Trump calls the NY attorney general 'Letitia 'Peekaboo' James' and 'racist'

[867-5309.]

...Former President Donald Trump claimed — yet again — that New York Attorney General Letitia James is "racist," blasted her crime-fighting abilities, and called her "Peekaboo" in an angry rant on Truth Social after she filed a fraud lawsuit against him, his business and his three eldest children.

"Another Witch Hunt by a racist Attorney General, Letitia James, who failed in her run for Governor, getting almost zero support from the public, and now is doing poorly against Law & Order A.G. candidate, highly respected Michael Henry," he wrote.

Dubbing her "Attorney General Letitia 'Peekaboo' James," Trump said she is "a total crime fighting disaster" who is spending time "fighting for very powerful and well represented banks and insurance companies, who were fully paid, made a lot of money, and never had a complaint about me..."...

7. Why even post this crap here?

You covered puke talking points real good with this one. We don't care what shit comes out of his mouth.

6. Speculation is that it was autocorrected from the slur nt

8. Betty Bowers' tweet:

When you type a nasty racist slur that starts with J and autocorrect changes it to "Peekaboo"

3. Funny he didn't call Merrick Garland racist

5. The banks may not have had a complaint against Trump...they just refused to loan to him.

There are more ways than one to complain, Donnie. Think about that.

9. I dunno... we stopped calling people names around the fifth grade or so.

I guess tfg never got beyond that mental age.

10. you still only "guess"?

[grumpyduck]

13. LOL nt

[Retrograde]

11. What he may call her

"Ms James", "Letitia James", "Attorney General James", "Attorney General", "Madam Attorney General", even "James", and that's about it. Maybe "Letitia" in a social settings. She's referred to as "Tish" sometimes on DU, but I think that's being affectionate and well-meaning.

"Peekaboo" sounds like he's trying to come up with a new slur and failing (or autocorrect got in the way).

[Retrograde]

12. "who were fully paid"

Hah! He admits - in his transparent Trumpian way - that he stiffed the banks!

"fighting for very powerful and well represented banks and insurance companies, who were fully paid, made a lot of money, and never had a complaint about me..."

Reminder to all of the GOP: corporations are people, too. So of course James could be fighting for them. I think she's actually fighting for the people of New York, who were subject to higher taxes and reduced services since Donnie didn't pay.
