MSNBC guest melts down over judge slashing Trump's $454m bond payment: 'Private system of justice'
2024-03-26
[FoxNews] A guest on MSNBC Monday became infuriated by the judges' ruling in decreasing former President Trump's bond payment in the New York civil fraud case, and claimed Trump had his "own private system of justice."

Tristian Snell, the former New York assistant attorney general, was asked during MSNBC's "José Díaz-Balart Reports" about what the process might have looked like in a courtroom.

"Do we even need to ask? Honestly, this is so infuriating I don’t even know what to do. I don’t even know if I care what the process is that these judges are arriving at. Whatever it is, it’s flawed. I can tell you that much," Snell said. "This is a different process for this person. We have decided that he gets his own private court of justice.

"He has a private plane," he continued. "He has private clubs that he lives in. He basically has fashioned himself his own private militia to try to take over the Capitol. Now he’s getting his own private system of justice. This is an absolute travesty. It would not happen for anybody else, anybody else. It would be like, sorry, buddy, you lost. Pay up. For him, he gets his own set of rules."

Snell was also asked about how the judge arrived at the decision legally, and argued bluntly that it was a "gross miscarriage of justice."

Trump has never had the scrutiny of the public stock market. Ever. Until now. Truth Social is an extremely high risk venture — both for him and for anyone crazy enough to invest in it.

#4  The Left clearly hates the Constitution. The Left worships power. They only have need of the 8th Amendment when it effects them not when it obstructs them.

Once again MSNBC clearly has indicated it has problems with the US Constitution and the Bill Of Right when it does not follow or benefit their political narrative and agenda.

Eg.
The 6th Amendment provides an individual accused of a crime, the right to a fair and speedy trial by a local and impartial jury.

The 8th Amendment protects people from having bail or fines set at an amount so high that it would be impossible pay.
