Ummm...the Madman is commenting on a hearing and judge's questions in the Manafort case.

The judge has not ruled. A judge frequently will ask harsh questions of a side, and that fact doesn't necessarily mean he's planning to rule against that side.

Is it proper for a President to be commenting on an ongoing criminal matter?

Of course it's not. That question is rhetorical.

I'm surprised he didn't offer the judge a seat on the Supreme Court.

if the mueller team loses on this motion they'll be comforted to know that trump stepped right into the shit in a very public way today.
