YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFollowing Judge Juan Merchan’s quick ruling to NOT give in to Donald Trump’s demand to further delay the criminal sentencing set for Friday, a MAGA lawyer issued a warning to the judge. Mike Davis, a Trump-loving lawyer who has been in the headlines a lot recently for his insane rantings, told Merchan that he needs to “lawyer up, buddy” and then told him he can “go to hell.” Davis maintains that Trump’s DOJ is going to make Merchan’s life hell, and that could very well be the case, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump doesn't have to worry about fighting his own battles, because apparently he has enough MAGA allies out there willing to say these stupid things that he doesn't need to say, even though he typically says them himself anyway. But nevertheless, this week, MAGA lawyer, Mike Davis, who of course has been in headlines over the last few months for saying crazy and outrageous things, is back in the headlines for saying a crazy and outrageous thing that, of course has no bearing in reality. This Trump loving lawyer appeared on the Benny Johnson show, where he not only told Judge Juan Marshan, who has scheduled Donald Trump's sentencing for Friday, uh, that he needed to lawyer up, but he also told him, go to hell. Here is Mike Davis's official statement. I would say to this, to Juan Marshan, you better also lawyer up because you are also, what you're doing is also a very serious federal civil rights felony.
Again, 18 US Code 2 41, Juan Marshan can also go to hell lawyer up, buddy. Um, just point of order there. You had two sentences where you said the word also four times. Four times in two sentences. The word also, um, maybe find a new word. I don't know. Buy a dictionary, buy a thesaurus if you need to, Mike. But, uh, it just sounds really dumb when you just use the same word over and over again. For those not familiar with an 18 US code. Section 2 41 says that it is a violation, uh, a felony if two or more people conspire to violate somebody's civil rights. So I don't, I don't know why he specifically said that's what we're gonna use to go after Judge Juan Marshan, but, um, that, that, that's not even close to being applicable here, you're talking about a judge who was assigned a case.
Like, what, what are you even trying to do here, Mike? You're allegedly a lawyer, I'm assuming, clearly not that great of one, but you did go to law school, you've passed a bar, and you're saying that Judge Juan Rashan being appointed to oversee a case is somehow a conspiracy to violate Donald Trump's civil rights when in reality that's literally how lawsuits and, and uh, uh, criminal proceedings go. You, you can't, uh, you can't sue over that. But don't worry, folks, he doesn't just want to go after Juan Marshan. He wants to go after the prosecutors who prosecuted the, uh, capitol rioters. 'cause later on he went on and said
This, that, in my opinion is equally insane. But he said, uh, we should absolutely bring civil lawsuits against Biden prosecutors. They should not indemnify them. They should not pay any federal funds for what these prosecutors have done. They should let these prosecutors get sued in their individual capacities and have to hire their own private lawyers to defend themselves. This could mean the destruction of the people who did this. This could mean financial, political, and personal destructive for the people who did this. I mean, these aren't just idle threats. Um, also, by the way, um, legally speaking, you can't prosecute or sue a prosecutor for handling a case that they were assigned. Okay? The, these were not private lawyers that went out and did this. These were employees at the Department of Justice that were assigned these cases. That is not an actionable offense. That is not something you can sue people for civilly.
