“Trump finally gets to 270.”
Indeed.
My favorite moment: when no one held the door open for Trump–something that may not have happened to him in many decades–and it hit him:
Poor Donald!
It was a small detail, but I noticed it too.
That one was a little more modern, it was the Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy From Company B. I used to dance to it. I love Randy Rainbow, he is just too clever for words.
Looks at copyright date. NM. /wanders off to cry/
- If you were dancing to it at 18 years old, that would make you… 100 years old. You’re not. Relax.
Thank you, I feel much better now. Actually, it was Bette Midler. And I wasn’t 18 quite yet. Not quite so sad now.
I’m a small town Arizona Nextdoor lead. Yeah, I don’t know how it happened either, but surprisingly enough my little piece of MAGA country seems to be shocked silent ATM. If today was enough to silence contrail CT believers, maybe the country has a chance afterall.
I’ve read that Trump showed up in court with a dirty stained collar. Guess no one bothered to tell him about the makeup that rubbed off.
I was saying to my husband the other day, “Can you believe people want to vote for this dude that can’t even master putting on makeup?”
It appears that all 34 counts are for falsifying business records in the first degree. The indictments all say either “to wit, a Donald J. Trump account check and check stub dated [DATE], bearing check number X, and kept and maintained by the Trump Organization.” or “to wit, an invoice from Michael Cohen dated [DATE], marked as a record of Donald J. Trump, and kept and maintained by the Trump organization.”
So It’s not clear to me what exactly he’s been up to.
Cohen fronted money to pay off Daniels then set up a shell company and billed the company monthly fees for lawyering that were paid for by Trump campaign funds, the total coming to the $134,000 paid out plus some extra that went into Cohen’s pocket.
Each count is one of the checks and the entries for them on the TrumpCo books, all misdemeanors, but they’re bumped to class D felony because they were in the furtherance of another crime, to wit, campaign finance fraud under NY law instead of Federal.
At least that’s what I make of it. I’m guessing Legal Eagle will have a video presently.
Did you read the statement of facts that accompanied the indictment? I found it to be pretty clear.
All I had was the list of indictments. The facts are pretty clear now.
I enjoyed this CBC article for its straightforward account of the present situation. One enjoyable aspect is this simple introduction:
It took only a few hours for Donald Trump to inch toward a showdown against the judge overseeing his criminal case.
The cause is an easily predicted variable in this case: the defendant’s mouth.
The former U.S. president trashed the judge, and the district attorney, in a speech on the day of his arrest, not long after he received a warning in court about attacking it.
The other enjoyable thing (in a perverse sort of way) is the accompanying picture, in which the Orange Shitstain’s famous pie-hole forms itself into a perfect impression of an orangutan’s anus. Never tell me that you can’t judge someone by their physical appearance; this is a virtually perfect caricature of an oblivious blowhard.
My brother’s girlfriend at the time said about Bill “I didn’t inhale” Clinton, “there’s no way I’m voting for a guy that doesn’t know how to operate a joint correctly.”
Stop the calls. We have a winner.
6’5"
I don’t encourage anyone to actually try this.
I can’t remember where I saw this originally, but I saw a crawl at the bottom of a tv show (was it The Daily Show? It may have been.) that said that if anyone wanted a full breakdown of all 34 charges against Trump, they should simply google “Donald Trump Rule 34.”
I spit a mouthful of Coke all over my cat by accident in an attempt to stop a spit-take/vomit in my mouth combination.
I’ll wait for the Muppets’ remake.
That was in the Legal Eagle video.
