Although it would not be particularly venturesome to observe that the defendant&#8217;s attorneys presented a shallow and fact averse case, while the case of the prosecution was extraordinarily strong and well constructed. So much so that even Trump seemed confused about his status.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=61584\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UH-OH: Trump Just Admitted He\u2019s Guilty of Falsifying Records to Cover Up His Hush Money Payments<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the trial Trump has exhibited a measure of acute anxiety that could result in a substantial increase in his Adderall dosage. He has spent his days outside the courtroom whining about his victimhood and the perceived evil of his legal foes. And as further evidence that Trump is rattled by the potential of a guilty verdict, he used his hallway courthouse rant on Wednesday to make what appears to be a concession that he will be convicted&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I would say in listening to the charges from the judge who is very conflicted, and corrupt due to the confliction, very, very corrupt, Mother Teresa could not beat these charges. These charges are rigged. The whole thing is rigged. The whole country\u2019s a mess, between the borders and fake elections, and you have a trial like this where the judge is so conflicted he can\u2019t breathe.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Trump: Mother Teresa could not beat these charges <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ioxDIRC36l\">pic.twitter.com\/ioxDIRC36l<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Acyn (@Acyn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Acyn\/status\/1795843818061000716?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 29, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In this tantrum, Trump is imagining a perverse scenario where the revered Catholic nun and advocate for the poor, Mother Theresa, is on trial for paying off a porn star in order to cover up her depravity so as not to impact her public image. A totally normal fantasy, right? And he is concluding that even she wouldn&#8217;t get off. So then are his chances?<\/p>\n<p>Trump is, of course, right. Were Mother Theresa in the same legal quagmire as he is, with the same evidence against her, she almost certainly would not beat the charges. But more to the point, his assessment that anyone in that situation would be found to be guilty is a de facto admission that he believes a guilty verdict is in his own future.<\/p>\n<p>That pessimistic probability, however, doesn&#8217;t deter Trump from continuing his tedious assaults on the judge and the American justice system as a whole. He is laying the groundwork for his cult followers to become outraged and motivated to take extreme measures in retribution for his being held accountable for his crimes. It&#8217;s the courthouse version of the riots he incited at Congress on January 6, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats and other Americans who still believe in law and order, would surely be disappointed if Trump is acquitted (not likely), or if there is a hung jury (not impossible). But they will not resort to violence. The same cannot be said of Trump&#8217;s followers. And that&#8217;s reason enough to vote for President Biden in November, whatever the outcome of this trial. The alternative of an authoritarian regime headed by a sociopathic narcissist, and supported by a small army of hostile RedHatters, is just unthinkable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=61345\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump and Fox News are Priming the MAGA Cult for Devastating and Dangerous Disappointment<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=61613\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">HYPOCRISY UNCHAINED!
