I can't think of a single court case Trump has actually won in court in my life. Even in the USFL case he won , he lost, because the league went under and they won $1. Outside of that it's a lot of just failure and I just don't get what people see I'm this guy.

Eileen Cannon is working hard to deliver that win.

No lie told in this. She is putting in work to hide the fact he probably gave away classified information.

Sold. Not just gave away. Sold and Jared is keeping the $2B safe.

She was chosen by Trump when he knew full well he'd be committing these crimes.

The judge was randomly selected, it was 1 in 18 chance that it would be her if I'm not mistaken

He's "our only chance" to stop gays, transgenders and stoners from existing. That why bigots love him.

He’s had 4,095 court cases in his lifetime. He’s won about a quarter of them.

Roy Cohn is a fascinating figure in American politics. He helped send Ethel Rosenberg to the gas chamber as a Soviet spy, and assisted Joe McCarthy's witch hunts. He was one of the most expensive and hated lawyers in New York City, and he was Donald Trump's mentor. Cohn would always attack, because he felt that people would eventually just settle rather than keep the fight going.

Cohn was also a closeted gay man; when he was diagnosed with AIDS Donald Trump vanished from his life.
