This Trial Is Gonna' Get Messy. . .
The Trial of
DONALD J. TRUMP
As Viewed By
Most Americans
Judge: Mr. Trump, before I hear opening remarks, I will ask you how your chair is. Is it comfortable?
Trump: Hi Harry. You know, it really isn't. Might I ask for a different one? I have the name of a Swedish furniture maker who could make me an exquisite, custom-built chair in about six months. If we ordered one for me and each of my four attorneys, they could be ready in about two years.
Prosecution: Wait a damn minute. Why do we have to get him a special chair?
Judge: Yes, why is that, Mr. Trump?
Trump: Well, you see they make my chairs to fit my. . . um. . . rather large buttocks! I won't be comfy without one.
Judge: That seems acceptable. Will the prosecution and defense get together a week from next Monday and come up with a day for beginning of trial.
Trump's first attorney: As I'm looking at the date of the arrival of the chairs, we could possibly be ready in about two years from the date we hold our next meeting.
Trump's second attorney: Wait. . . I'm scheduled to speak at an off-season CPAC convention. Better move that about three weeks further out.
Judge: How does that sound to you, Donald?
Trump: Well. . . as I'm looking at party bookings at Mar-A-Largo, that would conflict with our swim party for the U.S. Supreme Court members and their wives. How about the following Monday?
Judge: Fine. Are we all in agreement with December 24th?
Prosecution: One minute, your honor. . . What December?
Judge: That would be 2025, assuming we are all still alive and our nation's Rule of Law is still this screwed-up.
Judge: Okay, we're adjourned for today. Let's hot-foot-it over to The Big Guy's Pub at Trump Plaza for a martini!
Trump: Or, we could jet down to Mar-A-Lago for a drinky-poo in my Private Jet? Maybe we could discuss the fake evidence they have against me.
Third Trump attorney: Wait. . . Do we really want to begin a trial the day before Christmas?
Judge: We'll talk about it on the plane.
