Now he’s threatening me with JAIL, & THEY HAVE NO CASE

I thought this shithead was ready to go to jail for ~~speaking his mind~~ committing multiple contempts of court. I guess that's not the case when it's not him talking.

Merchan ruled as court began that Daniels can testify about her alleged sexual encounter with Trump and “how she felt about it,” but that he didn’t want to hear any of the nitty-gritty regarding the alleged affair with Daniels. We don’t need to know the details of intercourse,” Merchan said. Prosecutors assured the court that Daniels would not be describing “genitalia” in her testimony, ensuring the jury would not be subjected to another mushroom-comparison session.

Anyone else notice the closing parentheses but no opening paren? Again, I'm sick of not having proper copy-editors in journalism!

Look, I'm just gonna say what no one else is brave enough to say: he's awesome, let's elect him again, it's ok when he breaks the law. Fucking pig.
