One.
So last week, Donald Trump's lawyers went in front of an appeals court begging them
to overturn all of the previous lower court's decisions that said that Donald Trump is not
immune from the civil lawsuits.
Stemming from the January 6th Capitol riot, Trump's lawyers went as far as to tell the
panel of judges that even if Donald Trump asked his supporters to go quote, burn Congress
down, he would still have immunity.
All right?
That is literally what this lawyer, uh, lawyer by the name of Jesse Banal had to say, like,
Trump can go out there, tell them to burn Congress down.
They could do it.
And guess what?
He's still immune.
You can't touch him because the president of the United States apparently can do whatever
the hell they want and they can convince people to do whatever the hell they want without
any repercussions according to Trump's own lawyers.
So let me read this.
This is from HuffPost asked by Chief Judge SRE Shrenavasan if a president would be immune
from lawsuits, even if he urged his supporters to intimidate citizens at polling stations
to prevent them from voting.
Banal said yes, while also admitting that such behavior would be horrible banal also
defended presidential civil immunity when Judge Greg KOAs asked about a president hypothetically
calling to burn Congress down banal noted however, that a president could theoretically
be subject to post-presidential presidency, criminal charges in such a case though, not
lawsuits.
Okay?
So this idiot lawyer, Jesse Banal when asked by the judges who clearly don't believe anything
he's saying, like, that's what I love about the lion of questioning here.
Um, the judges are like, yeah, we're not buying any of this, but we like how you're just digging
yourself in a hole.
But anyway, Beal's like, listen, you couldn't sue him for it.
Now you could press charges and you could throw 'em in jail for it if you wanted to.
Uhoh, okay, totally fine with that.
Let's go with Trump's lawyer's own plan.
We will drop the civil lawsuit and hit him with criminal charges instead.
How about that?
How about we do what his lawyer says we should do?
You know, why make him pay out a little bit of money when we could throw his in prison?
That is what Trump's dip lawyer just told the court from what I just read you.
Like he can say whatever he wants and you can't sue him.
You can arrest his though.
You can lock him away and throw away the key.
I'll help you do it, I guess.
Like what a moron, ladies and gentlemen.
If you have a lawyer that goes to court and argues that you should or could be criminally
Prosecuted instead of just sued, fire that lawyer on the spot right then and there and
get their outta court because things are not gonna go your way at all.
This might be the worst legal argument I've seen, and I know I've said that a dozen times
this year alone, all with Trump's lawyers, but they keep getting worse.
How do you find these people?
I have been going to legal conferences for two decades, right?
The best lawyers in the country, some of the best defense lawyers in the country too, not
just plaintiff's lawyers.
And, and I can't fathom how hard you actually have to look to find lawyers this bad.
It gets worse.
Banal insisted that a president would not be subject to civil litigation, even if it
was determined that the president was seeking to destroy our constitutional system.
So his lawyer, after basically arguing that, Hey, you could throw him in jail instead,
and we're cool with that, then says you can't sue him even if he dismantles the laws of
the United States, the laws of which the lawyer is also saying prevent you from being able
to sue him.
Hmm.
So if he dismantled all the laws, which would include the laws that say you can't sue him,
you still couldn't sue him even if there were no laws.
Um, listen, bud, Jesse, banal, I don't know where you went to law school, but you need
to go ahead and call them and ask for a refund of your tuition because clearly it was a waste
of time.
These are the worst legal arguments, no kidding, that I have ever seen.
And the worst part about me saying that is that I know probably a couple weeks from now
I'm gonna have to say it again because Trump's gonna find someone even dumber than this lawyer
to become his next defense attorney.
