Are they going to perp walk him up the courthouse steps?

[–] gabuwu@beehaw.org 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am doubtful. They are being highly coordinated in the way they are approaching this case not to give him free campaign material.

interesting perspective, I hadn't thought about the campaign angle.. I agree though, they won't perp walk him.

But will we get mug shots this time?

[–] SomeGuyNamedPaul@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

No, the justification is that everyone already knows what he looks like.

Most likely. That's what happened last time when he was indicted in NY, and that's what will happen next time when he gets indicted in Georgia.

In New York they snuck him in through a back door. There was no perp walk up the courthouse steps.

You're right, English is not my first language, so I thought "perp walk" was when the media reported on every step of the orange man. Once I translated and understood the meaning, I had to delete my comment out of embarrassment

Don't be embarrassed, English is an insane language.

I will just pour some of this inflammable liquid onto this flammable liquid that caught fire...

[–] FewerWheels@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Your English is pretty good though. Keep up the good work.

I dunno., call me naive but I think NY is a different animal than the fed gov - I think he feds will be a little more professional/ respectful. But hey, I could be wrong!

I read he’ll enter from an underground garage so we won’t see much of anything.
