S president Donald Trump has delivered an astonishing public rant against the judge ruling in his legal battle with a Seattle law firm.
A hearing was held yesterday before a federal court where Perkins Coie applied to have an executive order from the Trump administration ruled unlawful.
US District Judge Beryl Howell had already granted a temporary restraining order against the government action and oversaw the hearing on the firm’s motion for summary judgment as well as the government’s motion to dismiss.
In a post on the same day on his Truth Social site, Trump said he was suing Perkins Coie but was dismayed to learn that Howell was the appointed judge. He described her as a Barack Obama appointment and a ‘highly biased and unfair disaster’.
The president continued: ‘She ruled against me in the past, in a shocking display of sick judicial temperament, on a case that ended up working out very well for me, on appeal. Her ruling was so pathologically bad that it became the “talk of the town.” I could have a 100% perfect case and she would angrily rule against me. It’s called Trump Derangement Syndrome, and she’s got a bad case of it.’
