Trump (perhaps even writing it himself) has had his DOJ file a political screed masquerading as a new motion filed with the wrong court, with the wrong judge, making the wrong arguments, and misstating the facts, about the current state of the ballroom construction project to try to further exploit the tragedy averted at the WHCD on Saturday. Popok explains why this is doomed to fail, as Trump’s filing reads like a late-night socia...
