Description: On Monday, Donald Trump had his lawyers file a motion to immediately clear the contempt against him that is costing him $10,000 per day. But he also took the time to call out the judge and label him as "being unfair," and that's never going to get you on the judge's good side. Perhaps that's why the courts rejected the motion almost immediately, and let the fines continue to rack up. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

If I've said it once I've said it a hundred times, never insult the judge overseeing your case. That is a message that I have delivered directly sitting right here to this particular camera. I've delivered that to Donald Trump, his lawyers and everybody in his orbit. And luckily, no lot of them have taken my advice and they continue to go out there and insult the judges that are basically holding their fate in their hands. And we saw it play out once again this week, not in Donald Trump's favor when he appealed a decision last week to continue holding him in contempt, charging him $10,000 a day, which yes does include weekends. So $70,000 per week, they appealed it. And on Monday filed a motion with the appellate court to get it repealed. And immediately after filing the motion, Donald Trump told Bloomberg quote, uh, we have a judge that frankly has been unbelievably unfair. We've given millions and millions of pages and he says, give more, give more, always give more, make it sound like the judge is some kind of greedy little child here. Like I want more, Hey, more documents and building a document house. And I don't have enough. I that's, that's not what happened. And of course, as I mentioned, he is talking about the original judge. The judge still overseeing the case, by the way, not the appellate judges who he was trying to get to throughout the case. Well, to nobody's surprise Tuesday morning, just a couple hours. The appellate court came back and said, no, we're not purging your contempt. You're still going to be charged $10,000 a day, buddy. Suck it up and deal with it and turn over these documents that we continue to ask for. And again, I do think a lot of it has to do with the fact that Trump will not stop insulting these judges. You're not gonna take any kind of pity on the person when they're out there, trashing your colleagues. And I do speak from experience on this. Let me just explain a couple things. Obviously here at ring of fire, we do a lot of legal segments because we've got a lot of lawyers, you know, Mike Paonia, one of the best in the country here, and we've gone out and we've talked about cases that Mike Paonia and you know, partners at his law firm are currently handling. The one thing we do not do is we don't trash. The judges that are overseeing those cases occasionally. Yeah. After the cases have ended and there's no appeals, no nothing. It's over. We'll talk some smack about the judges, but never until I, after it's done. And do you know why that is? Because you don't wanna off the judges. You don't wanna go and taint anything. Even if you think it could be appealed, you still don't do it yet. Trump doesn't learn that he has not learned that he's still out there doing the same thing that eventually is going to off enough judges that he's not gonna have any friends left in the judiciary. He continues to lose in court. That's the big takeaway here. And to be honest, based on what I've seen from plenty of lawsuits, part of it has to do with how he treats those judges. Now you may disagree with me, but trust me, I am speaking from experience. When you antagonize that judge, any judge and any step of this, it doesn't ever end well for you.
