Oh good lord.🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Via Katie Phang;

So at 11:00 a.m. ET, #Trump posts on Truth Social calling Judge Merchan's courtroom a "kangaroo court" and calling on Merchan to recuse himself. Trump also assails the gag order, (falsely) claiming that he cannot defend himself.

This while we await a ruling from Judge Merchan on Trump's 10 violations of the #GagOrder... #TrumpTrial #legal

Donald Trump just loves Hamas supporters like Erdogan.

NYTimes news alert, "President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey is addressing a sea of pro-Palestinian protesters in Istanbul with a scarf bearing the Palestinian and Turkish flags draped around his shoulders. He said in a televised address this week that “Hamas is not a terror organization,” calling it “an organization of liberation.”"

This is why his lawyers will never let him get on the stand during his trials...he'll tell on himself.
Give him a little silence to fill in and his eagerness to brag will bring up something incriminating.
His ego feeds off the attention no matter how damaging what he spits out is to himself.
