Donald Trump wanted to deliver a closing argument at his bank fraud trial. But when his lawyers wouldn’t agree that he’d follow the rules, the judge blew the plan apart.
A bit of history. Trump’s legal mentor was Roy Cohn. Cohn was Joe McCarthy’s hatchet man. Cohn had a reputation as one of the most vicious pitbulls in New York legal circles. Cohn was also gay, and when he was dying of AIDS Trump dropped him like a hot potato.

From your same wiki link:
and according to Seymour’s notes, Trump was the last person to speak to Cohn on the phone before he died in 1986.
I haven’t found anything that corroborates your statement that Trump “dropped him”.
I did find this though, which reminds me of South Park; it sounds exactly like Cohn was a customer of CumHammer Brand Management:
the AIDS Memorial Quilt describes him as “Roy Cohn. Bully. Coward. Victim.”
Edit: Wait, actually, looking at one of the sources from the Wiki article, there was this bit:
Bell also doubts that Cohn’s last conversation was with Trump, who, she said, abandoned his lawyer when he found out that Cohn was H.I.V.-positive. “They were so close, they talked at least several times a week,” she said. “And as soon as he found out, he took all his cases away from Roy except for one and got new lawyers. After all they’d been through together.”
Seymour is Christine Seymour, Cohn’s telephone operator, who listened in on many of his conversations. Bell is Susan Bell, Cohn’s secretary.
I saw a family portrait of him with Melania and Barron from when his son was about six years old. Besides the ugly solid gold wallpaper, the thing that boggled my mind was that his kid was dressed in a little business suit and sitting in a little toy Mercedes luxury car. No space ships or jet planes for this lad.
Barron Trump turns 18 in March. I’m guessing the press are salivating over it because he’ll finally be fair game and they will all be jumping over each other trying to get an interview to see what he’ll say about his father.
Possibly, but he’s also apparently been mostly raised by Melania without Donald’s involvement and we have no idea of the ways she might have been poisoning her son against him.
I feel sorry for the kid, because there’s no way he’ll be able to have any kind of normal interaction with anyone. Porn star mom and psycho dad? Uncle/brothers like Eric and Fredo? When Ivanka is the most down to earth person you know…I can’t even complete the sentence.
[off topic and NSFW] Netflix show ‘Loudermilk’ is about an addiction therapist. He’s leading a group and one of the patients says that he was in a successful band back in the 1990s.
Another patient asks him about groupies. “Ever get a double blowjob? You know, one girl and two dudes?”

Just once, for contrast, I’d like someone to come up with a positive story about Trump.
He’ll die someday.
That’s the best I can do.
The outcome of this trial will be a positive story involving Trump if that helps.
It would be a lot easier if he took even a moment to stop being a shitheel for once.

imho he’s probably the rich kid version of those homeschooled kids whose parents think Obama invented vaccines to destroy the Aryan race.

Do you mean to tell me that Trump is such a homophobic bigot that he’ll drop his best friend if he finds out he’s gay?
Shocking.
Wow, thanks for sharing that. I had no idea.
It is a prime example of right-wing hypocrisy, bullyism, and cowardice.
on the one hand, aww.
on the other hand, fuck em.
No, no aww, Roy Cohn was a shitheel.
You know if you’d said trunk learned everything he knew by watching Dan Ackroyd in the original blues Brothers movie, I would have believed that too
I’ve never seen Trump misspelled that way before, but I kind of like it.
In my opinion, he’s been a busted valise.
I saw it, and then made a choice not to correct it.
Also, a broken suitcase was once useful, he’s never been worth anything
Roy Cohn is not a homosexual. Roy Cohn is a heterosexual man, Henry, who fucks around with guys.

[Millennium approaches intensely.]
What is that supposed to mean? Please
This is a reference to the play Angels in America, wherein Roy Cohn on his AIDS-in-denial deathbed is haunted by the ghosts of people he’s wronged
