Do you need the whole transcript so you can understand his words? OK. Take 
about a minute.

I'll tell you something that you might not know. You've probably been reading 
in the press, if you've been reading about this case, that Trump is already a 
convicted felon. The jury has convicted him. "He's a convicted felon."

Well, guess what? That's not true. You're not a convicted felon because of a 
jury verdict. You're not convicted unless the judge enters a judgment of guilt 
against you.

YOU'RE NOT A CONVICTED FELON BECAUSE OF A JURY VERDICT. YOU'RE NOT CONVICTED 
UNLESS THE JUDGE ENTERS A JUDGMENT OF GUILT AGAINST YOU.

The judge still has the power as I told you before to throw out that verdict 
and enter a judgment of acquittal. You are not convicted until the judge enters 
that judgment of guilt.

YOU ARE NOT CONVICTED UNTIL THE JUDGE ENTERS THAT JUDGMENT OF GUILT.

Now, in New York, it's very likely that Judge Merchan will enter that judgment 
of guilt against Trump on the same day that he issued sentencing. That'd be 
July 11th. So what would this federal case be about in this federal action? 
Trump would sue attorney Bragg and other state actors and ask the judge, the 
federal judge for an emergency temporary restraining order halting Judge 
Merchan from entering that judgment of guilt.

THAT, coming from a Constitution Law Professor at Yale, trumps your OPINION.

An Internet troll is someone who enters an online discussion and posts comments 
designed to upset or disrupt the conversation.

"Dark Tetrad" personality traits include narcissism, Machiavellianism, 
psychopathy, and sadism. 

(someone's been reading my possstss againnnnn)

In a study of 1200 people, Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who 
said trolling was their favorite Internet activity.

In this month's issue of Personality and Individual Differences, a study was 
published that confirms what we all suspected: Internet trolls are horrible 
people.

Let's start by getting our definitions straight: An Internet troll is someone 
who comes into a discussion and posts comments designed to upset or disrupt the 
conversation. Often, in fact, it seems like there is no real purpose behind 
their comments except to upset everyone else involved. Trolls will lie, 
exaggerate, and offend to get a response.

What kind of person would do this? Some Canadian researchers decided to find 
out.
Study: Internet Trolls and Dark Tetrad Personality Traits

They conducted two online studies with over 1,200 people, giving personality 
tests to each subject along with a survey about their Internet commenting 
behavior. They were looking for evidence that linked trolling with the "Dark 
Tetrad" of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and 
sadism.

They found that Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who said trolling 
was their favorite Internet activity. To get an idea of how much more prevalent 
these traits were among Internet trolls, one can refer to tables from the paper 
showing low Dark Tetrad scores for everyone in the study ... except the trolls. 
Their scores for all four traits soar on the chart. The relationship between 
trolling and the Dark Tetrad is so significant that the authors write in their 
paper:

"... the associations between sadism and GAIT (Global Assessment of Internet 
Trolling) scores were so strong that it might be said that online trolls are 
prototypical everyday sadists." [emphasis added]

Trolls truly enjoy making you feel bad. To quote the authors once more (because 
this is a truly quotable article): "Both trolls and sadists feel sadistic glee 
at the distress of others. Sadists just want to have fun ... and the Internet 
is their playground!"

The next time you encounter a troll online, remember:

These trolls are some truly difficult people.
It is your suffering that brings them pleasure, so the best thing you can do is 
ignore them.
