More bad news for Donald Trump
Donald Trump’s last few weeks have been among the worst of his life. And they got no better on Friday. This is because three judges determined that Donald Trump could be sued in Civil court over the January 6 attacks.
Trump had tried to say he was “immune” to civil litigation since he was President at the time of the J-6 attack. That strategy would never work, but it was all Donald Trump had. And now, with this ruling, he doesn’t even have that anymore.
Trump is facing an array of civil litigation from some members of Congress and also from some Capitol Police members themselves. Trump had tried to say that January 6 was all about him and his his effort to seek a second presidential term. He argued that it was part of his presidential duties. This is absurd.
“Your Honor, I cannot be sued for eating a hot dog while my super-fans were pooping on Capitol floors and hunting down my vice president. It’s part of my duties to let that happen!” What a joke Trump is. How could he think this would possibly work?
So with these rulings, yes, Trump can be sued, and it looks to me like he is about to spend as much time in Civil court as Criminal Court. Happy 2024, Donald! Looks like the upcoming year is shaping up to be a real doozy for you.
