Comedy World Righteously Roasts Trump Over Gettysburg Gaffe

Authored by newrepublic.com and submitted by mountaintop111

Trump and his fellow Republicans may finally be realizing that even a former president is subject to the same laws and rules as every other criminal defendant. This is Trump’s first criminal trial, and he can’t expect to continue his life as normal while the trial is ongoing, even if that means less traveling around the country campaigning or celebrating. And he’s not completely restricted: Trump can still be on the campaign trail every weekend, evening, and Wednesday as long as the case continues.

The schedule of the trial, and how it conflicts with the other legal proceedings, can hardly be considered a constitutional question. In fact, it is in large part due to Trump’s legal strategy: repeatedly delaying proceedings as long as possible to hopefully push decisions about him until after Election Day, which might not even work out in his favor.

And it’s not the first time that Habba has seemingly failed to grasp important pieces of the law. During Trump’s defamation trial in January, she repeatedly failed to understand courtroom procedure and spoke out of turn, and was admonished by Judge Lewis Kaplan several times.

Robert E Lee was also never quoted as saying “never fight uphill me boys”

I think Trump might be thinking of Mr. Krabs?

I normally brush these things off, but he has gotten MUCH worse over the last couple months

Trump's Gettysburg speech reminds me when he said water is wet:

This is a tough hurricane, one of the wettest we’ve ever seen, from the standpoint of water.
