The wife of the New York judge overseeing former President Trump’s ongoing civil fraud trial is the latest target of Trump’s rage online.

Trump took aim at Judge Arthur Engoron’s wife in a series of posts Tuesday afternoon, purporting that an account on X — formerly Twitter — that made several anti-Trump posts belongs to her.

    I get your sarcasm, but don’t think any judge would want to take that appeal. Why subject yourself or your colleagues to this kind of abuse. Not sure exactly how that whole process goes, but really doubt there’s any way all his bullshit works out to his benefit.

      What about maga-friendly judges?

      They could take the case, rule in trump’s favour, and get sweet sweet fascist cred.

        They’d be top of the Supreme Court Justice list the second Republicans gain the majority again

        Idk. You’d think even they would see how trump throws even close allies under the bus not even for cause but just to distract or get himself back in the news. Should be obvious, but maybe.

        The appellate courts are already shooting him down.

        Likely the Supreme Court would do the same, if the cases are accepted.

      I get your honesty. I’d love to be a fly on the wall in any of The Cheeto’s meetings with council, and hear the advice (or protestation) they’re giving him. I suppose we all just need to wait long enough - there have been and will be many personal narrative books published about this slow-moving train wreck.
