The former president came off looking sad, old, and tired during his criminal trial—and it’s only just getting started.
Trump’s political impenetrability has always been rooted in his ability to puff himself up—much like a blowfish, covered in spikes that only the most loyal sycophants can avoid. He is notoriously allergic to apologizing, never owns up to his own mistakes, and often doubles down on the thing he’s done wrong.
This is why it shouldn’t be surprising to see him fight this week’s legal battle not only inside the courthouse but outside, playing the same victim card he’s used repeatedly—and successfully—with the media. “This is an assault on America. Nothing like this has ever happened before,” he said last week, delivering a statement that seemed nearly indistinguishable from those he delivered during his financial fraud and sexual abuse cases.
