'Tis the season to look back on a truly unprecedented year in America's courts, when the sight of a former president sitting before a judge went from unheard of to almost commonplace, and his ongoing campaign fused courtroom appearances into stump stops.
These were the 12 days of Trump court appearances:
April 4: On the first day of Trump court, the former president was whisked into a Manhattan criminal courthouse fortified by a massive security apparatus.
June 13: On the second day of Trump court, a Miami courthouse was largely shuttered and a crowd of protesters loomed outside as law enforcement prepared for another American first: a former president arraigned on federal charges.
Aug. 3: On the third day of Trump court, different city, same setup.
Oct. 2: On the fourth day of Trump court, Trump watched opening statements in a civil fraud trial.
Oct. 3: On the fifth day of Trump court, that dynamic got Trump in trouble.
Oct. 4: On the sixth day of Trump court, Trump left in the middle of the afternoon.
Oct. 17: On the seventh day of Trump court, Trump had planned to confront his archnemesis, lawyer and "fixer" Michael Cohen.
Oct. 18: On the eighth day of Trump court, Trump's frustration with the case, the judge and the witnesses was visible from the gallery.
Oct. 25: On the ninth day of Trump court, Trump and Cohen finally came face-to-face.
Oct. 26: On the 10th day of Trump court, Cohen remained on the stand.
Nov. 6: On the 11th day of Trump court, Trump was called to the stand.
Dec. 7: On the 12th day of Trump court, the room had far more seats empty than filled.
That was Trump's last court appearance in 2023, but 2024 is shaping up to have many more.

To down right ridiculous and unlawfully corrupt
2023 will be known as the year the DemoMarxist party came fully out of the closet as the commie loving, tyranny supporting, domestic enemy punks of the USA that they are. The question is what are we going to do about it?
Read Victor Davis Hansons take on all the corruption of the left has reaped upon all of us,and what the coming year portends
OTOH, its getting harder and harder for dimwit Biden and his clan to
think up charges that wont shoot Trump’s approvals into the stratosphere.
Watching the Christmas movie “Miracle on 34th Street,” .......the judge’s political advisor tells him his reelection is endangered by trying Santa Claus and proceeds to cue the judge in on rulings that increase his reelection pluses.
Reminds me of Judge Engoron’s aide visibly “assisting him” in trying Trump.
