Legal AF: Trump BEGS DOJ to SAVE HIM as He's FORCED to PAY!!!




May 7, 2026 The Intersection with Michael Popok

In breaking news, Trump has instructed his DOJ to file a new filing with the Supreme Court in an effort to have them declare that, although he is an adjudged sex abuser by a federal jury, he was acting in the course of scope of his duties as President when they also ruled he defamed her and ordered him to pay her $83.5 million. Popok explains that if successful, Trump would have to convince the Supremes that defaming his sex abuse victim is just part of the job!

Considering he did it before he was president so there is no way it falls under his duties as president.
