Trump is melting in real time on Saturday, as the reality that he will be tried in Manhattan seems to hit him.
Trump posted on Truth Social:
Crooked Judge Juan Merchan won’t let me speak, he’s taking away my First Amendment rights, he’s PACKED me, because he doesn’t want the FACTS behind the Gag to come out. How many corrupt, biased, dishonest judges in Joe Biden’s New York “Protection Agency” do I have to put up with before someone takes action? I was dealing with New York federal judge Lewis Kaplan, a woman I had never met and had nothing to do with, until he sued me for “defamation.” She didn’t know what day, month or year it was supposed to be “An “accident” happened – She didn’t know anything. Kaplan, a friend of Hillary’s, didn’t even want to let my lawyers make an actual case, he made two cases instead of one, he took away my American right to defend myself and was a crazed bully while his wife and friends sat in the courthouse, every day in their little gated section, and cheered him on in awe. This mysterious lady, who said rape is sexy, received $91 million.
Then, of course, we have Arthur Engoron, a total lunatic, who determined that I should pay a “fine” of almost $500 million for having done nothing wrong (No victims, No harm, Ironclad disclaimer, ONLY SUCCESS!) , in fact, it was he who committed fraud when he purposely, under the direction of racist and corrupt AG Letitia James, undervalued Mar-a-Lago at $18 million dollars.

Now we have Merchan, who does not allow me to speak, thus violating the Law and the Constitution at the same time. This is so bad that he is trying to get away with it: how did he get picked for this case??? I heard he fought like crazy to get it, and so did everyone else! If this Partisan Hack wants to “jang” me for telling the open and obvious TRUTH, I will happily become a modern day Nelson Mandela – It will be my GREAT HONOR. We must save our country from these political agents masquerading as prosecutors and judges, and I am willing to sacrifice my freedom for this worthy cause. We are a failing nation, but on November 5th we will become a great nation again. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Trump thinks he is just like an imprisoned African civil rights leader who fought against apartheid for decades.
Donald Trump is ostensibly a civil rights leader fighting for a fraudster’s right to commit election crimes and attempt to overthrow democracy.
These two things are not the same.
Trump has denied going to trial.
He told the press he didn’t think the trial would take place: “I don’t know that you’ll have a trial. I don’t know how it’s possible to have a trial like this in the middle of an election, a presidential election. Again, this is a Biden trial. These are all Biden trials because Colangelo works for Biden. Can you imagine them taking a guy out of the Justice Department and putting him in the attorney general’s office and then in the Manhattan district attorney’s office to go after Trump? These are all Biden trials. I don’t know if you will have it. I think we’ll get some court rulings.â€
Trump received no ruling from the court and will be on trial in nine days.
Reality is setting in for the former president who, for the first time in his life, is about to be held accountable.
