Seriously, how does everyone in our country not have an issue with this.  Our tax dollars are not here to use for anyone's personal legal troubles, unless it is a public attorney in a criminal case.  Seeing as how this is a civil matter, this shouldn't have even been requested by the DOJ.

"NEW YORK (AP) — The Justice Department is asking to take over President Donald Trump’s defense in a defamation lawsuit from a writer who accused him of rape, and federal lawyers asked a court Tuesday to allow a move that could put the American people on the hook for any money she might be awarded.

After New York state courts turned down Trump’s request to delay E. Jean Carroll’s suit, Justice Department lawyers filed court papers aiming to shift the case into federal court and to substitute the U.S. for Trump as the defendant. That means the federal government, rather than Trump himself, might have to pay damages if any are awarded."

 

Unfreaken believable.

Hell to the no. He should pay his own cost for personal defense.

Nothing to see here. American democracy functioning totally normally and how it was meant to. This guy is bad at Twitter but otherwise everything is running pretty normally.
