Trump further predicted that he will not be convicted on the federal charges stemming from the documents case. He also stressed that he would not accept a plea deal unless he was presented one “where they pay me some damages.”
Is this an attempt to set up an insanity defense?

No, Trump is just so narcissticly stupid that he genuinely believes he is right and that he is owed for the inconvenience of our governments attempt to treat him like a common citizen.
Bold statement considering that the prosecutors have boxes of evidence piled all the way up to to the chandeliers.
Everything Trump does is about money. No surprise he’d try to squeeze a couple bucks out of being indicted. If he is convicted, he’ll try to squeeze money out of that too.
I mean, at least he’s trying to take money from the government instead of his impoverished fanbase?
dang I guess kbin doesn’t display markdown gifs… either way, I believe we can rely on Trump to keep grifting his impoverished fanbase too
Charlatan gonna Charade. Dude is comedic gold if he wasn’t in a position of power.
bruh, in the u.s. we still live in a time when people of color are rightly scared to be gunned down during a simple traffic stop and this man can ask for some money after consciously leaking our country’s secrets and safeguards. i really hope we can hold him to the law.
Nixon got $18 million and he thinks he’s entitled to the same. He mentioned it in an interview.
His estate got 18 million in the year 2000, six years after his death, as compensation for his siezed tapes and documents while in office. His presidency and resignation prompted the Presidential Records Act to be inacted. Since his records were taken before the Act was passed, the Supreme Court decided his estate was owed money.
His estate wanted $200 million, the DOJ was suggesting $2 million. They settled at $18M.
