I wonder if he talks that way because he always holds the dictionary upside down.

There are a few videos out there for the sentencing of Tina Peters , the Mesa County clerk who was found guilty of election interference . She received a sentence of 9 years, the scathing commentary by the judge is worth a listen .

And for being the master criminal at the center of the whole election interference conspiracy, Trump will receive a sentence of being the next US president for at least the next four years, most of which time he will spend golfing, and it might be much longer than four years if he decides to declare himself dictator for life. To quote Yakov Smirnoff, “America! What a country!”

That was 10 minutes of delightful schadenfreude. In addition, I had never seen this body cam footage of her being arrested, and in light of her sentencing it is also a pleasure to watch.

That’s almost SovCit levels of delusion about how cops operate. “Oh, she said to let go, now we must comply!”

Who in their right minds thinks that is how being arrested works?

I don’t think that reality had set in during that 1:21. I bet it has by now. And I bet it’s not pretty.
