i’m curious about this in-between time ( and the after times, should he lose the election in a well justified crushing landslide of defeat. ) no visiting his golf courses, no glad handing for overseas cash…? or will countries let him do whatever he wants, gripped by the fear of what he or his allies might do?
Trump would call that type of martyr a loser.
He only likes martyrs who don’t die.
Today I learned Jesse Watters mom is regular people.
WATTERS: My mom is celebrating. She texted me that she was dancing after the verdict, dancing. And then she kept all day sending me 34, 34, 34 felony counts. … She’s a grandmother. She’s a grandmother! Get it together, Mom!
She’s a grandmother! Get it together, Mom!
Sounds like his mom already has it together!
I know I’m showing my age, but I suspect the spokesperson for the campaign looked like Jon Lovitz.
“We brought in ten thou- I mean six hundred fifty thou- no, FIFTY THREE MILLION dollars! Yeah, that’s the ticket!”
It is somehow reassuring to know that Watters’ mother doesn’t seem to think very highly of him either.
My mom was 97, and she wanted to punch Trump in the nose. Sadly she passed in January, because this would have made her very happy.
Mind you, her next remark would have been “Why isn’e he in jail nu? Toss him in and throw away the key!”
No way he said that as written. There are several big words in the correct order in that sentence
He actually said the words pretty well, in a “primary-school diction contest” sense of “well”. There’s an off-script bit in the middle, where the ellipses are, and he mostly formed coherent sentences there. And when he returned to the teleprompter he spoke clearly and acted like he understood the words.
His decline is yuge.
MSNBC actually found the tape:
“It would create an unprecedented Constitutional crisis if someone with a felony was running for President and got elected. It would grind government to a halt.”
–Donald Trump, three days before the 2016 national election, complaining about Hillary Clinton - who was not even indicted.
Edit: @Melizmatic I also applaud the outcome, just not the manipulated video lest we get accused of the creative story telling that defines MAGA news media outlets, but I must admit that video adds its own unique charm and chef’s kiss to the story.
Oh, well; fake shit happens.
Meanwhile…
The VERDICT IS STILL REAL and I’m still happy.
I can only hope posting that reply brought you even a modicum of the elation I still feel.
Good day.
Regardless- It was just like that in my house.
And mine… and in many, MANY other houses!
Y’know, I don’t ever recall stating or even implying that was actual footage of people reacting to the good news; especially since the trial itself was not televised.
I was just expressing my own jubilation in a visual manner, as I am prone to do. Funny how some folks feel an inexplicable need to diminish that…
that’s not real either i think. but funny.
