Haberman reveals why Trump attacked judge and his family in speech | CNN Politics

In a shocking display of hostility, former President Donald Trump viciously attacked the judge who presided over his recent arraignment and personally criticized the judge's family. During a speech at his Mar-a-Lago resort last week, Trump unleashed a barrage of insults aimed directly at the judicial system.

According to CNN contributor Maggie Haberman, Trump's attacks on the judge were fueled by his desire to undermine public confidence in the justice system. Haberman argues that Trump is using this tactic as part of a broader effort to deflect attention from the serious allegations against him.

Trump's speech was marked by several instances of vitriolic language, including insults directed at the judge and his family. The former president claimed that the judge was "terrible" and made baseless accusations about the judge's personal life.

Haberman suggests that Trump's attacks are not only unacceptable but also damaging to the reputation of the judiciary. She argues that by attacking the judge, Trump is attempting to politicize the justice system and erode public trust in it.

Furthermore, Haberman notes that Trump's speech was a brazen display of his disdain for the rule of law. By launching a vicious attack on the judge and his family, Trump is sending a clear message that he will stop at nothing to avoid accountability for his actions.

Ultimately, Haberman concludes that Trump's behavior is a disturbing indication of the extent to which he is willing to go in order to maintain power and evade consequences.
 
Omg I'm lowkey shocked by what went down with Donald Trump ๐Ÿคฏ! Like, attacking a judge's personal life is just not okay, you know? ๐Ÿ˜ฌ He's basically saying that the law doesn't apply to him and it's so extra ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ. And honestly, who does he think he is? Trying to undermine public confidence in the justice system by being all aggressive and stuff? Not cool, Donald ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ. I mean, we get it, you're trying to deflect attention from your own drama but come on! You're not fooling anyone ๐Ÿ™„. This whole thing just reeks of desperation and entitlement. Like, no one likes a sore loser ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ. Anyway, I'm just glad the judge has some good people watching his back ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ.
 
omg can't believe trumps gonna keep acting like a toddler ๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿป this whole thing just gets more insane by the minute, i mean whats next he's gonna sue his own family members too? ๐Ÿคฃ and what is wrong with him thinking the judge is going to take one of his baseless insults seriously? newsflash donkey: judges dont care about your ego or your twitter fame ๐Ÿ™„. i'm just waiting for him to get held accountable for something, but i doubt that'll ever happen ๐Ÿ˜ด
 
OMG, I'm so sick of this dude ๐Ÿคฏ! He thinks it's okay to trash-talk a judge and his family on live TV? Like, what's next? Attacking the refs in a basketball game? ๐Ÿ˜‚ The guy is trying to undermine public confidence in the justice system, but really he's just showing us all how despicable he is. And don't even get me started on the whole "politicizing" thing - like, dude, you're already the president... can't you just follow the rules for once? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ It's like, Trump thinks he's above the law or something, but really he's just a sore loser who can't handle being held accountable. Newsflash, Donald: if you've done anything wrong, own up to it and apologize! But noooo, instead of taking responsibility, you're gonna lash out at anyone who gets in your way ๐Ÿ™„.
 
๐Ÿค” this is getting outta hand... all that vitriol from one guy is gonna make us question the whole system ๐Ÿšจ can't we just focus on the facts? seems like trump's trying to shift the blame, but honestly it's just lookin' bad for him ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
๐Ÿ™„ What's the deal with this guy? Can't even talk about someone without throwing shade at 'em. I get it, the justice system's gotta be held accountable but come on, personal attacks? He's trying to turn the whole thing into a circus. And what's with the family stuff? That's just low. I'm all for calling out bad judges or anything, but this is just ridiculous. It's like he thinks he's above the law or something. Newsflash, Donald: we're watching you and it's not gonna look good on your record if you keep going down this path. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
๐Ÿค• I'm getting the feeling we're heading down a dark path here... Remember when Trump was just a reality TV star? Who would've thought he'd become a president, let alone someone who's resorting to attacking judges and their families? It's like something out of a bad movie ๐ŸŽฅ. Newsflash: insults aren't gonna fly, Donald! The judge may not have sentenced you to time in prison just yet, but Trump's behavior is making it look more likely by the minute โฐ. And what's next? Will he be trashing the court system and everyone in it? It's like dรฉjร  vu all over again...
 
OMG ๐Ÿคฏ this guy is getting worse by the day ๐Ÿ™…โ€โ™‚๏ธ! I mean, attacking a judge's family? That's just low ๐Ÿšซ. He thinks he can just diss the system and people will be like "oh okay, cool" ๐Ÿ˜’? No way, dude ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ. This is a major red flag for our democracy ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ. We need to hold our leaders accountable and Trump is trying to do everything in his power to avoid that accountability ๐Ÿ”’. It's sad to see someone who's supposed to be a role model behaving like this ๐Ÿ˜”.
 
๐Ÿคฏ Trump's actions are just mind-boggling... I mean, who tries to attack a judge? Like, we get it, you're mad about whatever charges you're facing, but taking it out on an innocent person like that is just not cool. And personally criticizing their family? That's just low. ๐Ÿ˜’ It's all about trying to shift the focus away from his own mistakes and onto someone else. And honestly, it's a pretty sad reflection of how far he's willing to go to save himself. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ I don't know what kind of people you have to surround yourself with when you're as invested in not taking the fall as Trump seems to be... anyway, this whole thing just gives me the chills ๐Ÿ˜ณ
 
omg this guy's speech was literally disgusting ๐Ÿคฏ! i mean, attacking someone's family? that's just low ๐Ÿšซ. like, can't we all just respect each other's boundaries? the judge's job is to do their duty, not to be Trump's personal punching bag ๐Ÿ’ช. and haberman's right, this kind of thing only serves to further erode public trust in the justice system ๐Ÿค•. it's like, Trump thinks he can just insult his way out of accountability, but really he's just making a big mess for himself ๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ. i'm all about holding people in power accountable, but this is just over the top ๐Ÿ˜‚.
 
๐Ÿ˜• I don't think Trump's outburst was cool... I mean, can't we just talk about issues without getting personal? The judge did his job, and now Trump's trying to deflect from the allegations by attacking him and his family ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ. It's like he thinks we all forget that he's got some serious questions to answer about his actions. I get that people are upset, but a speech like that? ๐Ÿ™…โ€โ™‚๏ธ It just seems like more of the same old divisive politics... can't we strive for better than this? ๐Ÿ˜”
 
OMG ๐Ÿคฏ like what is going on with this guy Trump?! He's literally attacking the judge who's just doing their job? That's so not okay ๐Ÿ˜’. I mean I get that he's got a lot of beefs but come on, personal attacks? Low blow ๐Ÿ’”. And his speech was super unprofessional, I've seen high schoolers with more respect ๐Ÿ™„. This is all about him trying to deflect from the real issues and avoiding accountability, total drama queen behavior ๐Ÿคก. The judiciary is not the enemy, it's about upholding the law! ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ
 
Man, this is so messed up ๐Ÿคฏ! Trump's behavior towards that judge is completely uncalled for... I mean, who attacks someone like that in public? It's just another example of how out of touch Trump is with reality. He's trying to distract us from the real issues by going after the people who are supposed to be above politics - the judges. Newsflash, Donald: if you can't take criticism from a judge, then maybe you shouldn't be in a position where you're being held accountable for your actions ๐Ÿ™„. This is exactly why we need more checks and balances in place to prevent someone like Trump from getting away with this kind of behavior ๐Ÿ’ช
 
This is getting outta hand ๐Ÿคฏ! Trump thinks he can just attack a judge and his family on national TV and get away with it? That's not leadership, that's authoritarianism ๐Ÿ˜’. He's trying to strong-arm the judiciary into doing his bidding and erode public trust in the process. Newsflash, Donnie: if you're gonna play hardball, you've gotta play by the rules ๐Ÿคบโ€โ™‚๏ธ. The Constitution doesn't give you a free pass to trash-talk judges and their families just 'cause you don't like the outcome of your own trial ๐Ÿ˜ก. Trump's more concerned about his own image than doing what's right for America. He's gotta be held accountable for his actions, not coddled by a bunch of sycophants ๐Ÿคฅ. The question is, will the courts and law enforcement take action against him? Only time will tell โฐ
 
OMG ๐Ÿคฏ this guy is UNBELIEVABLE!!! I'm shocked he even has the guts to do this after all the drama he caused with Ukraine and Russia. The fact that he's targeting a judge's family is just Low. ๐Ÿ™„ What's next? Is he gonna attack the justice system itself? This isn't about the judge, it's about Trump trying to avoid accountability for his own mistakes. And honestly, I think people are starting to wake up to this and see him for who he really is - a master manipulator. The more he tries to attack the system, the more it backfires on him.
 
man this guy is getting outta control ๐Ÿคฏ. attacking a judge's family is just low, you know? it's not even about winning an argument or standing up for himself, it's just being hurtful and childish ๐Ÿ˜’. the fact that he's trying to undermine public confidence in the justice system by being all confrontational and stuff, like, what's next gonna be him questioning the integrity of random everyday people on the street? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ this is just a case of someone who's lost touch with reality and is desperate to cling to power ๐Ÿ’”.
 
omg can you believe what trump said about that judge ๐Ÿคฏ like seriously who does he think he is? and now maggie haberman is saying it's all part of his plan to deflect attention lol i'm not really sure how much more of this we're gonna see though it's just so sad when people in power act like this

i was thinking about what haberman said about the justice system and stuff... does that mean we shouldn't trust anyone in power anymore? ๐Ÿค” like wouldn't that just lead to more chaos and stuff?

anyway, i saw a cute video of puppies online and it completely distracted me from this depressing news ๐Ÿ˜‚
 
I'm getting really worried about the state of politics right now ๐Ÿค•. Trump's behavior is just unbelievable - attacking a judge and their family? It's like something out of a bad movie. I mean, what kind of precedent is that setting for our democracy?

And you're right, Haberman makes some great points about how he's trying to deflect attention from the serious allegations against him. But honestly, it's not going to work. People are seeing through his tricks and calling him out for what he is - a master manipulator who will stop at nothing to get away with his actions.

I'm just so tired of leaders using their power to undermine institutions that are supposed to hold them accountable. It's like they think they're above the law or something ๐Ÿ˜’. Newsflash: you're not, Donald Trump!
 
omg I'm literally shaking thinking about trumps speech ๐Ÿคฏ like how low can you get?! attacking the judge and his family? what if one day someone attacks u and ur fam?! ๐Ÿ™…โ€โ™‚๏ธ anyway imo it's not just about the judge, it's about the fact that trump thinks he can just say whatever he wants and ppl will still follow him? no way bruh ๐Ÿšซ I mean I know hes got a lot of followers but come on, ppl have to think for themselves too ๐Ÿค”
 
Ugh ๐Ÿค•, what a total shame. This guy just can't stop being a sore loser, right? He thinks he can just waltz into his own arraignment like it's no big deal, but then he has to go and trash the poor judge who's trying to do their job... meanwhile, Trump's trying to make us all believe that this whole thing is some kind of conspiracy against him ๐Ÿ™„. Newsflash, Donny: you're not fooling anyone with your fake outrage act ๐Ÿ˜’. This just shows how desperate he is to avoid taking responsibility for his own actions, and honestly, it's kinda sad. I mean, can't we all just get along and have a civilized conversation about the issues at hand? Nope, Trump'd rather resort to childish name-calling and personal attacks ๐Ÿคก. It's just so...predictable ๐Ÿ˜’.
