Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Why they still post his pictures where he looks like a superstar while he is a desperate salesman past his prime. On articles ridiculing him, nothing less.
Or... what? They'll indite him again? Him and his dumb fuck supporters wear it as a badge of honor...
Introduce it into evidence. Or maybe he would run off his mouth and land himself afoul of the other judge's order not to threaten anyone involved in the case.
Just let him do it. It’ll be quite hilarious.
And in his almighty hamberders and covfefe logic, Trumpty Dumpty will ofc disregard his lawyers' advice.
I hope he does it. When do we start to see him throw other people under the bus? "Jim Jordan suggested it".
I would love to watch him throw Jim Jordan under the bus. Any bus will do.
Could also be setting up a "My lawyers are stopping me from sharing the evidence that will exonerate me" excuse to cover for not actually having anything.
Boo let him talk! XD
I'm sure he will listen.
But if he does that how will he tell everyone his side of the story?
He should do it
Lol, it's probably full of data stolen from the voting machines his crew broke into. Gonna be a legendary self-takedown. Can't wait to watch it
I think the lawyers feel the need to do this publicly, whether they’re sincere or not, to avoid any accusations of “he didn’t have a proper defense” or “how could they let him do that?!?!!”.
So they’re proclaiming -loudly- that “no btw we told him it was bad but he didn’t listen”…whether they actually care if he does it or not because they know what a shitshow this all is and that it won’t end well for anyone involved.
Your client flagrantly ignoring your advice repeatedly to their own detriment is grounds to stop representing them, I think. You can't just throw up your hands once you agree to take a case but this might be good enough for a judge to let them do that. I don't think it will work but it will be interesting to see how his legal team(s) handle what comes next.
"Look, everyone knows the SICK Georgia DOJ is corrupt, and the election was totally, totally rigged and the most corrupt in history. Everyone says so, and I have such uge piles of PROOF, many many folders, but my lawyers - and they are the very, very best lawyers...they want me to wait for my press conference, which by the way will be the most important press conference any president has ever given ever, for a few days, maybe next week. I dunno, maybe I'll give it anyway, because nobody knows the law better than I do, and my PATRIOTS will stand with me against the dirty RIGGERS, and we will MAKE AMERICA GREAT again!"
