All I know is that some Republican politician tweeted about the lawsuit a few hours before the White House announced that there would be no New Year’s party in Mar-a-Lago. At least one respectable news outlet (NBC, IIRC, in the streaming radio feed I listen to) has suggested that the events are related. ---

They have the immense, soul\*-satisfying knowledge that 100% of their gift will go to fund… um… _something-something-something_ that Donnie thinks is important, without any of the $$ having to be wasted on such nonsense as food, booze, band, waiters, decorations, etc.! WIN-WIN! \*Assuming they have souls. ---

There has also been speculation that it may have to do with the up-coming Jan. 3 anniversary of the assassination of Quds Commander Qasem Suleimani early ~~this~~ last year, with possible trouble with Iran looming.

I’m not going back to the Bushes or the Cheneys.” “This is Donald Trump’s party, and I am a Donald Trump Republican,” Gaetz said. ---

The President of the United States is actively and openly practicing sedition and extortion. If you were constantly being dunked in boiling oil, would the question “What do you find annoying about your situation today?” even be necessary? The problem with trying to deal with Trump’s ideocracy one day at a time is that what he does one day is not wiped clean when the next day comes-it has accumulated to such an extent that, even if by some rare chance he doesn’t say and/or do something bad on a particular day, there is _still_ an incredibly large pile of prior fuckupedness on the agenda to work through. ---

He’s normalized absolute ignoramus with no idea at all of how our government is structured to be in leadership positions. We have rot from the bottom to the top thanks to him. Idiots in his thrall are calling for protests and actual attacks on legislatures and courts, for governors to declare an election invalid and ordain that clown as president for a second term, and at least one idiot who is in a supposedly responsible position calling for the vice-president to delay inauguration until evidence is created, er, found of mass fraud “cheating” the clown of a win.
