musing about the term "President Trump" I had just heard on the radio. There was this feeling of being in a parallel universe or, perhaps, a very disturbing nightmare from which I hoped to awaken.

Comparative analysis may show that the sample in Carroll's possession comes from a person who is Mary's uncle. That would be a difficult position for Donald to defend.

to 45's. Mary's DNA will have similarities to 45's but her father's DNA would be a much closer match.

But maybe one of those chunks Trump expectorated yesterday can be collected and see if it yields a DNA sample.

of having the DA in their pockets.
