It’s darn right creepy is what it is. And, it implies that there was a chosen one. “So, you raped somebody else Donnie?” ---

Hasn’t any of his “crack” legal team told him the constitution doesn’t say one thing about how political parties choose their candidates? His cracked legal team should inform the dumbass that the 25th Amendment is not a Word document that you pull up and modify. And then explain to him what a Word document is. And work on the constitution while they’re at it. But that’s probably a bridge too far. ---

I saw a piece about his blortings after the E Jean Carroll appeal hearing, and the text said that he “_stood at a podium, flunked by his lawyers …_” oh, wait, do I need new glasses?

Then they can move onto telling him what a _sentence_ is, being sure to explain to him the grammatical term and his upcoming prison term. ---

> [@Euphonious\_Polemic](#): > > “We have a great idea sir! You should insult the judge more before he sentences you. Also, threaten his family. That will scare him into being nicer to you!” The unfortunate (likely) truth is that Trump believes it was that very insulting-and-threatening that achieved for him the delay of his sentencing until after the election. Trump may well think he did _exactly the right thing_ by trying to put Merchan–and his daughter–in the crosshairs. It got him what he needed! Or so Trump probably thinks. So now Trump will be **even more likely** to target others for intimidation via activating MAGA hotheads. ---

"After strong support from legislators in both parties, and his agency receiving over 375,000 comments on their website from tipped employees nationwide, Acosta finally backed down in March 2018. Democratic Senator Patty Murray, who sponsored the Senate bill, said the following: “When President Trump proposed a rule that would have allowed corporations to pocket workers’ tips for themselves, workers across the country organized and made their voices heard. Those workers sent the Trump Administration a message—and I’m pleased that Secretary Acosta listened, reversed course, and worked with me on legislation to make sure that big businesses can’t steal their workers’ tips. “” Rule wasn’t implemented.
