Nothing like a little courtroom drama to start off a Monday morning, right? Legal analysts are saying that Joe Tacopina filed his 18-page letter to the court at dawn Monday more in an attempt to lay the groundwork for an appeal rather than because he really thought he had grounds for a mistrial. Tacopina is trending on Twitter and people are sharing their favorite excerpts from this notable trial.
Say hello if you are applauding/admiring her intelligence, dignity and courage. ⚖️👏🏻❤️🩹
“You were supposedly raped?”Tacopina asked.
“Not 'supposedly,' I was raped.”
Carroll replied.Tacopina: “That's your version.”

Something you never want to hear from a federal judge – behavior putting you "in harm's way."
Per @KlasfeldReports, after being informed Eric had tweeted about him, Judge Kaplan warned Trump's lawyer Joe Tacopina the posts could put DJT and "conceivably" his son "in harm's way." pic.twitter.com/2nIMZGQtxL

This trial has been the proverbial $hit$how since it convened. This morning’s tactic has not endeared Joe Tacopina to the judge or to the jury.
It appears that Donald Trump may be losing the E. Jean Carroll rape and defamation trial before it has concluded, and his attorney, Joe Tacopina, isn't helping matters. The way he is questioning a potential sexual assault victim does not seem to be resonating well with the jury. pic.twitter.com/BoRRqXH4EJ

Trump attorney Joe Tacopina sent a letter to Judge Lewis Kaplan shortly before the cross-examination of E. Jean Carroll resumed in Manhattan federal court on Monday asking the court to grant a mistrial over the judge's "unfair and prejudicial rulings."

There are dozens of these if you care to go over to Twitter and read them.
All Tacopina’s gesture did was infuriate people and very likely served to prejudice the jury against him more than they may have already been.
If you care to read Tacopina’s paperwork, here you go.

” just keep thinking Butch, that’s what you’re good at”…the Sundance kid.
I wonder if Trump has paid him? If he hasn’t already gotten most, or better yet, all of his money, he’s not going to. Trump will be unhappy that he lost, which is what seems to be happening in front of our eyes.
” Boo Hoo, be a man”? Diapers has never been a man the first day of his totally worthless life. He either does not know how or knows how and wants to remain a whiny bitch. He’s pretty fucking stupid so I’m leaning to the first one but he’s such a whiny bitch that perhaps he likes the look.
Diaper Don and his lawyers are in trouble. Trump is not getting the result he hoped for in this case. Let’s hope it’s an omen for the rest of them.
Joey Taco didn’t recognize that “A Modest Proposal” is a reference to Swift’s satire, and he took it poorly when the judge *did* get it.
He’s a mob lawyer not a man of letters. Like Trumpty Dumpty.
“Worthless life” says it all. Trump is the absolute nadir in human being-dom. What’s it like to be the lowest form of human life?
