114 Days until the election on November 3rd
194 Days until the Inauguration on January 20, 2021
There have been two rulings by the Supreme Court recently, both bad for Donald, but also a victory of sorts for him.
The Supreme Court kicked both back to lower courts to work out the details, which will probably delay any details coming out until after the election. That is Trump’s victory.
However, the court ruled 7-2 in favor of Congress and in favor of state prosecutors and they were 9-0 in saying no one is above the law. Thomas was one of the dissenting opinions and thought that this case placed too much of a “mental burden” on the president. Mental Burden? Trump? Yeah, well asking him to think at all could be called a mental burden. He’s not done it his whole life, why start now?
In other hysterically funny things to come out of their rulings Trump’s lawyer Jay Sucksalot (or something like that) said that subpoenaing this president would be a stigma on him. Think about that. Asking him to comply with the law like any other citizen was a stigma. Not the fact that he committed adultery with a porn actress. Not that he did it months after his fifth child was born to his third wife. Not that he tried to pay off said porn actress to buy her silence so as to not hurt his chances of winning the election. Not that he tried to hide these facts from the electorate. Not that he probably committed a crime in paying off the porn actress. No, none of that was bad. But a subpoena! Oh my god, the shame!
Yeah, pretty funny.
Pretty sad.
In other news, a friend of our reported that she had a buddy that went to Myrtle Beach last weekend. Hardly anyone was wearing a mask and the restaurants were packed indoors and out. No masks. Wonder why South Carolina is having a Covid outbreak?
Speaking of outbreaks, it seems wherever the president has held rallies there have been spikes in Covid. Huh? Who could have guessed? Oh the health officials in those states, the news people, everyone but the governors and the president. Stunning.
Now the president is scheduled to go to New Hampshire for a rally. Good idea. It is one of two states where the number of cases is going down. Maybe, he can get their numbers back up?
Joe Biden gave a terrific speech yesterday. Here’s a guy trying to unite the country, trying to make people’s lives better, trying to fight this epidemic. Multiple epidemics in fact: Corona Virus, stupidity, economic, unemployment, … yeah, we got a lot of problems and all of this could have been avoided. Never forget that.
Justice Roberts in writing the majority opinions spent quite a bit of time on the Aarom Burr trial, which reminds us of the play Hamilton and the signature song “In the Room Where It Happened,” which John Bolton ripped off to title his book.
In a opinion given by Eric Swalwell yesterday, reference was made to Bolton and being in the room where it happened. Swalwell made the point that Bolton had not been in the room where it happened. Swalwell said that room is where you raise your right hand and swear to tell the truth. Bolton did not enter that room.
Bolton failed the basic duty of citizenship.
Pretty sad.
