Got ‘em!
This time is different!
Ooh, E. Jean is going to get some more damages from Trump:
I think Trump has a point here if his claim is accurate. What’s the rationale for the prosecution going last? Shouldn’t the prosecution present their case and then defense can respond?
In which Trump learns how trials work
Prosecution does present its case first.
He’s talking about the closing arguments which occur after both sides have presented their cases fully. At that point, no new facts are introduced.
I understand and I think the defense should have the last word.
The party with the burden of proof gets to go last, whether it’s criminal or civil.

Guess I gotta use my one time for a guilty verdict this week.
We all know it will be overturned and/or no significant legal consequences, I just want to see the MAGA tears.
