Only in Russia is defenestration a solution. Oh, yeah, and in 1930’s [USA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSm68IEDDT0). So long ago that it is no longer true 😉 ---

Trump.” I did nothing wrong on January 6th, and nothing wrong with the Democrats’ fix on the Document Hoax, that is, unless the six previous Presidents did something wrong also…. ---

I’ve been thinking about this, and why do I feel, that if the special master’s review is cancelled, that Trump is going to want to sue the SM, their assistant, or even Loose Cannon for the daily cost Trump was obligated to pay for that assistant. After all, if it wasn’t needed, -HE- shouldn’t have to pay for it, right? 🙄 ---

Trump will sue anyone for anything at the drop of a hat, or even without one. Means nothing since it rarely gains him anything, and if and when it actually goes to court, often gets his own lawyers in trouble. Yet he keeps doing it. See definition of “insanity”: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
