Good, it will save their lives and help produce a fair verdict.
Trump sees himself as a 90's monster. Threatening witnesses is totally his trademark. Not to mention sicing his more devout followers on them
You probably meant 90's mobster, but both fit I guess.
He’s more like a 70s monster… “and I would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for you meddling judges”.
Ruh-oh!
Swamp Thing was a 70s monster, too.
He'd fit right in with 'em.
Plus just libeling and slandering them. I'm beyond sick of his bullshit like calling prosecutors doing their jobs 'DERANGED'. Trump is a believer in 'repeat things enough times and they become true'. With his stupid nicknames and labels, we hear them so often that it comes to mind for me when I think of the person, even though I think whatever he said was incredibly stupid. The problem is the media dutifully amplifies his message... "Trump calls Jack Smith deranged! Deranged Jack Smith!"
Hmm, I did Nazi you mention who the pioneers of this particular propaganda technique were, and why Trump would use their tactics.
Huh, where could he have learned about that?

I never believed that story, because I'm not convinced Trump is literate enough to read such a book or to understand Hitler's oratory.
I bet he made Ivanka read it to him before bedtime.
Go watch old interviews of him from the '80s. He's half-senile now and he's always been an evil grifter, but he wasn't actually an idiot.
You know very well the names will leak, and you know very well this will ruin their lives and probably end them prematurely.
I would sit in jail for as long as necessary to avoid being on any of these juries.
Thank you for admitting your cowardice. I'd welcome the challenge of it, and be honored to be in the select group of people able to actually hold him accountable
