Trump boasted to Fox News host Laura Ingraham that his legal battles have now made him an 'expert at law'—and the internet dragged him hard.

Former President Donald Trump was roasted by President Joe Biden's campaign after claiming that his legal battles have now made him an "expert at law."

Speaking during a Fox News town hall hosted by Laura Ingraham, Trump echoed his baseless claim that Biden is orchestrating the 91 criminal charges he is currently confronting.


He also attributed the legal challenges he is encountering to his decision to run for office:

“I’ve become an expert at law.”
“If I didn’t run, I wouldn’t have any of these lawsuits, you know that, none of them."

Biden's campaign swiftly shared the footage on X, formerly Twitter, with the following shady caption:

"Trump says his 91 felony indictments make him an ‘expert at law."

Critics questioned Trump's self-proclaimed legal expertise, with many suggesting that his legal prowess might be more of a consequence of his legal entanglements rather than a demonstration of genuine expertise.

Trump's words exposed him to significant mockery as a result.


During the same interview, the so-called "expert at law" claimed the 8th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution's prohibition on "excessive fines" makes the fine levied in his New York fraud trial unconstitutional.

Last week, Judge Arthur Engoron imposed a financial penalty of $354.8 million on Trump, along with an additional sum of around $100 million in pre-judgment interest. The ruling came as a consequence of the judge's determination that Trump had artificially inflated his net worth with the intention of securing more favorable loan terms.

Trump proceeded to pull a copy of the 8th Amendment out of his pocket before reading the section that states “Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted."

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.
