E. Jean Carroll’s defamation trial against former President Trump was postponed on Monday after a juror and one of Trump’s lawyers reported feeling ill
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan, who oversees the trial, announced in the courtroom he would postpone the trial for at least one day.
“We will take the day off,” Kaplan said.
Kaplan said one of the jurors reported feeling ill on his way into court, and he was sent home.
Alina Habba, one of Trump’s attorneys, said that she also was feeling ill on Monday and had recently been exposed to COVID-19 at a dinner with her parents.
Wait, the same people who have said for years that Covid is not that bad are now suddenly using it as an excuse to get out of their legal responsibilities? It’s almost like conservatives operate in bad faith.
And the irony is lost on most of them and their supporters.
Conservatives: “Irony?! Ain’t that women’s work?”
I don’t know, metallurgy has never been my forte.
Cognitive dissonance doesn’t work on those people.
irony? They see it as an excellent 5d chess move to use a “fake virus” as an excuse to delay their gods trial.
Minor note:
I think “their god’s judgement” sounds cooler
I always imagine them all working in a constant state of ignorance and lack of empathy.
FWIW there was also a juror sent home feeling unwell and possibly exposed to Covid. If it had just been Alina, the judge may have insisted that one of her associates continue the defense.
Alina Habba, one of Trump’s attorneys, said that she also was feeling ill on Monday and had recently been exposed to COVID-19 at a dinner with her parents.
And, knowing that, she went to court and exposed others.
There are so many reasons to disbar her, if not imprison her…
Alina is a liar. Test her!
Most useful contribution Alina Habba has made to the case so far…
Let’s hope his symptoms aren’t trivial.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump selects Alina Habba as his running mate. She’s exactly what he likes.
He’s considering Tucker Carlson. Probably others too, but think about that for a minute. What a pair.
