The former president complained that his sentencing is set to take place days before the Republican National Convention
Donald Trump says he wants the Supreme Court to intervene in his upcoming sentencing on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
“The ‘Sentencing’ for not having done anything wrong will be, conveniently for the Fascists, 4 days before the Republican National Convention,” Trump wrote Sunday night on Truth Social, complaining that Judge Juan Merchan was an “‘Acting’ Local Judge, appointed by the Democrats, who is HIGHLY CONFLICTED” to “make a decision which will determine the future of our Nation.”
“The United States Supreme Court MUST DECIDE!” Trump added in an appeal to the nation’s highest court.
This guy is the whiniest fucking baby. How is it that so many “tough guys” in the States are such big fans of this weakass soft boy. He’s pathetic.
It’s really easy to avoid sentencing, I’ve done it all my life by following one simple rule: Don’t Do Crimes.
Don’t Do Crimes
Judges hate him for this one easy trick!
For Profit Prisons hate this one easy trick.
Because they see themselves in him and they are themselves weak and pathetic.
Don’t Do Crimes
Whoa, that sounds pretty radical there.
As much as Trump is obviously guilty as fuck, I’m not willing to adopt the “if you’ve done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear from the
copslaw” mentality.Nobody said anything about trusting the cops, lol

Yeah, sorry, I misunderstood this to mean, “not doing crimes == not being convicted”. Which sounded a lot like the “if you’re innocent, you have nothing to fear from the police” mentality.
All good! Sounds like we’re on the same page anyways
Weak ass broke bitch, he gonna be sucking dicks for 20’s. (unless it’s Putin, then it’s free)
It’s because they too are weak-ass soft boys.
no donny, cuz states rights 🤭
Nooo not like that!!!
Notice how Trump dilutes and distorts the meaning of words on purpose so they don’t hit as hard when used toward him. I find it terrifying that he’s openly calling everyone a fascist. He’s being honest about his true intentions, America.
When someone tells you who they are, believe them!!!
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
Talk is cheap. Actions mean a lot more.
He’s not even making an argument that would be anything like what the Supreme Court would hear. They pretty much never hear “I didn’t do it” arguments. In fact I’ve never heard of them hearing one. They hear “the law isn’t fair” arguments and if he wants to argue that they should, that sets a precedent that would make them have to hear a lot of “actually I didn’t do it” arguments from every two bit criminal on earth… I mean as long as the court actually cares about precedent or fairness… so when are they going to do the hearing?
Wouldn’t it be the NY Superior Court here and probably never make it to the actual US Supreme Court?
Technically the US supreme court can stick their dick in anything, there’s a legal option that allows them to just cut in whenever they feel like it.
There’s no regular appeals process that reaches the US federal supreme court for a New York state criminal case though.
As far as I know, the Supreme Court can’t get involved in a state matter until all appeals in that state have been resolved, and even then won’t take up the matter unless there is some connection to Federal law (and that connection was raised at some point in the trial by one of the parties).
But this court might invoke the ancient rite of “Because I said so” to justify letting Trump off the hook, I suppose.
I think the Florida Supreme Court was still dealing with Bush v Gore when the Supreme Court jumped in. Although, I guess that one did have a more direct relationship to Federal law. But it was 100% bullshit, regardless.
Ah yes, Bush v Gore. I’m fairly certain that Y2K is where our current shitty timeline diverged from the good one.
No, it was 2012. The mayans were totally right, it just wasn’t the sudden flip switch end of days people expected. :p
Personally, I blame the asshat that shot Bobby Kennedy.
That’s when the Matrix glitched out and now we’re all living in human battery hell.

A litigant who loses in a federal court of appeals, or in the highest court of a state, may file a petition for a “writ of certiorari,” which is a document asking the Supreme Court to review the case.
So yes, they can’t do it until all normal avenues are exhausted. I’m not sure it is required to have anything to do with federal law though.

This is only because how the process normally works. But if they really wanted to get involved there’s not really much that could stop them

Yeah, the Supreme Court has nothing to do with this case and can’t do anything about it.
I love his “I didn’t sleep with her but also the hush money I paid her was legal” thing he’s been doing. Astounding that his cultists are in so deep that works for them.
Once again: “the dying skeleton, Joe Biden, supreme commander of New York Stafe has outsmarted us once again” -Republicans, constantly
Ur-Fascism #8:
- Fascist societies rhetorically cast their enemies as “at the same time too strong and too weak”. On the one hand, fascists play up the power of certain disfavored elites to encourage in their followers a sense of grievance and humiliation. On the other hand, fascist leaders point to the decadence of those elites as proof of their ultimate feebleness in the face of an overwhelming popular will.
Hopefully they do not.
Can someone please explain to me why he keeps saying the judge is conflicted?
Because the judge isn’t bending over backwards to accommodate Trump’s every whim. That’s literally it. If he was, he’d be the best, most honest and fair judge our country has ever seen.
The judge’s daughter is a Democrat whose worked for Democratic campaigns in the past. An appeals panel already weighed in on it though and said it didn’t amount to a conflict worthy of recusal.

Meanwhile, his classified documents case being handled by a judge he appointed to the court is somehow not a conflict.
Because it is useful for him
It works in his favor to do so. If you think Trump ever thinks beyond that, you’d be wrong.
