Is a Mental Deficiency Defense the True Allies for Trump?

No, it's not likely. Just think, all those statements of his keep coming back to haunt him. He truly is his own worst enemy. He has repeatedly mentioned on air that he has a “very large bah-rain” - something that is certainly used against him rather than help.

No Time to Ponder the Past

During an interview with Bren Baier, the poor guy didn’t have the time to go through years of personal things, including his shirts, because he was fully engaged in plotting his return and reaping monetary benefits from his loyal followers. He had bigger fish to fry, and the last thing he wanted was to focus on past events.

The Reality of His Defense

But if he did pursue an insanity plea, he would face several serious implications. First, it would mean staying at a treatment facility until the court makes a decision, and even then, he would still have to face trial. This is not a favorable option for someone like Trump who has a lot at stake.

Staying on the Defensive

Considering that Trump would not allow his legal team to use an insanity plea, which could damage his political standing and revenue stream, his defense is likely to be based on delaying tactics, motions, appeals, and even questioning the integrity of the judges and jurors. All of this is geared towards insulating him from legal dangers until he regains his political footing before facing trial.

Does 'Best' Even Apply?

The word 'best' is problematic here. The 'best' is entirely subjective and depends on the viewpoint. Is it best for the American people? For Trump's lawyers? For the courts? For the press? Even from Trump's perspective, what is his goal? Is it freedom from prison or the preservation of his political ambitions?

Challenges for Trump

Considering his undiagnosed Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Trump’s ability to even make a mental deficiency defense is questionable. This condition can cloud judgment and decision-making, potentially further complicating his legal situation and making him more vulnerable to manipulation and fallout.

In conclusion, the concept of 'best' in Trump's defense is highly debatable and ultimately depends on perspective. His legal team and allies will likely focus on strategic maneuvering rather than a defense of mental deficiency, given Trump's history and the political climate.
