If you needed any further proof that attorneys representing failed one-term, twice-impeached and thrice-indicted former president Donald Trump have absolutely no idea what they’re doing, consider the filing they made today in response to a request by Special Counsel Jack Smith for a protective order to prevent Trump from trying intimidate witnesses via social media postings.
According to the filing from Trump’s lawyers, President Joe Biden has taunted and trolled their client with a coffee mug.
“President Biden has … capitalized on the indictment, posting a thinly veiled reference to his administration’s prosecution of President Trump just hours before arraignment.”
But wait, it gets better. Again, quoting the filing from Trump’s attorneys:
https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1687120734793986048 (last accessed August 6, 2023); see also Kwan Wei Kevin Tan, Joe Biden appeared to throw major shade at a thrice-indicted Trump
with a new Dark Brandon meme, and Twitter loved it, Business Insider (August 3, 2023). Indeed, President Biden promised from the outset that his administration would ensure President Trump “does not become the next President again,” adding an unprecedented political dimension to this
prosecution. Remarks by President Biden in Press Conference (November 9, 2022). Moreover, the Biden Justice Department waited over two-and-a-half years to seek this indictment, during an election cycle in which President Trump is the leading candidate.
So now the legal team for Trump is afraid of Dark Brandon videos and memes. And yet they don’t see why it’s a big deal when their client posts on Truth Social, “If You Go After Me, I’m Coming After You.” Coffee mugs are bad, but threats are totally cool.
Sounds like Trump has exactly the attorneys he deserves because they’re just as incompetent as he is.
