Donald Trump has attacked the judge in his criminal case from the safety of his Florida country club and on his social media platform, yet failed to raise a single word of complaint to Justice Juan Merchans face when he was seated just yards away at Trumps arraignment.

Yes. I do. Thank you.

Those responses to Merchans questions made up half of the total words the coup-attempting former president uttered during the 45-minute hearing Tuesday at a courthouse in lower Manhattan. The first two words were the point of that initial appearance: Not guilty.

Trumps other answers were to Merchans questions about whether he understood the instructions Merchan was giving him about courtroom rules and his attorneys.

Just hours later at his Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Trump delivered a 25-minute speech attacking the various prosecutors looking into his actions, and claiming without evidence that Merchan is biased against him.

I have a Trump-hating judge with a Trump-hating wife and family whose daughter worked for Kamala Harris and now receives money from the Biden-Harris campaign. And a lot of it, Trump said to a crowd of specially invited supporters.

Trump had expressed the same sentiment in an all-caps post on his Truth Social site a few hours before entering the courtroom: THE HIGHLY PARTISAN JUDGE & HIS FAMILY ARE WELL KNOWN TRUMP HATERS. HE WAS AN UNFAIR DISASTER ON A PREVIOUS TRUMP RELATED CASE, WOULDNT RECUSE, GAVE HORRIBLE JURY INSTRUCTIONS, & IMPOSSIBLE TO DEAL WITH DURING THE WITCH HUNT TRIAL. HIS DAUGHTER WORKED FOR KAMALA & NOW THE BIDEN-HARRIS CAMPAIGN. KANGAROO COURT!!!
