The wife of the New York judge overseeing former President Trump’s ongoing civil fraud trial is the latest target of Trump’s rage online.
Trump took aim at Judge Arthur Engoron’s wife in a series of posts Tuesday afternoon, purporting that an account on X — formerly Twitter — that made several anti-Trump posts belongs to her.
Trump basically wants this judge to snap and or get really harsh with him. Even though the judge would 100% be in the right, Trump will use the harsh penalties as miscarriage of justice ammo in an appeals case.
IMHO, this guy needs to continue doing what he has mostly already done. Don’t take the bait.
Edit: typos
No appellate court would side with Trump. It’s for his base.
No sane court would. But the last president appointed some real kooks to a lot of courts.
I could see Trump trying to get an injunction against the ruling pending appeal. Even a sane court would need to allow time for discovery, arguments, etc. Any material (in the way of snark or comments from the judge could mean added delays. Trump would definitely slow walk the appeal as much as possible on the hope that he’ll get reelected and pull some nonsense to wriggle out of consequences.
The appellate courts are already shooting him down.
take the bate.
I think that’s what Louis C.K. said before he’d do what he did.
the 'bate?
the hash bate
4D chess. I didn’t realize that I can win a court case by insulting the judge and his family, and then appeal it and say, “See? The judge was prejudiced against me because I behaved like an asshole!”
I get your sarcasm, but don’t think any judge would want to take that appeal. Why subject yourself or your colleagues to this kind of abuse. Not sure exactly how that whole process goes, but really doubt there’s any way all his bullshit works out to his benefit.
I get your honesty. I’d love to be a fly on the wall in any of The Cheeto’s meetings with council, and hear the advice (or protestation) they’re giving him. I suppose we all just need to wait long enough - there have been and will be many personal narrative books published about this slow-moving train wreck.
Ladies and Gentlemen, our former president. A pussy bitch that only knows how to talk shit on the internet.
With this guy? Always has been.
“Judge Engoron’s Trump Hating wife, together with his very disturbed and angry law clerk, have taken over control of the New York State Witch Hunt Trial aimed at me, my family, and the Republican Party,” Trump wrote Wednesday in a Truth Social post.
Well, that’s not going to go well for his gag order …
A gag order has since been lifted. Whether it’s the one that would cover this, I have no bloody clue.
And frankly the fact, you even need to think about which gag order is in effect, is some peak trash reality TV drama. Which figures.
It was just reinstated, but probably just after he posted this
That was my takeaway. Also someone downvoted you, which seems kinda of pathetic.
37!?
In a row?
Hey you, get back here!
I have a hard time believing that someone innocent would do this.
If I were going off these posts alone, I would conclude that trump immediately violated the gag order today?
I mean it’s very believable…but I’m hoping it’s just weird timing of the posts and he stfu for at least a couple hours.
Probably not. The gag order is extremely narrow. It excludes Engoron himself and I don’t think his wife is court staff.
According to the article, Trump also posted that yesterday.
A new day and a new low for the Coward in Chief.

Both work.
He could shoot her in the middle of 5th avenue and the judge still wouldn’t enforce a gag order.
Won’t someone rid me of this turbulent judge?
Oh and don’t forget the wife.
And their little dog too
So he’s trying to tell the DC court of appeals that they should uphold his gag order. Good.
An important note:
“The Twitter account with the handel [sic] @dm_sminxs does not belong to me. I do not have a Twitter account. I have never posted any anti Trump messages,” she wrote in an email.
. . . the New York State Witch Hunt Trial aimed at me, my family, and the Republican Party,”
Madness. republiQans you sad, hateful jokes.
What’s the point of having legalised guns
Squirrels
Oh yeah forgot about them
Trump frumpy dump drump. I don’t know why anyone continues to care what he does or says or thinks. He’s the reason the “off” button on my TV remote is worn down to a nub. He simply is not a human with any conscience or consequence and I don’t know why he continues to plague our society, but I pretty much have buried him and moved on.
Because he was the President of the US and is STILL the frontrunner for 2024 Republican presidential nomination. There’s a very good chance that he becomes President again. There’s lot of reasons to pay attention to what a fascist seizing power is doing.
Unless of course someone is so privileged they never have to worry what far-right politicians are doing…
He was never president as far as I’m concerned and I’ve never given him any ounce of respect at all. He is the frontrunner for a sick Nazi mentality that wants to destroy everything this country was ever meant to be, and I have about as much interest in him as a I do in a dead flea. Even if he is elected again I shall never recognize him as being in any sort of power over me, no matter what.
I guess it’s true my family has some privilege (money wise) but being in a higher tax bracket doesn’t always mean we side with the wealthy but morally bankrupt side of politics.

Welp have fun in fantasy land.
I guess it’s true my family has some privilege
Noooo, really? No one could tell.
One of the biggest privileges I enjoy is not being a stinking turdball like people of your ilk. And I certainly do have fun in my fantasy land, more than you could ever dream. Have fun living amongst the cretins of the world - it’s a little better than what you deserve, but so be it.

Lol. Ok, boomer. It’s rare someone says something that fits that prompt so aptly.
When the fascists take over and you’re sitting there wondering “why is this happening?” remember your own foolishness. Or you might be marching with them? We’ll see.
I enjoy your anger over my statements, it makes me happy to know I get under your skin. One of the biggest privileges I enjoy is not being a stinking turdball like people of your ilk.
