MAGA melts down after prosecutor Letitia James writes Trump a Valentine's Day poem

The New York prosecutor leading Donald Trump’s civil fraud case sent the former president a heart of a poem on Valentine’s Day.

“Roses are red,” wrote Attorney General Letitia James. “Violets Are blue. No one is above the law. Even when you think the rules don’t apply to you.”

This poem came out about noon Wednesday, hours after Trumpshared his own Valentine’s Day missive to his wife that included all-caps complaints about witch hunts, indictments, and arrests.

“You never left my side,” Trump said to Melania, who has been famously missing from the 2024 campaign trail.

James’ poem charmed and delighted some followers who expressed their gratitude that the Attorney General was holding Trump accountable for the fraud of which he was found liable last year.

“Happy Valentine’s Day!” replied Glen Carroll. “Stay strong!”

“Love this!” wrote Beth Caruso. “Justice will prevail.”

“From another Tish,” added Tish Metcalfe, “thanks for all you do to hold people accountable.”

But MAGA users on X were not quite so thrilled with the poem’s last two lines. They replied by accusing James of corruption and nefarious political motivations.

“Remember you said that when you are indicted for election interference,” scoffed Aaron L Schulte, echoing the Trump theory that civil and criminal prosecutions against him are evidence of the political witch hunt he referenced in his love letter to Melania.

“We WILL see your comeuppance,” @psychforensic said. “It will be glorious.”

Comeuppance is what legal expert Lisa Rubin says Trump could face on Friday, when Judge Arthur Engoron is expected to deliver his ruling in the $370 million case.

Wrote Rubin, mocking the former president's favorite word, "The consequences could be, well, yuge."
