So during a trial to decide damage amounts for previously made defamatory statements, you launch into a bunch of new defamatory statements?
Bold move cotton, we'll see how it plays out.
She can do this all decade long you stupid orange rapist. 5 Million. 20 Million. 100 Million. 300 Million. Keep it coming you idiot fuck.
If she's the one that breaks him we will finally have proof of the inmate goodness of the universe
"Inmate" lol
That's an amusing typo in this context.
He is banking on the publicity that making the additional defamatory statements will give him with his voting base. He is hoping that his re-election will at the very least stall all the proceedings against him, and he may even be able to quash some of them after re-election.
The more forceful he is at his defense, the more his supporters dig in. He doesn't care about defying the court, because he hopes to make the court irrelevant.
Unfortunately the more I read from the right the more disturbing it is. I find they want blood and punishment for all the things they find wrong and they don't want to have to deal with anything complicated again.
The most convenient lies will do and there is no use for courts as they are not extreme enough. Faces must be eaten. Sadly it will be some of theirs too.
Sadly? The more grifters go down the healthier the system is
That or he's hoping one of his supporters will assassinate out of stochasticiam
You dropped this: (again)
