So, it is true. Marla Maples was right. Donald Trump really is a wildcat in the bedroom.

Famously, Mr. Trump’s second wife was quoted on the cover of the New York Post during their explosive 1990 divorce as saying that he was the “best sex I’ve ever had.”

Last week, it was revealed in a seedy, unheated New York courtroom that Mr. Trump is such a wildcat in the bedroom that porn actress Stormy Daniels “blacked out” — even before the gold-fingered Lothario was finished.

No, seriously. This really was testimony in a New York courtroom. And it wasn’t even night court.

If it were not the republic at stake, this whole pornographic charade playing out in court would be pretty entertaining.

You have a political party that is so destitute of ideas, so corrupt to the core and so desperate to cling to power that its leaders have concocted a fantastical criminal case against their political rival in order to destroy him, bankrupt him, silence him and — ultimately — jail him. 

Watching 100,000 enthusiastic people gather along the boardwalk of a New Jersey beach to support former President Donald Trump on Saturday evening gives you some idea of how terrified Democrats are of Mr. Trump.

Whatever happens, they cannot face him in a fair and honest election. Because they will lose and they know it.

And before we start blaming all the corrupt judges, dishonest prosecutors and sleazy politicians orchestrating this abortion of justice, let us not forget who started it all: former President Barack Obama.

It was Mr. Obama — along with his then-vice president, Joe Biden — who first directed his Department of Justice to conduct a domestic spying operation on Donald Trump and his campaign back in 2016 when Mr. Trump first rose to political prominence and became a threat to Mr. Obama and his party.

Since then, Democrats have gone from the White House to the gutter to the sewer to stop Mr. Trump. Most recently, they have turned a ratty, unkempt courtroom in lower Manhattan into a porn studio to spin their sordid and deviant fantasies in hopes of destroying Donald Trump.

The director of this latest sleazy porn is Judge Juan Merchan, a crazed Democrat who aspires to be the Quentin Tarantino of this particular raunchy porn fantasy. His favorite personal kink is the “gag order.”

Let me stop here to apologize to all the good people at home who are far too decent to traffic in this kind of smut. But so long as Democrats in cosplay robes like Judge Merchan and prosecutor Alvin Bragg insist upon corrupting our politics with their sick fantasies, we ink-stained wretches have an obligation to report on their dirty shenanigans.

The movie could be called “Don Does Democracy.” Or “Make America Horny Again,” as star witness Stormy Daniels has called it while peddling her own gross fantasy.

Or maybe “Stormy Daniels Takes On 12 Angry Men.”

It would not be her first time. She is, after all, a master of multitasking. She can do so many things at once she could teach CNN pundit and self-help guru Jeffrey Toobin a thing or two.

In addition to Judge Merchan and Stormy Daniels — along with courtside analysis from Mr. Toobin on CNN — this production includes a guest appearance from David Pecker, formerly of the National Enquirer.

The problem for Democrats is that extensive polling now shows that voters see through their scam and don’t like what is going on. Even voters who do not particularly like Donald Trump are disgusted to see Democrats destroy the American judicial system to persecute a political enemy they are afraid of facing at the ballot box.

But — in the name of decency — it is important to note in addition to an attack on the American judicial system, the Democrats’ whole charade is one giant lie.

There is no evidence to support Stormy Daniels’ wild claims about sex with Mr. Trump. After all, she is a porn actress. And Mr. Trump is a germaphobe.
