Trump calls Biden ‘lying machine’ and ‘fact checker’s dream’ as CNN debate looms: Live

Donald Trump is being ridiculed on social media after claiming hysterically in a fundraising email to supporters that he was “tortured” at his Georgia arraignment last August.

“I want you to remember what they did to me. They tortured me in the Fulton County Jail, and TOOK MY MUGSHOT,” Trump’s campaign wrote, taking the opportunity in the same dispatch to sell coffee cups bearing the very same image.

On Tuesday, Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over Trump’s recent New York hush money trial, partially lifted the gag order imposed on the defendant, empowering him to resume attacking key witnesses like Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen.

Meanwhile, sources close to the Republican presidential contender suggested he may name his 2024 running mate ahead ofThursday’s presidential debate against Joe Biden, the candidate having previously said he would announce who would join him on the GOP ticket at the party’s convention in Milwaukee next month.

Trump and his conservative media allies have continued to suggest in advance that the CNN debate will not be a fair fight, arguing without evidence that moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash will be biased and that Biden will be using perfomance-enhancing medication.

Trump is well-known for many traits: his divisiveness, his glitzy taste in real estate, The Apprentice, his lawsuits, for being the only president to be impeached twice and now his felony conviction.

But perhaps nothing has infiltrated society more than his unique linguistic style.

Whether he’s posting on Truth Social, speaking at a campaign rally or testifying in court, Trump never seems to be at a loss for words — and sometimes, he even makes up new ones.
