“CNN’s Kara Scannell describes Donald Trump’s demeanor in court as his criminal hush money trial gets underway.”

From CNN

This might sound harsh. Well, perhaps just to supporters of Donald J. Trump. And I don’t want to compare Mr. Trump to any real-life dictator, because that might actually be too harsh. But imagine a dictator whose been in power for 20 years for all sorts of reasons. And the new democratically elected government that comes to power decides to prosecute the former dictator of their country. I don’t pretend to be a mindreader and I’ve never even met Donald J. Trump in real-life. But I’m guessing from everything that I know about this man, that must be how he’s feeling right now and what he’s going through.

When Donald Trump because President of the United States in 2017, he must have felt he would be untouchable for the rest of his life. He even flirted with the idea of running for President a 3rd time, at least if he was reelected in 2020. And just staying on as President after his lost in 2020 and his term expired in January 2021. And the only reason that didn’t happen, is because the government simply wouldn’t allow for it. Once your term expires in our government, you are out of office. And you either leave your office and the building voluntarily, or you are escorted out by Federal officials.

But because of our great, federal, liberal democratic, constitutional system that we have in America, no one man or woman is above the law in this country. You commit felonies in this country, you get charged and prosecuted for them and then later brought to trial. Unless you work out a plea bargain with the prosecution or plead guilty.

So right now in that Manhattan court room, Donald J. Trump even though he was once President of the United States, is now being treated like any other criminal defendant in New York. And it must be a real humanizing experience for him.
