Trump is seeking $10 billion in damages for CBS’s alleged “partisan and unlawful acts of election and voter interference,” which the lawsuit claims were intended to confuse the public and “attempt to tip the scales” toward Democrats in the 2024 presidential election.
I watched most of Harris’ Milwaukee speech. It was great. Obvsiously, she wasn’t “confused and tired.” One line resonates. (paraphrasing from memory) “Trump would come to the White House with an enemies list. I’ll come with a To Do list.”
I do not know how to put this gently or tastefully, so I will factually describe what happened last night in Milwaukee: A former president of the United States held a rally, during which he used a microphone holder on his podium to pantomime the act of giving fellatio.
I could have put it differently. I might have said that “a cognitively impaired man, who has long been showing signs of serious emotional instability and has a history of sexism and racism, engaged in crude behavior in front of a large audience.” But that wouldn’t capture an important reality:
This deeply impaired man is tied in the race to become the next president and could be holding the codes to the U.S. nuclear arsenal in less than three months.

The rest of the article is full of crap we already know and have already talked about, but I’m sharing because I was struck by the utter in-your-face [as it were] forthrightness of these opening paragraphs coupled with the mind-boggling word that I bolded.
I saw the clip and I cannot for the life of me understand it. It certainly looks like what was described but it made no sense in the context of his ranting.
His microphone was malfunctioning for a moment and that was his reaction. Followed by lots of ranting and blaming everyone around for making him look bad. It was a temper tantrum.
And half the country is going to vote for him. Yeah.
