Disgraced former President Donald Trump just can’t seem to catch a break in all his numerous legal woes, and his big lawsuit against multiple tech companies for banning his accounts is certainly no exception.

In a recent new brutal ruling, a federal judge dealt a pretty harsh blow to the former guy and his case against tech companies Twitter, Google, and Facebook when the judge ruled that the case must be heard in a venue that’s much less favorable for ex-President Trump.

The lawsuit was filed by Trump in Miami — where both the district and appellate court system are overrun by Republicans, many of which Donald Trump personally appointed to their positions. There’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that this was a calculated move on Trump’s part, in an effort to help ensure that the case would go in his favor.

However, POLITICO legal affairs reporter Josh Gerstein just revealed that Judge Kevin Michael Moore, a George H. W. Bush appointee, isn’t going to let them get away with that scheme.

Judge Moore cited YouTube’s (which is owned by Google) terms of service requires that the case be heard in a court in the San Francisco Bay Area — an area where courts feature far more Democrats that are far less likely to rule in Donald Trump’s favor.

The fact of the matter is, former President Trump was highly likely to face an uphill battle with this case, even with a Republican-appointed judge. Ever since his big announcement of the ridiculous lawsuit, legal experts have buried his case in mockery and labeled it as doomed to fail — as the First Amendment of the US Constitution clearly sides with social media platforms that aim to keep certain controversial content off their sites.

Other critics of Donald’s nonsense social media lawsuit have theorized that it’s really nothing more than a fundraising grift from a broke Donald Trump.

Was the crisis in Afghanistan surrounding the pull out of American Troops Biden's fault or Trump's fault?
