Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Or what? What consequences? Say it with your whole chest, pussy. Trump couldn't intimidate a paper bag holding his McDonald's.
Because if you say “we’re going to kidnap you” or something, that’s a legal threat but “maybe some consequences might happen” is deniable in court. The language is planned
He's BIG on that. Michael Cohen highlighted that strongly, that Trump uses mob-style coded language that he thinks gets through legal loopholes.
Remember his "perfect phone call?" Most people were confused, what did that even mean? What he meant was that he told Zelensky that he wanted him to help "Us," implying the country, and not the royal US, meaning him alone. That way, if anybody tried to bring it up, he could say, "I said "Us,"" and a judge would say "Oh, you scamp! You got me again, with your fancy word play! Case dismissed!"
That's why he kept screaming that it was a PERFECT call, and couldn't believe that we live in the real world, not his Sovereign Citizen fantasy world where he gets to create his own laws, and nobody was buying his ludicrous fool-proof defense.
He learned that nonsense from mob lawyer Roy Cohn, political mentor to both Trump and Roger Stone.
I know, but I'm sure you could get a threat out of Trump by ragebaiting him like this.
