Trump Files Another Lame Lawsuit Against the New York Attorney General Who He Hates and Fears

For most of Donald Trump’s public life he has been known as serially litigious. He uses the courts as a tool to intimidate and obstruct those with whom he has any disagreement whether legal, financial, political, or personal. For the most part it has only been effective when used against small businesses that he sought stiff. He has had much less success with it in the political realm.

Donald Trump Sweating

However, that doesn’t mean Trump hasn’t seen some benefit from his lawsuit frenzies. They have served to delay accountability by abusing the system with multiple filings and appeals. Never mind that those efforts generally end in failure for Trump.

Despite his record of repudiation by the courts, Trump persists in filing his pathetic and futile lawsuits. The latest one was filed on Wednesday against Letitia James, the Attorney General of New York. James is suing Trump for fraud related to his shady real estate business. So naturally, Trump is trying to evade accountability again with a legal distraction that has no chance of success.

Trump announced the filing Wednesday on his floundering social media scam, Truth Social, buried within a barrage of 72 mostly nauseatingly narcissistic posts the same day. Trump wrote that…

“Today, I filed a lawsuit in Florida State Circuit Court against the corrupt Attorney General of New York State, Letitia “Peekaboo” James. New York State is one of the most crime-ridden places on earth with murders, robberies, drug deals, and every other form of crime setting records on a weekly basis.”

First of all, it is ridiculous to file a lawsuit in Florida against the Attorney General New York. But that’s just the beginning of Trump’s foolishness. He repeats his infantile nickname for James (“Peekaboo”) for which no one can figure out the meaning. And he chastises James for not eliminating all crime in New York, which isn’t her job. In New York local district attorneys have jurisdiction over those matters, not the state Attorney General. But Trump wasn’t through. He went on to whine about being subjected to the law, like every other citizen…

“[James] attacks great and upstanding businesses which have done nothing wrong, like the very successful, job and tax producing Trump Organization that I have painstakingly built over a long period of years. Crooked and highly partisan James now thinks it is the business of the State of New York to go after my revocable trust and pry into my private estate plan, only to look for ways to recklessly injure me, my family, my businesses, and my tens of millions of supporters.”

Setting aside the fact that the Trump Organization is neither successful, nor a job creator, Trump is dismissing the abundance of evidence proving that he and his family have actually done a great deal of wrong. And it’s cute that he tries to reflect his own criminal behavior on his not-nearly millions of cult supporters, who are not the targets of James’ lawsuit. And he still had more to say…

“If I were not elected President of the United States, and now leading in the polls by substantial margins against both Democrats and Republicans, this would not be happening.”

Trump may be partly right about this. Had he not elevated himself in the public eye, he might have slithered by with his crimes, as he had done for many years before he ran for office. But his massive, yet fragile, ego drove him to put himself in legal jeopardy, believing that he is untouchable.

For her part, AG James replied to Trump’s filing by noting that Trump’s prior lawsuits have been laughed out of court. And she reiterated her that position that the New York Attorney General will not be intimidated or dissuaded by Trump’s impotent bluster…

“Multiple judges have dismissed Donald Trump’s baseless attempts to evade justice, and no number of lawsuits will deter us from pursuing this fraud. We sued Donald Trump because he committed extensive financial fraud. That fact hasn’t changed, and neither will our resolve to ensure that no matter how powerful or political one might be, no one is above the law.”

This lawsuit by Trump follows other recent efforts to evade accountability. But those efforts reeked of desperation and fear. For instance, when Trump was forced to give a deposition, he pleaded the Fifth Amendment more than 400 times. And in another bonehead play, Trump lashed out at the judge presiding over his case. All of which reveals just how tortured Trump is by these proceedings. He know he’s guilty, and has no recourse but to throw his feeble temper tantrums. and so he does.

UPDATE: Trump has dropped this lawsuit in order to avoid more sanctions for frivolous filings.

  1. So does Trump have lawyers who only give him terrible advice, or does he just make horrible decisions on his own & ignore the advice of his lawyers? My guess is that it’s a combination of both, but at some point, you’d think lawyers, even incompetent ones, would walk away from him & refuse to represent him.

    • Not to mention that mister arrogant asshole TUMP stiffs many of his attorneys by not paying them. It is interesting that his own attorneys haven’t sued him for non payment of their attorney’s fees. Or have they? If i was a wealthy person, i would sue TUMP myself, but i can’t afford that kind of thing. TUMP is the kind of person that would likely threaten an attorney with some outrageous claim if they didn’t represent him. He is just that vile and evil. Revenge for his enemies is his mantra….

  2. What makes me absolutely sick to the point of throwing up about “mister arrogant asshole” is his life history of “legal, financial, political, personal” lawsuits. Continually referring to himself and his followers as “patriots”. That ridiculous red hat with the inscription MAGA

    • Those ridiculous signs they carry and have on their podiums at their ” lie” rallies is the one that tells one of the most obvious of lies is the ” Save America” signs. Nothing could be further from the truth as that one. The real truth is if those signs would say, ” Destroy America” because that is really what they want to do. These evil and corrupt people, ( The GQP) are out to transform the United States of America into a dystopian Fascist, authoritarian, third world hellhole ruled by a Dictator like TUMP or some other crazed despot that could be worse than TUMP. Juss thinking about this makes me want to vomit.
      MAGA= Make America Go Authoritarian These hats are RED just like TUMP’s tacky ass ties are.

      • John, you’re so funny. I’m out here in the kitchen laughing my head off. Just hope my family doesn’t wander out here. They don’t like how extreme left I am.

        • I am glad you had a good laugh from that comment, now i am laughing about it and can’t stop…. I don’t have too much to worry about here at my house, my oldest son and my daughter live here with me and they are just as extreme left as i am… My youngest son is a different story, ( he doesn’t live with me) he is one of those TUMP lovers and when he was over here a few days ago i made him mad talking smack about TUMP and him and his wife left in a hurry… i felt like telling him, ” don’t let the door hit you in the ass” i have no tolerance for people who love TUMP, even my own son..
