Michael Cohen calls Trump a "petulant man child" in response to Truth Social attack

Donald Trump is currently being held under the guidelines of a gag order issued by Judge Juan Merchan, which prohibits "making or directing others to make public statements about known or reasonably foreseeable witnesses concerning their potential participation in the investigation or in this criminal proceeding."
But days before his New York criminal trial, he seems to have done just that.
In a post to Truth Social on Saturday, Trump writes, "Has Mark POMERANTZ been prosecuted for his terrible acts in and out of the D.A.s Office. Has disgraced attorney and felon Michael Cohen been prosecuted for LYING? Only TRUMP people get prosecuted by this Judge and these thugs! A dark day for our Country. MAGA2024!!!"
Cohen, Trump's former attorney and a key witness in his upcoming hush money trial, fired-back at Trump's attack with his own post to social media, writing, "When does enough become enough and the petulant man child gets a time out in lockup for his bad behavior?"

(230 posts)TSF's personality would die quickly _ALONE_ in a jail cell, no one else there, no cellphone, no radio, no TV, just it sitting there talking to no one and no one responding.
It would crush TSF.
Love It !!!

And he can have it back once he's demonstrated he knows how to use it responsibly.

(5,849 posts)I'm betting the first order of business tomorrow morning will be this. And you know he knows what he's doing. He somehow thinks this will delay things.
So go ahead, Judge Merchan. Slap a fine on him (which the idiot cult followers will happily pay), give him a warning, and get on with business.
I'd love to see him locked up but we all know it won't happen, especially on the first violation, and especially because he's trying to get locked up because he thinks it will halt the trial. Somebody needs to tell him his gag order violations won't stop the trial.
Wonder Why
