WITCH HUNT!

Video transcript 8:00

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.

Published on the opening day of the NY civil fraud trial — following Judge Engoron's September 26 summary judgment finding Trump liable for fraud — this two-word post represents maximum emotional compression of a persecution narrative. The narcissistic injury trigger is unambiguous: public accountability via judicial proceedings constitutes an existential status threat. The post functions less as communication than as a brand activation signal, bypassing rational engagement entirely and mobilizing follower sympathy as compensatory narcissistic supply. Defense mechanisms are pathological (denial of legal reality, distortion of evidentiary proceedings as supernatural persecution) and immature (projection of aggression onto the judicial system). Narcissistic state is predominantly vulnerable — victim/martyr framing — though the day's five-post cluster shows oscillation toward grandiosity in subsequent posts. The "WITCH HUNT" phrase is a stable verbal brand deployed across every major legal proceeding since at least 2017; its repetitive use constitutes RAND Firehose-style reality distortion through volume alone. The video attachment suggests possible aide facilitation in packaging, but the verbal content is unambiguously authentic Trump. Archetypally, this is pure Victim/Martyr with latent Warrior; shadow elements (aggression, illegitimate use of power) are projected onto the judicial system. Cognitive assessment is impossible from two words; no deviation from stress-response baseline is evident. No danger indicators present in this post in isolation, though aggregate delegitimization of judicial institutions carries diffuse systemic risk.

Danger Assessment

None

Gaslighting Detected:
  • Denies legitimacy of documented legal proceedings resting on evidentiary record
  • DARVO pattern: perpetrator of documented fraud positioned as victim of persecution
  • Attacks public perception of judicial proceedings as legitimate and grounded
  • Implicit demand that followers accept persecution framing as condition of loyalty
Reality Distortions:
  • Civil fraud proceedings based on documented financial records and expert testimony recast as politically motivated supernatural persecution
  • Summary judgment finding of fraud liability implicitly denied through witch-hunt framing
  • Judicial system reframed from rule-of-law institution to corrupt political weapon
Fact Checks (1)
"Implicit claim that NY civil fraud proceedings are politically motivated persecution ('witch hunt') rather than legally grounded"
Mostly False

Judge Engoron issued summary judgment on September 26 finding Trump and his organization liable for persistent fraud in inflating asset values by up to $2.6 billion — based on documentary financial records, not political motivation. While AG Letitia James campaigned partly on Trump oversight (which raises legitimate process questions), the fraud findings rest on documented financial records and expert testimony reviewed by the court. The 'witch hunt' characterization is an opinion, but one directly contradicted by the evidentiary record underlying the judicial finding.
