I had a dream, in the room where it happened. (Sorry, for the smooshed quote)
The proceeding of the indictment of Donald Trump had several unusual things. At least, that’s what some of the pros said.
1. The warning to not commit any crimes.
2. Specifically, not to talk to any of the potential witnesses. (and I assume co-defendants, and jurors.)
Andrew Weissmann said in his 21 years as a prosecutor and five years as a defense attorney he had never heard such a warning from a judge.
It was at that moment that I started to have a dream…
I dreamed that Donald threw a gum wrapper on the floor in the hallway as he left the courtroom, and that he got immediately arrested, hauled back into the same courtroom and thrown in jail.
But it was only a dream. A fleeting moment…
But in reality, at the hearing, sitting in the back of the room were the other judges. You know it’s bad when the rest of the bench is there to see you indicted.
Over at Fox some guy from North Dakota who is running for President was criticizing Biden because he’s letting the Russians sell oil to China. What? (letting?) I guess he liked Trump cow towing to Putin. He also seemed to be going on about our poor economic situation. I guess he doesn’t look at the economic stats. Then he said he’d cut out paper work in the government and that would reduce 400,000 jobs. Great economic plan? I don’t think so. And the Fox folks are saying this is all a distraction from what Biden is really doing. Yeah, I mean we have a former president who for the first time in our history tried to seize power and now justice is being served and they say Biden is doing it. Do they forget what Trump did? Using the levers of power to humiliate, badger, and go after people he didn’t like? I think it will be a great wake up for many Fox viewers to hear what Donald did. They’ve never heard it because Fox turned the audio off when the Jan 6th Committee was holding hearings.
What I keep waiting to hear when someone says Trump did a great job is what exactly are they talking about?
55 Years here, 80 somewhere else. It adds up. Trump is what? 77 years old? 77+55+80 = 212 years? he’ll be out in 2158. Seems too soon.
Trump then said he needs another indictment so his numbers will do up. My patience for his stupid followers is running thin. When I googled the question regarding Trump serving time, the only response I got was hardly.
Now he is saying he is serving time so his followers won’t. ?
I am so lost.
It’s the Jesus thing. “He died for your sins.”
The weird part of this is what Trump claims to protecting “his people” from is the exact actions he would take if back in power.
