My husband shared a table with a Brit local [View all]

today in Norfolk.

The Brit asked my husband about our trip, how long, etc, and my husband said we'd self-deported from the US. We don't know when we'll go back.

That comment led to Trump.

The Brit had been an editor of the WSJ for over 30 years. He said 1) the WSJ doesn't have an algorithm favorable to Trump 2) Trump is in it up to his neck with Epstein so is in real trouble, particularly if he keeps antagonizing Murdock and 3) as Murdock has aged, he's become more impatient, has much less tolerance for stupidity, and is easier to anger. He's less predictable. So Rupert will not play with Trump over Trump's lawsuit.

This Brit also said, once Trump has lost Murdock, what's he got?

He also thought Americans were very ignorant to have voted for Trump since it was clear what they were voting for from the first term.
