That, of course, would be Donald Trump, in the course of 3 1/2 hours on the witness stand on Monday, doing what he does best. Lie, whine, and lash out at judge Arthur Engoron and NY Attorney General Letitia James while on the stand. Attorneys Alina Habba-Dabba-Doo and Christopher Kise ignored Engoron's requests to restrain their client, so Trump continued with the tantrum.
You're doing this to yourself, Diaper Don, and it's a long time in coming! What Habba & Kise are forgetting is that this is not a jury trial (you can thank Habba for that oversight), but a matter where Engoron will decide how much exactly Trump has to pony up for his fraudulent financial assessments to banks, the better to enrich himself, of course. The public tantrums in the courtroom and before the press are for the benefit of his low information base.
By the end of the session on Monday, Trump and his ambulance chasers were threatening to motion for a mistrial. That ain't happening. Ivanka will testify tomorrow, and that may be the final nail in the coffin. Trump is not the fighter his base thinks he is after 8 years of non-stop Munchausen-esque embellishments of his accomplishments.
And, then, you had Habba going on Newsnacks and whining about how she, along with Kise & Trump, were treated in the courtroom. We all know who's driving the bus here. Trump won't take legitimate legal advice. The Unstable Genius is melting down before the whole world, and we won't be surprised if he is not the GOP nominee next year. He'll have himself to blame, but he'll deflect as usual, because he was taught to never be held accountable or responsible. However.......
