Terrified Trump Begs GOP To ‘Take Action’ And Help With His Fraud Trial During Manic 2 AM Rant

Perhaps sensing that he is on the cusp of being convicted for paying hush money to Stormy Daniels and interfering in the 2016 presidential election, disgraced former president Donald Trump begged congressional Republicans to “step in” and “take action” to save him from the consequences of his crimes.

Posting on his failing Truth Social site at 2 a.m. Wednesday morning, Trump’s fear was palpable.

“We have a Rigged Judge, who is working for the Democrat Party and refuses to terminate this ‘case,’ which should have never been brought by Soft on Crime Alvin Bragg,”

“Judge [Juan] Merchan should be immediately removed, and the Appellate Courts have to take over. That also applies to Corrupt Judge [Arthur] Engoron, who knew I did nothing wrong, and still fraudulently fined me $500 Million Dollars while having no knowledge of Valuation, Finance, or in any way what he was doing. Same with Judge Kaplan, who allowed a woman, who I have never met (celebrity photo line does not count!), and know nothing about, to get a lawless judgment of $90 Million Dollars. New York Justice is in shambles, and only the Appellate Courts can save it.”

Trump was far from finished, however, adding, “A Republican doesn’t stand a chance. This is not Justice.”

“This New York Cabal, run by Crooked Joe Biden’s White House, is a hit job on a Political Opponent the likes of which the USA has never seen before. For the Good of our Country, it must be stopped. The Crooked Joe Biden Witch Hunts have to be ended. REPUBLICANS IN WASHINGTON MUST TAKE ACTION!”

It’s unclear what exactly Trump thinks members of Congress could possibly do to protect him since the New York court system is not answerable to any Washington political figure. But the online ranting from the failed ex-president suggests he’s incredibly scared and can sense that the trial is slipping away from him as his overwhelmed attorneys try one desperate legal tactic after another, with each one failing.

If he’s convicted in Manhattan, Trump could face prison time, The Independent reports.

“Should Mr Trump ultimately be found guilty, he could theoretically face more than a decade in prison, according to CNN chief legal analyst Laura Coates, who points out that the felony counts against Mr Trump are classified as Class E crimes in New York, which are the lowest level felonies in the state.”

“The maximum sentence for each count is four years in prison, which would add up to 136 years behind bars, but as Ms Coates explains, New York imposes a 20-year sentencing cap for this type of offence, with a decision on whether the sentences run concurrently or consecutively left up to the judge.”

20 years in a New York prison? No wonder the 77-year-old is so scared. 20 years would mean he’d likely die while incarcerated.

Oh, well, as the old saying goes, Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.

MSNBC Panel Mocks Trump’s Attorney For Referring To Him As A ‘Family Man’

Attorneys for disgraced former president Donald Trump are already attempting to portray their client as something he isn’t and never will be: A kind, decent man who loves his family and would never do anything to hurt them.

Such a characterization of the ex-president elicited laughter and mockery during a panel discussion on MSNBC earlier this morning.

Former Missouri Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill couldn’t help but laugh at such a portrait of Trump.

“The prosecutors did an opening that was a very strong narrative, a timeline, promising hard evidence, corroboration, phone records, documents, in addition to witnesses,” McCaskill said. “The defense, what did they do? They said Donald Trump is a family man.”

“Seriously?” she added. “I mean, you know, the jury is going, wait a minute, I think he traded out lies like he changed his shirts, he committed adultery all through his life. These are New York juries, they’ve seen the press for decades about the fact that he’s not a family man. Where was Melania? How do you have a criminal trial with sexual conduct as the essence of the case in so many ways and not have your wife there, then stand up and say you’re a family man?”

The defense’s opening statement, McCaskill warned, will come back to haunt Trump and his lawyers, if only because it sounds like it was penned by Donald himself.

“They went on to say that he did nothing wrong, he did nothing wrong — his business was perfect,” she said. “He was a great businessman, he did nothing wrong. A smart defense attorney, you have a normal client, would have stood up and said, ‘Hey, you know, he’s made some mistakes, but this is not a felony.’ That’s what a smart defense attorney would have done if he had a client that would let him do that. Unfortunately, these defense attorneys can’t do that because Trump won’t let them. They have got to say he’s perfect. They’ve got to lie just like Michael Cohen did for him.”

Donald Trump is such a wonderful “family man” that he’s been married three times and cheated on every one of his wives. It has also been reported that he may have one or more illegitimate children from his sexual dalliances over the years.

The very last thing Donald Trump will ever be is a family man. He’s a serial adulterer who only cares about his own satisfaction.

‘Dark Brandon’ Taunts Lauren Boebert As Her Reelection Campaign Falls Apart

President Joe Biden managed to taunt, troll, and mock Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) with just two words when asked about how poorly her reelection campaign is going.

Jordy Meiselas of Meidas Touch Network was speaking with the president and asked him about Boebert choosing not to run in her old congressional district shortly after Biden visited the area in 2023.

“Is that a coincidence or Dark Brandon at work?” Meiselas asked the president as he was campaigning in Pittsburgh.

“It’s classified,” Biden said with a laugh.

Ironically, despite switching districts, Boebert is lagging far behind her GOP rivals in her new “home.” A straw poll taken earlier this year showed her running a dismal fifth.

Adding to the congresswoman’s political woes are her own self-inflicted gaffes, including her ejection from a theater production of “Beetlejuice” for inappropriate behavior with her date and the recent arrest of her son who has been charged with trespassing and theft.

The president’s remark was met with widespread approval on social media.

Trump’s Advisers Believe He’ll Be Found Guilty In Hush Money Trial And It Will Sink His Campaign

With opening arguments beginning this morning in the hush money trial of former president Donald Trump, some of his top advisers have decided that a guilty verdict is a done deal. And they fear such a result would doom the fading chance Trump has of winning in the November election.

Maggie Haberman of the New York Times notes that there’s a sense of impending doom hanging over the Trump inner circle, if only because the ex-president is stuck in court for the next several weeks and therefore unable to effectively campaign.

Additionally, comments from prospective jurors make it painfully clear for Trump’s top advisers that a mistrial is not likely to happen because the evidence against Trump is overwhelming and he’s not a very sympathetic figure.

“Some of those opinions have been negative, with one potential juror made to read aloud her old social media posts blasting him as a sociopath and an egomaniac. The only times he has smiled have been when prospective jurors have referred to work of his that they have liked.

Haberman adds, “Many in Mr. Trump’s broader orbit are pessimistic about the case ending in a hung jury or a mistrial, and they see an outright acquittal as virtually impossible. They are bracing for him to be convicted, not because they cede the legal grounds, but because they think jurors in overwhelmingly Democratic Manhattan will be against the polarizing former president.”

Even if by some miracle Trump is found not guilty or somehow manages to skate on the charges against him, just the fact that he has to endure such a public humiliation could lead key voting blocs such as independents to write him off completely.

“… the shared sense among many of his advisers is that the process may damage him as much as a guilty verdict. The process, they believe, is its own punishment.”

Of course, the only person to blame for the current situation Trump finds himself in is Donald Trump. He allegedly committed the crimes he’s on trial for and should be treated the same as any defendant: Presumed innocent but punished if found guilty.

WATCH: Fox Host Maria Bartiromo Accuses MT Greene Of ‘Creating Chaos’ In Congress

Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo chastized Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for “creating chaos” in Congress when Greene appeared on “Sunday Morning Futures,” suggesting that she had no actual plan for how to oust Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA).

Bartiromo began by asking Greene, “You’re getting criticized on the left, on the right, in the media … a lot of people are criticizing you. And the reason that they are is because they’re saying that you’re creating drama during this election year. How is this leading to reelecting President Trump? How is this leading to the American people believing that the Republicans can govern? People are saying, ‘Look, she’s creating chaos. She’s making the entire party look like it’s disrupted.’ Your reaction and response to those criticisms?”

“Those that are calling this drama are the very people that are responsible for the drama that the American people are having to live through every single day,” Greene replied. “Those on the left, those on the right, the uniparty that’s in control of our government are the ones that have inflicted the American people with nearly $35 trillion in debt, ripped our border wide open.”

Greene said those criticizing her weren’t actually Americans.

“Yeah, those that are calling this drama are the very people that are responsible for the drama that the American people are having to live through every single day. Speaker Johnson refuses to use his power as Speaker of the House to do any type of negotiating to secure the southern border and stop the madness in our country.”

“The people criticizing me are not the American people,” she added. “The American people agree with me, and I’ve talked to them, and I’ve seen it all over. They are outraged.”

That led Bartiromo to inquire of Greene, “OK Congresswoman, you wanted Mike Johnson out,” Bartiromo said. “What is your alternative plan?”

“Our plan is this: We have to give the American people a reason to trust us and fight for us. The American people are supporting President Trump to be the next President of the United States because they’ve seen him in action. He fought against the Democrat agenda. He put America first. They desperately want him to lead this country again because they trust him and they know he will do that.

“Mike Johnson has betrayed America. He’s betrayed Republican voters. Under his leadership, he’s passed the Democrat agenda, passed the Biden administration’s policies, and fully funded them. We’re going to fight in Congress to do everything we can to stop this type of uniparty leadership. Mike Johnson’s speakership is over. He needs to do the right thing to resign and allow us to move forward in a controlled process. If he doesn’t do so, he will be vacated.”

The Fox host pushed back at Greene.

“With all due respect, you didn’t give me a plan for the speaker’s role,” Bartiromo said. “And again, does this mean you are going to file that motion at some point?”

Greene: “It’s coming, regardless of what Mike Johnson decides to do. And we have three more Republicans joining us for the special elections coming up very soon. So people need to know this can happen.”

Like all of the extreme right-wing bomb-throwers in Congress, Marjorie Taylor Greene has no actual ideas, no plans, and no understanding of how to govern. She just wants to promote herself and kiss Trump’s fat ass every chance she gets. She’s a cancer on the Congress and this country.
