15:42Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian break down the spectacular failure of Trump's $15 billion "Lucky Loser" lawsuit against The New York Times—thrown out by Republican-appointed Judge Steven Merryday without even waiting for the defendants to respond. The hosts analyze how the judge called Trump's 85-page complaint a "political rally" disguised as a lawsuit, violating basic federal rules requiring "short and plain" statements. They reveal the judge's brutal takedown, comparing Trump's filing to someone suing God and noting it was filled with "superfluous allegations" and "tedious" self-promotion calling his election victory "the greatest achievement in American history." The attorneys explain how this conservative Bush-appointed judge gave Trump 28 days to refile with a 40-page limit, showing even Republican judges won't tolerate Trump turning courtrooms into "megaphones for public relations."
