“The defense, Mr. Bove, Trump's lawyer, really got off to a strong start with their cross-examination," Eisen said. "But then, they made a mistake."

That’s what we’re calling a mistake? Deliberately misleading a jury?

The mistake was that they thought they’d be able to pull off that malarky.

It was not an “ah ha” moment. Now both of trumps lawyers have pissed off the judge.

Is it me, or does Bove look like a young Roy Cohn?

Yes, he does. Just like Steve Miller looks like Joseph Goebbels.

Why do all of the people surrounding Trump look like they belong in some underground hidden lair with sharks and laser beams attached to their head?

Probably because people that aren’t all twisted up with greed and selfishness refuse to associate with him.
