'It's in print so believe it!' Internet roasts Trump after rambling paper-clutching rant

Source: raw story




Kathleen Culliton April 18, 2024 5:48PM ET



Former President Donald Trump's rambling speech about papers he claimed proved the hush money indictment against him was "ridiculous" was judged by those who viewed video to be ridiculous.

This assessment arrived moments after Trump shuffled out of Manhattan criminal court Thursday with a pile of printouts he said detailed supportive opinions from legal experts following his case.

"These are all stories from legal experts saying how this is not a case," Trump said. "The case is ridiculous."

"He literally just printed out his social media feed," replied @stelenj. "And he named like 3 people. Wow, 3 people who support you are saying you're innocent. Well, let's just throw the whole thing out then since Turley says so."

"Is he tired?" political commentator Molly Jong Fast wanted to know. "Is he sleepy?" .................................

The kommandant Colonel Klink used to comment to Sergeant Schultz that hitler’s new radio speeches sounded exactly the same as his old ones. That’s the same situation here… grump sounds exactly the same every time he opens his gaping maw.

When my parents were in their late 70s, I could count on three things when I visited:
The blinds would be closed,
Fox News would be on at a very high volume,
And it would be about 85 degrees in their house.

And I would give anything to be able to put up with that again one more time ❤️

He's showing his age, and whining like an OLD Person.

Maybe we could crowd source him a Parka from Goodwill. 🧥

I shouldn't laugh, tomorrow he will be selling some Burlington Coat Factory Irregulars as the Trump Persecuted Defendant Parka.

Charging like $169.
