BREAKING: Donald Trump is dealt a crushing defeat as a New York judge rejects his claim to presidential immunity in the hush money case — hilariously pointing out that Trump waited too long to submit the claim.
And it gets even better...
Judge Juan Merchan decision knocks out one of Trump's major hopes for delaying his hush money trial, which is slated to begin on April 15th.
"Defendant’s motion is DENIED in its entirety as untimely. The Court declines to consider whether the doctrine of presidential immunity precludes the introduction of evidence of purported official presidential acts in a criminal proceeding," Merchan wrote.
Merchan has become Trump's favorite smear target in recent days despite a gag order, with the former president going so far as to attack the judge's innocent daughter.
A piece of advice: maybe don't insult a judge and his family when your future is in his hands.

BREAKING: The New York State Court of Appeals makes a horrible decision and rules that Donald Trump does NOT have to come up with the full $464 million to appeal his civil fraud trial.
Now, Trump has to come up with just $175 million for the bond.
Retweet if you oppose this ruling!
BREAKING: Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell just walked out of a closed-door meeting with Trumper Congressmen and announced that he is dropping his support for the Senate’s border bill that he helped craft — just three hours after giving a speech emphasizing the “importance” of passing it. WHEN WE SAY THAT MCCONNELL IS A SPINELESS COWARD, THIS IS WHAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT!
COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.
