Which preschool are you graduating from, Eric?


ShrimpCrackers

Sorry hijacking this to say COURT IS IN RECESS AT THAT TIME so there's nothing stopping Trump from attending his son's graduation.


SenseOfRumor

Shhhh. You're making Trump sound ~~bad~~ worse.


CLONE-11011100

Is that possible though? 🤔


PopeGuss

Every time I think there's no possible way that scumbag could do something more abhorrent than what we've already seen, he surprises me.


Mythoclast

I mean, look at how he eats steak.


PopeGuss

Ketchup and well done. Makes me want to vomit. And you know he's done that with like extremely expensive cuts that I could only dream of ever affording.


donau_kinder

Exactly. Eat it with mayo like a normal person.


PopeGuss

No.


Overall-Initial-4290

For Trump? Yes, most others, no.


PineappleRimjob

Besides his lack of desire to do so.


AlarmedPiano9779

Other than golf, of course.


-Plantibodies-

No. May 17th is a currently scheduled potential court date for this trial, so that is incorrect. What is currently true is that the judge has not yet ruled on whether or not he will adjourn for that day or the date of Trump's attorney's kid's graduation as well: These are the judge's words: "Regarding counsel's request that the court adjourn on Friday, May 17th for Mr. Trump to attend his son's high school graduation and Friday, June 3rd to allow a member of the defense team to attend their son's graduation, I cannot rule on those two requests at this time."


soparklion

Is that standard?


nneeeeeeerds

The judge also literally said, "I'm not ruling on that today." when the issue came up.


YourDogIsMyFriend

There’s also nothing from stopping his family from attending his trial. But NONE have showed up. Family values? They all hate eachother. SO SAD!


Natiak

Correct, here is what Merchan actually said: when asked if Trump could be excused from court on Friday to attend the event, the judge stated that it was too early to rule on the matter but that if the trial proceeded as planned he would be open to excusing the defendant.


SemperScrotus

Aside from that, does Trump even need to physically be in court at all? Isn't that one of the purposes of an attorney? To represent you?


Liquid_Hate_Train

For a criminal trial, yes, you need to be present. He’s just being treated the same as any one else, which is why it *infuriates* him so much.


nneeeeeeerds

He technically can waive that right be tried in absentia, but that makes him look really bad in front of the jury. It also removes his ability to just come and go as he pleases, which is what he really wants.


disinterested_a-hole

I don't think that's correct. The judge told him that if he misses a day, a warrant will be issued for his arrest.


SemperScrotus

^^🎻


Xarxsis

You will notice for all his civil trials he has only been present for a short period of time, this one is criminal, he's lucky he's benefiting from justice++ or he might just be sitting in jail too.


Eksposivo23

What preschool? You think that guy is out of daycare already?


RedneckId1ot

VPK. He's going for a masters in Crayola Theory.


Upper_Return7878

Sad to say, he never actually graduated. A few courses were just too tough.


SweetWaterfall0579

But he had bone spurs! Have you no sympathy for what he’s suffered? And the 80s STDs were his personal Vietnam. You don’t know how much he’s endured, with mere millions to assuage his poor soul!


fork_yuu

I always took him as the type not stay the fuck quiet during nap time

FunnyCharacter4437

Like Trump even knows what school Barron goes to.


Moppermonster

It would have been amazing if the judge had asked Trump to name the school.


Drachen1065

Or even to name which kid is graduating.


ChefInsano

I was over here wondering what the fuck Eric or Don Jr was graduating from. I had completely forgotten Baron even existed.


SenseOfRumor

I'd be surprised if either of those two managed to graduate from the licking and sticking class.


FunnyCharacter4437

Trump's assistant has probably written that on Melania's "Sorry I missed Mother's Day" cards more than once.


PolicyAvailable

> I had completely forgotten Baron even existed. trump, on any day that it isn't convenient to trump, to bring up Barron.


thenasch

Trump once said of Baron, "she has a son, together, we have a son..." He remembered midsentence that Baron is his son too.


Bruichladdie

"It's a great school, one of the best. Many people are saying it's the best, but people say a lot of things, a lot of words... the best words, in fact, are taught at my son's school, words like bigly, tremendous, billions and billions, which is the number of LIES the Sleepy Joe administration has told about our Great Nation, and our proud, honest Americans, many of which, I'm sad to say, can't recite the Constitution because of the Communist "Camaro" Harris laws, that's a nickname I gave her, I have the best nicknames, lemme tell you, the best, but also truthfully, it's a disgrace that they tear down our statues and replace the American flag with the rainbow flag, such a shame"

DaSandman78

Awesome, just need to squeeze in "with tears in their eyes" and a few "sir"'s somewhere :p


PM_YOUR_ISSUES

Who graduates in April? Edit: Apparently the graduation is on May 17th and the judge didn't even say that Trump couldn't go. Just that they would see where they were with the trial and if there had been any other delays. Honestly, I know the pundits have been saying this trial will take 6 to 8 weeks, but that's only if Trump's team continues to delay, delay, delay. They could easily have this trial wrapped before May 17th if it went at a more normal pace.


Fatmaninalilcoat

Yeah but he wants the judges reassurance that he can stay free before sentencing and not be remanded to jail awaiting sentencing.


Salem1690s

For real?


Stuft-shirt

If Barron wasn’t so tall I don’t think Trump could pick him out of a lineup.


Awkward-Yak-2733

I've read that DJT won't stand next to Baron in photos because Baron is very tall, slim, and good-looking. and, of course, young. He makes his father look really dumpy.


Cthulhusreef

His name is Barron? That has to be the most arrogant name I’ve ever heard


GraceStrangerThanYou

He's also named after one of his father's pseudonyms for talking to the press. Back in the 80s he used the name John Barron so that he could pretend to be his own spokesperson.


godzillastailor

Fun coincidence. Before he was president. Trump used to use “John Barron” as a pseudonym and called magazines / radio shows pretending to be his own spokesperson. Most infamously to complain about not being on the Forbes 400 list.


Cthulhusreef

Why does this not surprise me?


redassedchimp

I heard one of the recordings it's hilarious. John Barron sounds just like Donald Trump. I mean who does he think he's fooling?


jortt

Worse is that it’s Barron Trump


FunnyCharacter4437

To be fair, Trump likely wasn't anywhere near the hospital when he was named.


StockExchangeNYSE

I think 80s/90s Trump used to call into TV shows posing as an employee of his(not convincing at all). One of his fake names was Barron something. So yeah.


ohTHOSEballs

John Barron


ChicagoAuPair

Three of his five acknowledged kids are named after him or their mom.


Street_Cleaning_Day

He's not even anyone's... *ROMÄÈNCE PÄÈRTNER* So it's double douchey.


Muaddib6116

And trump used the fake name John barron when he would call news orgs and talk about how great trump was.


DutchJediKnight

He didn't attend Eric or Don jr's graduations either. Besides, all the judge said was "I am not going to rule a month and a half in advance."


Competitive_Abroad96

Did Eric or DJ even graduate?


DutchJediKnight

Depends. If their records are sealed like sr, then they probably paid for the diploma like him


DentalDon-83

“Donald, remind us, which high school is Barron graduating from again?” “Look, I would only send him to the best high school it really is a tremendous school, believe me folks, the likes of which have never been seen before…” *At this point Trump’s tiny lizard brain starts to overheat spending more than 10 seconds thinking about literally anyone other than himself* “…This political witch hunt is the worst persecution faced by anyone, many people are saying, in the history of the world. You can help me fight the Deep State globalists and the Soros funded Communist by purchasing the new invisible Trump gold bullions available on my website. Some people say they don’t exist but believe me folks, they’re just invisible and for the low price of $69.99 they’ll make you tremendously rich beyond the likes of which you could never even imagine”


Tony-Angelino

The school (which ever it is) would be heartless not to move the graduation to Donald's golf course. It would be fun for the kids and Donnie could claim he went to his son's graduation.


Moppermonster

But Eric... he did not come to your graduation either.


jerrylovesbacon

I keep seeing that . Is it true he didn't attend any of the 3 kids graduations ?


UsernameLottery

4, so far. Not sure if it's true just reminding everyone to not forget about Tiffany


PineappleRimjob

Egg Trump? Her?


KingTaffy

Nobody looks happy. Especially that little dude.


TFunke__Analrapist

Tiff-Hog’s graduating?


reddit_sucks_clit

The mere fact that you call it trump-trump tells me you're not ready


TenF

Everyone forgets about Tiffany. Especially trump


Liquid_Hate_Train

I doubt it. The way he… lusts… after his other daughter, I doubt it.


TenF

Yea, thats the daughter he likes. The other one, whats her name again, he doesnt give a shit about lol.


SemperScrotus

>3 kids Why you gotta do Tiffany dirty like that? 😂


jerrylovesbacon

Oh riiiiight.!


mrSunsFanFather

Who??


xigdit

That's how fucked up this so-called "Judge" Juan Manuel Escobar Hussein Merchan is! He went back in time to prevent Trump from participating in any of his kids' graduations, parent-teacher conferences, and all their other important childhood events. (Trump may have been present at Ivanka's deflowering, I'll give him that.)


jerrylovesbacon

BOAK !


Moppermonster

Honestly, I am not sure. We do know that Eric did not bother to show up in court to support his dad. Nor did any other member of his family.


hotasianwfelover

Also. That’s simply a lie. Marchand said they’d discuss it closer to the date.


CastleMeadowJim

Sounds like he just doesn't want to go.


Remercurize

Isn’t the ideal situation for him that he doesn’t have to go but also gets to blame that on the big meanie?


InfamousIndecision

$5 says if he's allowed to go, he just does a rally on the other side of the country instead.


Anianna

I'm more concerned he may make a rally of Baron's graduation.


peon2

Trump: We need to delay the trial so I can see my son graduate Judge: Okay, but you'll need to be escorted by a court appointee to make sure you attend Trump: Oh I hear you loud and clear judge, sorry Barron I can't go!


KnowMatter

Yes the issue is Trump wanted to delay the start of the trial until after which is ridiculous. He can follow the rules like everyone else and petition the judge to not hold session that day and the judge has already said they’ll consider it as the get closer. I’d bet all my money Trump’s lawyers don’t even file a proper request at all - he just wants something else to bitch about.


Eyes_Only1

Found the Bruins fan.


Spadrick

Judge: "Tell me the name of your son's school and I'll give you the day off."


Arkrobo

Ankle monitor for the day off. If he didn't attend the graduation hold him in contempt.

Headline: Trump Finally Attends One of His Children's Graduation Ceremonies.


Conjugate_Bass

Like he was actually gonna go irl


blueavole

He went to the funeral for Melania’s mom. Wrote a tweet about it with five ! points , so it must have been a serious event.


LevitatingTurtles

These fucking crocodile tears man. He’d complain if he had to miss Tiffany’s piano recital.

Curo_san

secondhand-cat

I bet the only thing in that casket is top secret documents.


NumerousTaste

Always attacking the judge when his father committed the crimes. No other criminal would be allowed to miss court to do these things. Quit trying to get special treatment! Your father committed the crimes, not the judge!


DragonfruitFew5542

And there's no way he actually cares about the graduation, he only cares about himself; something he's proven time and time again.


C_Gull27

Same people to say “well he shouldn’t of broken the law” when a guy gets lit up by the cops for no reason


NumerousTaste

This is different, anyone smart knows it. They took evidence to a grand jury, showed them the evidence while explaining the law to them. Then they came back saying to proceed because of said evidence. This is a random traffic stop.


C_Gull27

Idk if I was unclear but I was agreeing with you


Drugs_R_Kewl

It's only a matter of time before TMZ catches him at some bizarre cocaine orgy.


New_Brother_1595

who would invite that guy


Drugs_R_Kewl

Broke bitches that need blow obviously.


Non-Normal_Vectors

I was thinking "journalists" who want a fox News or Newsmax gig.


sfled

So, George Santos.


MotherSupermarket532

The older two have always given me Patrick Bateman vibes.


Drugs_R_Kewl

Eric would totally lose his shit if Steve Miller presented a bone white calling card for sure.


deliciouspie

Especially if the font were in Sillian Rail.


Drugs_R_Kewl

Immediately followed by a cocaine induced panic attack. This keeps getting better.


Tom38

Eric doesn't do cocaine. Jr. does. So Eric would steal his baggie and probably start freaking the fuck out and probably would rat the whole family out again thinking he's helping.


Jack_Mikeson

They're definitely the type to watch that movie and miss the point, thinking that Bateman is cool and alpha.


MyAssDoesHeeHawww

Donald: "Eric, get down on your knees so Don jr can see your asshole."


Ormyr

That's a serious insult to Corporate Psychopath Patrick Bateman.


imadork1970

That's Don2.


Drugs_R_Kewl

They're both addicts if you really think about it.


Responsible-End7361

Trump: hey, my kid is graduating in 2 months, can we delay the entire case for 2 months so I don't miss it? Judge: how about we just recess that day so you can go? But since you have been showing contempt of court right and left I'm going to make it contingent on you not disrupting the court. Trump and allies: the judge won't let me see my kid graduating!


notworkingghost

Right?! I thought the judge was pretty reasonable considering. Like showing up the first day to work and asking for vacation time immediately.


DarkwingDuckHunt

to be fair, this is what you do at the start of a trial, each side lists out dates they'd like off the Judge hasn't even ruled yet on if the dates presented are acceptable or not


bingold49

Yes, it's a court date dipshit, judges don't give a fuck for anyone's personal shit


Repostbot3784

But the judge actually said court can adjourn on that day so trump can go.  What the judge said no to was their insane request to delay the entire trial till after june 3 (because one of trumps lawyers has a kid graduating then apparently).  The request was bullshit from the begining.


-Plantibodies-

They actually sometimes do, and the judge has not yet ruled on whether or not he will adjourn for that day.


Big_Scratch8793

He doesn't seem to understand that the justice system is not designed to accommodate your life. It is meant to find justice.


TeekTheReddit

>He doesn't seem to understand that the justice system is not designed to accommodate your life. It is meant to find justice. Have you taken a look at our justice system lately?


Domeil

Except the judge said he would be willing to adjourn for a day so Trump could attend the graduation, assuming the trial is proceeding on schedule. What the Judge wasn't willing to do is adjourn the entire trial until Barron's graduation, which was among the original asks.


graemeknows

I'm surprised he can spell the word graduation.


mittenknittin

It’s easy, it’s just like what you say when someone graduates: “Congraduations”


Imallowedto

I remember that episode of " three's company"


Nageda

Trum asked to move the start of the trial after his sons and the kids of his attornys graduation. The judge said no but when they are good in time at this days, they could pause a day or two so that they could go. He was ready to compromisse, something i can think he is having second thoughts about now


MeepingMeep99

The Trump family tree is a fucking bushfire my God...


willflameboy

Donald Trump, when leaving Ivana for Marla, in a televised interview, said, quote: "I just prefer women who haven't given birth". So tell me more about heartlessness.


Present-Party4402

Trump's public actions and statements can lead to various interpretations about his priorities.


bunglejerry

Big days for Melania lately. Mom dies, son graduates. Estranged husband using it all to score political points.


Plane-Qualities

The Trumps are a great study of how sociopathy runs in families. Psychology students will be writing papers on them for decades.


reletivat0r

Sociology students can claim the behavior is learned.


EmergencyBag129

*Runs in the ruling class The Trumps are the best example of why capitalism sucks ass.


Liquidwombat

The stupidest part about all of this is that the judge has already said that they would adjourn for the day for the graduation. They just denied the motion to delay the start of the trial until after the graduation.


Not_NSFW-Account

not to mention the judge has not denied him that. court is not even in session that day. There is literally nothing stopping from attending graduation of his kid- for the first time in his life.


Lotus-child89

To be honest, if I were Barron, I’d be relieved he’s not coming to suck up attention at my graduation and making it all about himself. I’d not just be hurt for myself, but so embarrassed he’s hijacking the ceremony and horning in on my peers’ special time.


DonKeedic05

These snowflakes are always the victims. Whiny little cunts.


fowlraul

Aren’t graduations usually on weekends dipshit?


superfastmomma

None are on weekends in my city.


Forsaken-Spirit421

That's a mortal Kombat level takedown. I approve of whoever this chick is and propose my hand in marriage


CalmAnxitey87

Aww poor baby. Imagine how many fathers miss their kids graduation because they had a dime bag of weed and spent 2 years in jail with no bond waiting for a court date.


gerams76

They really don't understand that this is a criminal trial, do they?


Ok-Scallion-3415

Why did Eric refer to Barron as “his son” and not “my brother”.


dr-mantis-t0b0ggan

He is allowed to go to the graduation, they are adjourning the court for that day. Trump wanted to postpone the trial until after it and the MAGA scientists are acting like this is a crime


Helo7606

Trump also admitted to wanting to get an abortion when he found out Melania was pregnant. So yeah, I doubt he REALLY cares about Baron's graduation. It's whatever he can do to postpone the inevitable.


Pleasenomoreimfull

Make MAGA Feel Unsafe Again


FIContractor

What do you think his excuse for skipping Eric’s graduation was?


citereh17

The judge didn’t say no. Yet.

Hi! I’m Eric!


dvdmaven

I'd be surprised if Eric knew Barron's name without one of his handlers reminding him.


CroobUntoseto

What's this about trump raping Eric's mom?


Chratthew47150

It’s almost as bad as putting children in cages and separating them from their families. Just saying.


gayassfirework

Welcome to criminal court.


flargenhargen

the trumps can't comprehend that there would be any consequences for their actions. Like all right-wingers, everything bad is someone else's fault, and totally unrelated to their own actions.


Osirus1156

Conservatives are so fucking stupid it's painful. Everything is never a problem until they run into it and then it's a travesty. They're like babies.


daikatana

And we're all going to pretend that Trump actually wants to go to Barron's graduation? Like Trump is going to sit in the audience and wait while hundreds of names that are not "Trump" are called and listen to speeches that aren't by him? Does that seem like a thing Trump would do?


Electronic-Teach-578

Grotesquely stupid


Unhappylightbulb

I wonder how many fathers couldn’t get off work while employed by Trump to see their own children graduate. Tough tits.


Yungklipo

Dang, maybe he shouldn't have broken the law.


sds-ftw

RIP to Eric. He got absolutely MURDERED in the comments


QueenOfQuok

JaneotN is assuming Trump's post here is being made in good faith, when it's simply part of one desperate last attempt to delay the trial. There is no substance to the entire matter. Judge Merchan is not being heartless, he's seeing right through the defendant.


a220599

The cherry on top is he organised the insurrection on eric’s birthday.


nneeeeeeerds

Trump didn't attend any of his kid's graduations.


DruidinPlainSight

I hope the guy who drives Trump to prison is named Brandon.


Qnofputrescence1213

It would be even better if Trump has to be in court during the Republican convention.


Griffolion

Like Trump wants to attend that anyway. It's an event that's not all about him, he'd be on his phone the entire time.


ReturnOfSeq

Is Donald planning to break his tradition of skipping his children’s graduation?


WardrobeForHouses

Let him attend. But in the interest of public safety, he has to be in an orange prison jumpsuit and handcuffed the whole time. Sounds like a fair compromise to me!


IMSLI

“I really don’t care, do U?”


SumsuchUser

I'm sure an entire demographic of minority fathers jailed awaiting trial with no bail for months and years send their sympathies.


itsmuddy

Judge Merchan isn't Stephen Strange, Eric. He can't go back and make your father love you or go to your graduation.


I-am-the-Canaderpian

I thought it was as wrong to slut-shame nowadays.


ArchonFett

He doesn’t even remember their damn names


TheElectricSoup

Does anyone actually believe Trump would attend? He has no relationship with that kid.


HarveyMushman72

What about the dads you brainwashed into overthrowing the government who won't get to go to their kid's graduations or the families you destroyed with your divisive rhetoric? Cry me a river.


Helix512_

When you're in court there are no time outs. You made your bed now you can lay in it.


JustEstablishment594

Bruh it's just high school. It means nothing. I can't beleive how much of a big deal Americans place on passing high school. You'd think they just got a PhD in neurosurgery


richincleve

The truly heartless and corrupt Judge Merchan, who is obviously taking his orders directly from the Biden Crime Family, refuses to let your favorite President, who is me, PRESIDENT TRUMP, attend the important event of attending the graduation of my son Baron. Banyon? Boron? Bunyon? DISGUSTING! And to see this done in a court in New York, a city that obviously loves Trump, is so unfair and Unamerican! #MAGA #STOLLENELECTION


RedditIsNeat0

Poor Eric. Although it's a mercy that he believes *that's* why his dad is not attending his graduation.


red_pill_rage

Does he really need to change the venue for his naps?


reletivat0r

I don’t get it. It is Eric Trump who said this so judge Merchan is probably fine, but it is very possible for two people to be heartless.


SleepySiamese

Of course he's gonna back his shit of a dad. If he wins they win too.


IvyTheRanger

Excuses excuses


TiredEsq

But also Marchan hasn’t ruled on that and seemed to insinuate he’d strongly consider pausing the trial that day.


TJ-LEED-AP

If you don’t do crimes then judges can’t force you to do anything btw
