A NY Grand Jury will see Trump's Taxes right away. NBC's Pete Williams, "This is it. This is the end of
the line for Trump's lawyers."

(52,996 posts)According to this theory, the 20th Amendment is illegitimate (only the first 10 amendments are legal, because apparently that line in the Constitution that says the document can be amended is wrong) so the real president will be inaugurated when the original date was.
They conveniently forget that Trump was inaugurated in January 2017 so he must be illegitimate.
birdographer
(2,937 posts)I hope to not see or hear a single second of it, but I would bet good money his entire talk will revolve around him winning the election by a landslide and the Dems stealing it from him. He cannot let go of this, because that would mean admitting he lost.

(89,294 posts)Glad hes still on mute.
The longer hes muzzled and unable to stir shit up and pick scabs open, the better for ALL the rest of us. Even the MAGAts. Disabling his ability to stir THEM up is a blessing for the rest of us.
I read somewhere long ago that a key thing to do in war is to disrupt the enemys lines of communication. And thus disadvantaged, the enemy is easier to defeat.
The Velveteen Ocelot
(129,730 posts)And he's just issued a "Statement on the Continuing Political Persecution of President Donald J. Trump," which reads like a very extended Twitter thread of his usual pathetically hilarious, industrial-strength whining. I won't link to it here because I don't want to spread his shit any farther than necessary but it's elsewhere on DU.

(33,643 posts)His followers have been fed a steady diet of conspiracies about the courts refusing to hear his bigly, righteous cases that would prove the steal if only Kraken and Rudy and Lin Wood could present them in the Courts ... but the courts are part of the Deep State, you see?
These SCOTUS decisions work to his advantage. Cause he's manipulating a bunch of knuckle-dragging, moronic Cult45 members and that's all he cares about.
The Taxes, OTOH ...

And the real goal has always been manipulating the Cult.
This just goes to further his conspiracy bullshit he knows they thrive on.
I'm VERY sure he cares 100X more about the taxes case anyway.

(31,261 posts)He is a moron who thought getting three extremely conservative judges on the Court would be a total get out of jail free card for him and his family.

(89,294 posts)I bet that was his thinking. Plant three favorables in the Supreme Court and youre home free from now on (even AFTER hes out of office).
Because thats how its ALWAYS worked for him in the private sector. He does you a favor and you owe him from then on. Like some cheap-ass godfather wannabe.
Sorry donald. Your free ride is OVER.

(31,261 posts)on the Court. There was a celebration on the right when he got Kavanaugh and then Barrett (her replacing a liberal icon) on the Court. At least one of the two or Gorsuch are putting a knife to him. I would expect Roberts to go against him on these items, but Roberts alone would not be enough, either Gorsuch, Kavanaugh or Barrett has to come along.

The PA cases include the ones brought by PA GOP & Lin Wood.

(12,182 posts)It makes me leery to post snark, because those people - especially the ones that were needlessly killed, or even exposed - deserve our respects.
I will say, however, that "a really bad morning for Trump" is perforce a good morning for America, and a good morning for most of the rest of the world.
