THIS IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME. ELECTION INTERFERENCE! ## What the media says **Video transcript** (8:00), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his: > They're wasting everybody's time for many months on this case where banks got paid a fortune, loaned money, got paid money back. Didn't even need their money. These are the great companies, and we have to go through this. So, this just broke before I discuss that. Why are we trying a case that the Appellate Division of New York State has just ruled recently that we won 80 percent of our case? And this judge refuses to acknowledge the ruling, which is very plain for all to see. We won, as you know, it had to do with Ivanka, and it had to do with other things. It had to do with the statute of limitations where they wanted to go back to 200 years ago, 500 years ago. It was limited, very much limited, and it amounted to about 80 percent of the case was won by us in the Appellate Division. And this rogue judge, a Trump painter, the only one that hates Trump more is his associate up there, his person that works with him, and she's screaming into his ear on almost every time we ask a question in disgrace. One other truth that's in disgrace. So, this rogue judge refuses to acknowledge the fact that we won 80 percent of this case in the Appellate Division, including statute of limitations. You know, in the statute of limitations, you have a period of time. He wants to go back so far that nobody's ever even heard of such a ridiculous thing. So, we won the case in the Appellate Division, and this judge refuses to acknowledge the Appellate Division, meaning he's got contempt for his own court system. Nobody's ever seen that before, where he refuses to even talk about it or acknowledge it. And the attorney general is a total -- she's a corrupt person, a terrible person, driving people out of New York, number one. That's number one. Number two, it just came out a few minutes ago, where Palm Beach County, the people that do this, agree with us 100 percent, and they say the judge is wrong. The judge is wrong in his ruling. He valued Mar-a-Lago at $18 million, and it's worth a billion dollars, maybe a billion five. And you saw where various properties that we have that are valued in the financial statements, which is totally subject to the clause that you've all been hearing about doing "buyer beware," as they call it. But this just came out. Era in New York, civil fraud case against Trump, is flagged by industry insiders who say valuation of Mar-a-Lago cited by judge is based on a misunderstanding of basic real estate practice. So they're saying the judge has misunderstood basic real estate practice. I say they're wrong about that. He didn't misunderstand it. This is a rigged court. He's put there to do a job on Trump. Now, this comes from highly respected officials in Palm Beach County. Also, a parent mistake by Judge Engoran surfaces in the use of a Palm Beach County appraisal of Mar-a-Lago that, an expert says, is detached from the true value of the property. Now, I don't know the people that we're talking about in Palm Beach County, but they saw this egregious trial, this horrible, horrible trial going on, while at the same time, people are being murdered right outside of the streets. And nothing happens to those people that do the murdering. They go after Trump. So this was just released by Palm Beach County that the judge, in this case, is wrong. And by the way, he's talking about them. So they're explaining to him that he's wrong. Here's another one. Just came out in New York. V. Trump could set precedent for the use of New York's overweening executive law. One doesn't have to be a lawyer to see the danger to anyone doing business in the Empire State. Anybody that does business in New York State is crazy. When you have a radical left attorney general like Letitia James, who's a disgrace to our country, who got elected on the fact that she's going to take down President Trump. We're going to take him down. She knew nothing about me. But she got elected on that basis. And we have others likewise. Take a look at what's going on in Georgia. Take a look at Jack Smith. Take a look at these people. This is called election interference. And worse than that. Really much worse than that. And you don't get much worse than election interference, especially when we're talking presidential election of 2024. So this judge should change his ruling because Palm Beach County said he was totally wrong. And he was ruling based on them. He ruled. We didn't even have a chance to testify. I got a call last week, "Sir, we lost part of the case." I said, "The trial didn't even start." You know, the trial starts, I guess, today. He ruled that we lost a big part of the case because he's a Democrat club politician. He's a Democrat operative, and he's a disgrace to people that call themselves judges. And I hope my lawyers go in, and I hope they fight him very hard because this guy is getting away with murder. And his clerk should not be allowed to be in his ear on every single question. You take a look at what's happening with her. She hates Trump more than he does. So that's where it is. We have 80 percent of this trial has been won. In June, they came down, the end of June, with a decision, a very powerful decision. And it said, on statute of limitations and just about everything else, would you say approximately 80 percent of the trial? -Yes, sir. -Attorneys, is that right? Approximately 80 percent of the trial is won. He refuses to acknowledge his own appellate division. And I think it's a disgrace to our country. And somebody has to fight, because if you don't fight, our country is just going to go down the tube. This is election interference. This guy is a highly partisan person. And we can't let this stuff happen. So you should ask yourselves as professionals -- have a lot of respect for you, not all of you, but a lot of you -- why is it that he didn't honor the decision of the appellate? And, by the way, I believe it was a unanimous decision, right? It's a five-to-nothing decision, unanimous decision. And he said, "I'm not going to honor it. Let's go to trial." This is a judge that should be disbarred. This is a judge that should be out of office. This is a judge that some people say could be charged criminally for what he's doing. He's interfering with an election, and it's a disgrace. Thank you very much. Thank you. -Mr. Trump, why do you want to be here in person today? -Because I want to watch this witch hunt myself. I've been going through a witch hunt for years, but this is really now getting dirty between Jack Smith and between all of these DOJ people helping them along. This is a pure witch hunt for purposes of interfering with the elections of the United States of America. It's totally illegal. This judge should be disbarred. He shouldn't be allowed to be a judge. Thank you. ## Media - video: https://static-assets-1.truthsocial.com/tmtg:prime-ts-assets/media_attachments/files/111/166/921/367/774/752/original/995f5d517d97deb4.mp4 ## Engagement - Likes: 14,774 - Reposts: 3,306 - Replies: 498 - Views: unknown - Metrics collected: 2026-02-01T01:19:51.396Z (UTC) # Analysis _Machine-generated by trump.fm on 2026-03-20T09:27:53.152Z (UTC): a model's reading of this post, not his words. Its psychological terms describe the language, not a clinical assessment of him._ ## Summary Bare mechanical retweet of Trump's own earlier post, published 2:50 PM EDT on the opening day of his NY civil fraud trial. No original text; video content inaccessible. High-probability aide-initiated or automated amplification. Analytical value is contextual: the post functions as a volume element in a day-long narcissistic injury response cluster triggered by the trial's commencement following a summary judgment finding of fraud. No danger indicators present. Surrounding posts carry the day's psychological weight — persecution framing, judge delegitimization, logical distortion of an evidentiary ruling — while this RT silently amplifies the earlier content. Authorship confidence high for aide/automated; timing and format inconsistent with Trump's authentic late-night reactive posting style. # Analysis: RT of Own Post — Video Amplification During NY Fraud Trial (2023-10-02) ## Overview This post is a bare mechanical retweet (RT) of Trump's own earlier Truth Social post (ID: 111165765055002207) from the same day, accompanied by a video attachment but containing zero original text. Content analysis is severely constrained: the original post is JavaScript-gated and the video is a binary media file, both inaccessible to text-based analysis. The analysis below draws heavily on surrounding post context and timing metadata. --- ## Authorship Attribution **Timestamp:** 2023-10-02T18:50:13Z UTC = **2:50 PM EDT** (Trump was in New York for the opening day of his civil fraud trial before Judge Engoron in Manhattan). This falls squarely within business hours (9am–6pm local). The post consists of a single mechanical RT string with no original text, no typos, no emotional embellishment — consistent with a staff/aide-scheduled amplification of earlier content, or a platform-automated repost action. Trump's authentic late-night/early-morning posting pattern (seen in surrounding posts that day) is absent here. The complete absence of any text beyond the RT mechanism further reduces the probability of direct personal authorship. **Assessment:** High probability aide-initiated or platform-automated repost. --- ## Contextual Framing October 2, 2023 was the opening day of Trump's civil fraud trial in New York, presided over by Judge Arthur Engoron. The NY AG Letitia James had already won a summary judgment finding Trump liable for persistent fraud in inflating asset values. The surrounding posts that day form a coherent psychological reaction cluster: 1. (blank post — possible error/truncation) 2. "ELECTION INTERFERENCE!" (grandiose victimhood, all-caps rage) 3. "A CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!" (persecutory framing) 4. Mischaracterization of the judge's ruling on expert testimony ("every trial in American history has to be thrown out") 5. Link to sympathetic Gregg Jarrett op-ed 6. **← This RT with video** (amplification/volume tactic) The video almost certainly recapitulates the trial-grievance narrative given its clustering with these posts. Without content access, this remains inferential but confidence is moderate. --- ## Psychological State (Inferred from Context) The post itself contributes no direct psychological signal, but as a unit within the day's posting cluster it participates in a high-intensity narcissistic injury response. The opening of the fraud trial — a direct legal attack on Trump's financial identity and business legacy — constitutes a severe narcissistic injury (defeat + exposure). The day's posting pattern shows: - **Narcissistic state:** Vulnerable-to-grandiose oscillation. The victimhood language ("witch hunt," "election interference") marks the vulnerable pole; the claim that the judge has invalidated all American trials marks a grandiose counter-move. - **Defense mechanisms:** Distortion (reshaping the judge's ruling into an absurdity), denial (framing civil liability as political persecution), projection (calling the proceeding "election interference" reverses the causality). - **Trigger:** Direct narcissistic injury — legal liability finding + public trial proceedings. The RT as a propagandistic volume move fits the RAND Firehose model: the sheer quantity and redundancy of messaging on a single day floods the information space with the persecution narrative. --- ## Rhetorical Analysis The RT mechanism itself deploys **amplification** — a volume-based propaganda technique. Combined with the surrounding posts, the day's output constitutes: - **Firehose volume**: Multiple posts in rapid succession on the same theme - **Repetition and redundancy**: Each post re-anchors the persecution frame from a slightly different angle - **Appeal to injustice/grievance**: Framing a court proceeding as political interference - **Authority delegitimization**: Attacking the judge's competence and political bias No violent imagery or dehumanizing language is detectable in this post. --- ## Cognitive Markers No text to assess directly. Within the day's surrounding posts, the logical leap in the expert testimony post — claiming the judge's ruling would invalidate "every trial in American history" — shows catastrophizing and loose inferential logic, though this may be rhetorical hyperbole rather than a cognitive marker. Insufficient data for deviation from baseline. --- ## Summary This post is a content-minimal retweet of Trump's own earlier content, posted at 2:50 PM EDT on the opening day of his NY civil fraud trial. Its primary analytical value lies in its context rather than its content: it functions as a volume amplifier within a high-intensity, day-long persecution narrative cluster triggered by a severe narcissistic injury (civil liability finding + public trial). Authorship is likely aide-initiated given business-hours timing and absence of any original text. No danger indicators, violent imagery, or dehumanizing language are present in the post itself. ## Authorship Analysis **Aide-Written** (score: 15%) ### Indicators - 2:50 PM EDT — solidly within business hours - Zero original text; pure mechanical RT string - No typos, emotional embellishment, or stream-of-consciousness markers - Automated or staff-scheduled amplification pattern - Contrast with same-day ALL CAPS posts showing authentic emotional reactivity ## Psychological Profile ### State **Vulnerable State** **Trigger:** Narcissistic Injury — Defeat (NY civil fraud trial opening day; prior summary judgment finding Trump liable for fraud) Sentiment: -0.40 ### Clinical **Malignant Narcissism:** - Narcissistic: 80% - Antisocial: 40% - Paranoid: 75% - Sadism: 10% **Defense Mechanisms:** - denial (pathological) - distortion (pathological) - projection (immature) **Cognitive Complexity:** - Complexity: 0% **Parasocial Techniques:** - Volume amplification — flooding follower feeds with persecution narrative on trial day ## Tags - retweet (100%) - aide-authored (85%) - ny-fraud-trial (90%) - amplification (80%) - narcissistic-injury-response (70%) - content-minimal (100%) - video-inaccessible (100%) ## That day _From trump.fm's machine-generated digest of the day, not his words._ **Trial Day One: Midnight Rage Cascade Through Courthouse as Fraud Proceedings Trigger Sustained Narcissistic Crisis** Trump spent the entire day consumed by the opening of his New York civil fraud trial, pivoting sharply from a celebratory post-rally tone the evening before into an overnight storm of attacks on the judge and attorney general. He posted past midnight naming both officials repeatedly as corrupt, racist, and rogue, then continued the barrage from the courthouse steps and throughout the proceedings. The mood was overwhelmingly combative and aggrieved, with slogans like "WITCH HUNT" and "ELECTION INTERFERENCE" deployed as rapid-fire emotional shorthand. By afternoon, aides appeared to supplement his raw outbursts with curated legal commentary, but the day never broke free from its single consuming theme.
