President-elect Trump raged Saturday against the Manhattan judge who oversaw his criminal trial, calling the jurist “corrupt” in a Truth Social post.
“I never falsified business records. It is a fake, made up charge by a corrupt judge who is just doing the work of the Biden/Harris Injustice Department, an attack on their political opponent,” Trump began in a post first targeting Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan.
“A legal expense was called, on the books, a legal expense. There was nothing else it could have been called. This was the so-called falsifying of records. I was hiding nothing, everything was out in the open for all to see.”
Trump was convicted in May of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in connection to hush-money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
Merchan, whose daughter is a prominent Democratic consultant, raised eyebrows this week after saying he would proceed with Trump’s sentencing just 10 days before his inauguration as president of the United States.
Trump also called out “another corrupt Judge (overturned 5 times on my case alone, & the most overturned judge in New York!) valued Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach, Florida, at $18,000,000, when it is worth 50 to 100 times that amount.”
He was referring to Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur F. Engoron, who presided over Trump’s civil fraud trial in which he was ultimately ordered to pay half a billion dollars in fines. The case is currently being appealed.
Trump also apparently referred to writer E. Jean Carroll, calling her “the woman I never met,” who was awarded nearly $100 million in damages after accusing Trump of sexually assaulting her in a department store. Trump has vehemently denied the allegation.

And God is on Trump's side...and our side...all the way.
Team Biden is doing everything possible to try and get their licks in on Trump before inauguration, such as taunting him by giving “awards” to all the Democrat hit-squad minions, such as Cheney. Biden is absurdly writing all sorts of executive orders to try and block Trump. Really, I dare any scholar to find any president who has to mendaciously tried to stick it to an incoming president. What Biden is doing rises to level of maliciousness.
In that same effort, Merchan, the hack temporary “judge”, has made it his goal to try and besmirch Trump before he takes office, which has been the goal of the left. By the way, how much in additional fundraising has Merchan’s daughter continued to collect off of her corrupt father persecution of Trump?
I truly hope Trump’s DOJ does everything possible and allowed by law to totally knock that corrupt Merchan off his corrupt, arrogant perch.
Jon Levine rages at Trump in New York Post screed.
spit.
The word screed means..
A long, boring, or ranting piece of writing.
just in case jon doesnt know the word.
Trump was assigned to appear before gutter trasth, on charges brought by gutter trash.
It was so blatantly political it probably got Trump votes.
Trump can do Merchan appearance virtually...
Don’t say that; some prosecutor will charge Trump for not paying Merchan for political work on his behalf.
Spit
Will the gag order be lifted once he’s sentenced?
Trump could have had any woman. Barf, who would want that thing? The cover of one of her books, something about a dog in heat, is her bending over, uh...
“Trump can do Merchan appearance virtually...”
And what is your point? He still has to make an appearance before gutter trash, one way or another.
Can he wear his boxers and flip flops below waist level camera range?
“ Biden is absurdly writing all sorts of executive orders to try and block Truamp”
You don’t seriously believe “Joe Biden” is writing anything, do you?
