Fox News's Dana Perino wasn't happy that NY Attorney General Letitia James had the sheer audacity to wear makeup during Trump's civil fraud trial on Thursday. Who ever heard of a woman wearing makeup, AMIRITE?

That falls in line with Donald Trump's outburst this morning on his struggling Truth Social platform, where he lashed out over how James sat in the courtroom and that she smiled and was drinking coffee "with her shoes off." (I don't even know if that's true).

And, Captain Caps Lock said, she was sitting, "JUST LIKE SHE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE DECISION WILL BE!"

"Dana, these cases are looking more frivolous as we learn more about them," Jesse Watters said.

"Well, and also because she -- this is the Attorney General of New York, and she has been in court every single day that it's available," co-host Dana Perino said. "And she thinks this is not political; she makes sure that she's hair and camera, you know, makeup ready."

"She goes in front of the cameras every -- sometimes she stops and talks to them, she's sitting in the front row as if she has nothing else to do in the entire state of New York as the attorney general," she adds. "Of course, it's political, and it looks like that."

MEOW, girl! That's pretty catty, Dana. I can bring up women's appearances, too. Would they be hyperventilating over James's makeup if she was a white woman? Probably not. Most of them in Trump's orbit get their appearances "taken care of." You can ask Kimberly Guilfoyle, who has had more hands on her than Hunter Biden's laptop. And more antiseptic needles in her than Junior's drug buddies. I'm OK with women getting work done, but it just seems to be a prerequisite to be on Trump's team.

Sure, if this is a thing from the right wing, I can do it, too. Notice that Habba can look all purty for the cameras before she goes to Melania's home at Mar-a-Lago to hang out with the high falutin crackheads. Wait, did I say that? It's OK. I'll just claim that it was AI. That too seems to be all the rage with Trump's allies.

You can bet if I had a chance to sit in that courtroom to watch a part of history go down, I'd be there with makeup on and hair done- but I'd keep my shoes on. My feet are weird-looking.
