Trump Civil Trial

It seems his lawyer (Alina Habba) forgot to sign the forms requesting a jury trial... 

Was it someone one here who was a trumper in disguise (maybe Canary Wharf?) insisting that the civil trial was definitely a waste of time with absolutely no chance of success, and that everyone knew serious this?

while I hate to let the facts get in the way of a good story (especially where diaper Donny is concerned) according to the NYT the law he’s being sued under requires a judge only trial

Yes. Am following.

It’s hilarious how bad she is.. she is telling the judge how he gets to speak to ‘her’ and even when he denies her requests she just keeps arguing the same issue. 

All the while  Trump is practically begging to be thrown out or in jail for contempt. He desperately wants to be able to use it in his propaganda… 

 

her performance plays well to a fox audience.

The trump legal team doesn't fear sanctions, neither they nor trump will be paying any of the bills, the suckers who respond to his beggging emails pay for it.

 

I suppose what Trump is looking for is anything to hang an appeal on, and anything to rile his base up for the donations.  However, I think he knows there's no way he's getting imprisoned for contempt so is just going to do what he likes.

I'm torn.  On the one hand, it's sensible not to play his silly little games.  On the other, I would bloody love to see him spend a few nights in jail until he apologises.  No hair spray or fake tan in jail.
