Donald Trump asked a judge to postpone his trial to travel for his mother-in-law’s funeral but failed to mention that he was scheduled to attend a campaign rally, too.
According to court documents reviewed by Business Insider, lawyers for Trump requested Friday that Judge Lewis Kaplan postpone the trial date for E. Jean Carroll’s defamation suit because of the sudden death of Amalija Knavs, the mother of his wife Melania Trump, last week. The trial was set to begin this Wednesday.
According to his attorney, Alina Habba, Trump could not attend the trial in New York on Wednesday and Thursday because he would be traveling to Florida to attend the funeral. Per the letter, Trump’s team asked that the trial be postponed until the following week.
Kaplan denied the request later on Friday, saying that while the court “offers its condolences” to the Trump family, the trial would continue as scheduled. Trump is not required to be at the trial, as Kaplan pointed out, but the former President had expressed interest in attending.
Then why the fuck did they ask to postpone the trial?
Oh, right.
So that maybe he can postpone consequences, until he gets elected.
Maybe, but I think more likely his lawyer is a fucking idiot as she has shown herself to be multiple times.
She’sa fucking idiot, who was trying to delay the trial with any dumb reason she could think of.
They’ve tried to delay all trials in all ways. They want them to back up and interrupt the next until the most important trials get pushed past the election.
Bingo!
