I'm gonna give him credit for three things of value he's contributed to society.

A. He brought the Fascist out of hiding. Better to know your enemy is at your doorstep than lying in wait.

B. He's made the dictionary much smaller by giving a single definition for so, so many words - narcassist, conman, grifter, selfish, demagogue, fool, sexist, racist, idiot, seditionist, violator, cheater... The list just keeps going. They should all just say "see Trumpism"

C. He's successfully rallied young Americans to be more engaged in voting than any previous generation, ensuring that if we can just get past this hurdle, the future can be bright.

[...] he would not accept a plea deal unless he was presented one "where they pay me some damages."

Saved you a click.

Bold statement considering that the prosecutors have boxes of evidence piled all the way up to to the chandeliers.

LMFAO! I broke the law so you have to pay me! This fucking carbuncle.

bruh, in the u.s. we still live in a time when people of color are rightly scared to be gunned down during a simple traffic stop and this man can ask for some money after consciously leaking our country's secrets and safeguards. i really hope we can hold him to the law.

No, Trump is just so narcissticly stupid that he genuinely believes he is right and that he is owed for the inconvenience of our governments attempt to treat him like a common citizen.

Charlatan gonna Charade. Dude is comedic gold if he wasn't in a position of power.

It's not an attempt at an insanity defense. He's just a moron and doesn't actually know how plea deals work.

This is a genuinely impressive level of boldness, only a peak narcissist could even manage to get those words out of their mouth.

Nixon got $18 million and he thinks he's entitled to the same. He mentioned it in an interview.

Everything Trump does is about money. No surprise he'd try to squeeze a couple bucks out of being indicted. If he is convicted, he'll try to squeeze money out of that too.

Is this an attempt to set up an insanity defense?

Ahaha, love it.

In all honesty, I think that's just trump's typical salesman bluster. Help reinforce the idea he didn't do anything wrong etc.

Kinda ballsy to ask for a payout when he's being hit with dozens of Espionage Act charges. Have fun, Donny!

Idk if that’s a prediction that he won’t be convicted. If he’s talking about taking any kind of plea, even this dumb “only if they pay me” thing, it’s still an admission that he would likely be convicted

I think Trump has prosecutor and prosecuted muddled up.

He does know its the Feds prosecuting him and not the other way round? right?

What a shitheal
