Could you imagine President Trump being investigated by Congress?

He may think that he is still on the reality show.

Default Trump University judge to unseal documents after being insulted by The Donald

Quote:
The federal judge that Donald Trump lambasted in a Friday speech has ordered that a batch of Trump University documents be unsealed, Politico reported.

The documents, which Trump's lawyers have claimed constitute trade secrets, are from the program's "playbooks." The Washington Post filed a motion to make the documents public in light of Trump's presidential campaign.

In the order to unseal the documents, Judge Gonzalo Curiel acknowledged Trump's recent claims of bias against him, writing: "Defendant became the front-runner for the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential race, and has placed the integrity of these court proceedings at issue."

On Friday, Trump ranted against the judge, calling him "Mexican" and "a hater," and claiming that the judge is biased against him.

Oops. Don't call a guy from Indiana a Mexican, I guess.

If this is true and a payback, it's a gutless move by the judge. He needs to be booted.

Why? If Trump was sitting in his courtroom and he said this, he would have gotten slapped with a contempt of court charge and thrown in jail for a few days.

The 12-page order was filed yesterday. It's a complex and detailed document with many footnotes and specific citations, not something that was written on the fly. Trump's legal team would have known it was coming before it was released and before Trump made his speech.
So Trump's hissy fit was the result and not the cause of the order.

Once again, Trump is his own worst enemy........he just can not control himself. He never engages his brain before his mouth starts moving. That is going to be the true downfall of DT. I bet his advisors want to hang themselves.

Can you begin to imagine this man in talks with other world leaders ? He would create so much hostility , even with our allies, that it could do damage that might never be repaired entirely. The term "loose cannon" fits this man perfectly.

It should be noted that he did this BEFORE Trump started his rant. I put a link in the other thread on the University lawsuit when it happened.

He's extremely thin-skinned and Megyn Kelly said that he get angry, really angry, fairly easily.

Personally, I'm hoping Clinton will allow him to show this side of his personality during the debates.

Yep. So true. He is a pathetic fraud and a buffoon with no class, character or judgement.
