

I just love making you people upset. It’s hilarious. It’s like people who believe in bigfoot. When you tell them bigfoot doesn’t exist, they get upset and try to convince you that he’s real when in reality, he doesn’t.

Only one of us is upset here.

You sure made me look ridiculous.

Right, zombie is the one freaking out…

Yum yum yum.

Telorand,

Just block em and move on. It’s not a credible premise, so no need to engage honestly, since they won’t offer you the same courtesy.

Burn_The_Right,

I thought we de-federated sh.itjust.works. That server is a fucking cesspool of conservatism and should be excluded from normal communities.

Phegan,

For fascism to work, the other must be simultaneously weak and strong.

Milk_Sheikh,

And deep down, he knows this to his core. “Bully” implies a victim who cannot protect themselves (and is therefore ‘weak’ to authoritarians), while the bully has all the strength and power.

Donald could have chosen from a number of non-SAT words his followers can digest easily, that wouldn’t betray his actual self image. Challenger. Punk. Hater. Obsessed. Crooked. Hell , even calling him a Democrat plant/operative/etc would have played better

flipht,

The whole gag to fascism is that it is 100% projection at all times, both internally and externally.

They attack people because they're afraid to get attacked and they can't imagine a situation where everyone isn't thinking exactly like them, so of course it's only a matter of time before they're attacked...and thus must attack.

It's circular and deeply uncreative, but it is the root of every bully, from the playground to the autocratic despot.

CitizenKong,

It’s a also a pretty strong sign for narcissism, and by extension psychopathy.

He doesn’t seem to understand that he’s on a race to the bottom for lawyers.

The ones who could (potentially) win the case, will never take it. The ones who will take the case have no hope of winning it.

TWeaK, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

Donald Trump does not like to lose

You’d think he’d be used to it by now.

Maybe Giuliani is free?

In both that he’s not busy and will work for exposure.

Legal exposure, of course.

Please please please go back to Giuliani I beg you

SinningStromgald,

He won’t. Ghouly wants money and Trumpet hates paying money.

I believe Rudy is also suing him for not paying his legal fees, so that door's been shut - maybe he'll have another press conference in front of a lawn care store to sweat about it.

He's still free for a little while longer, but he's been disbarred.

aniki,

Has that gone through? I’m not seeing anything past being recommended to be disbarred.

remotelove, to random in SECRETIVE: Rudy Giuliani ORDERED TO REVEAL who is paying his legal bills

SECRETIVE? Not with SELECTIVE CAPS IT ISN’T.

BustinJiber, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

Two funny questions: will she sue him for back pay?, and can he really afford new lawyer now?

badbytes, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

Did the payday deadline just pass?

ShittyBeatlesFCPres, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

His only strategy is to string this out on appeals and I guess ineffective counsel is one appeal? Not sure if that’s allowed in this type of case of if you’re the person who had possibly the most lawyers of all time.

khepri,

No appeals based on incompetent/ineffective counsel for a civil case. In a criminal case, a convicted defendant may appeal on the grounds of ineffectiveness of counsel at trial. This principal arises because of the constitutional right to be represented by counsel. Such a right would be meaningless unless it implies a right to effective counsel. There is no such constitutional right to counsel in a civil case, and therefore no such ground for appeal in a civil case.

I wonder how long until this press mold of Cheeto dust disguised as a human uses that last bit as a bragging point? He does like being the most and greatest quite often.

SapphironZA, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

Pretty soon Trump would have had more lawyers than he has voters.

Treczoks,

Not if the word gets around how badly he pays them.

Bluefalcon, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

Expect her to complain about pay in two weeks. Trump will hire a"better lawyer" and the appeal will go wonderfully. He will tank it just like all of his cases. In the past he would get away with stuff but do to the publicity he is finally getting punished.

Does (sic) stand for “spelling is crappy”?

fine_sandy_bottom,

IDK what it stands for, but it’s used where theres a mistake in a quote. It’s the journalist saying “yes I know that’s wrong but that’s what the person reallg wrote”.

I’ve heard that if you’re nice to a journalist they’ll tidy up minor issues like that, but if they don’t like you they’ll leave it incorrect and give you a [sic]

tipicaldik,

yes I know that’s wrong but that’s what the person reallg (sic) wrote

like that? ;)

superduperenigma,

It’s short for “sic erat scriptum” which is Latin for “thus it was written”

jordanlund,
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

(sic) is the abbreviation for the Latin phrase “sic erat scriptum” or “thus was it written”.

It’s used when quoting someone who made an error and you are quoting them verbatim. It’s to let you’re audience know that YOU know better, but the quoted source does not.

Example:

“It’s to let you’re (sic) audience know that YOU know better.”

aStonedSanta,

Thank you for this. Always wondered about this but never asked.

Tristaniopsis,

Yo dude, that’s sic.

Lol

Kraven_the_Hunter, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

For someone who famously is too scared to fire anyone in person, I wonder how true this is. It’s far more likely that Habbas is no longer under the illusion that there’s a paycheck waiting for her and it’s being spun as “fired/dumped” for the delicate man-baby’s fragile little ego.

He doesn't like to lose because he doesn't have the maturity to admit when he's lost. The only thing he'll probably admit to losing is when he faces the reaper that'll drag his fat ass to a spot in hell.

ShadowRam, to politics in "CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers

LOL did they dial up the orange on that photo?

Because I didn't think he could go anymore Oompa Loompa, but damn.

fmstrat,
