CNN: Judge & Trump attorneys agree on 8/28 first hearing date. Would come 5 days after first GOP debate which he has said he will not attend.
John Bolton: "If he gets a hung jury, the people would see that as an acquittal and he would ride that to the nomination"
💯
I'm predicting a 2-1 split on acquitted/hung vs convicted. Smith's case is good but people are still divided on Trump & it only takes one with "reasonable doubt" to fail to convict.
"Oh, it looks like he's not going to take questions [on the tarmac]" - CNN reporter on the ground at the airport when Trump landed.
Duh!
I'm not sure which I love more:
That there are just a multitude of former & current Trump Lawyers for the networks to go to for reactions.
or
That they all have incredibly distinct looks.
"I encourage everyone to read [the indictment] in full. Jan 6th was an unprecedented assault on American democracy based on lies from the defendant to disrupt the process"
"LEO on 1/6 did not just defend the building and those within it, but the very principles of our country."
"My office will seek a speedy trial and must emphasize the allegation is only an accusation and the defendant must be considered innocent in the court of law"
(lol)
And no Q&A from Jack Smith
Does Former Trump Attorney Tim Parlatore not own a collared shirt?
Suits are on the way out for sure but if you're an attorney appearing on CNN... you should at least have some lapels.
CNN: Civil War in Russia
FOX: Wagner turns against Putin
MSNBC: Trump, Trump, Trump
OAN: Satanic Temple Stunt
For a Republican propaganda outlet, CNN sure is talking some shit about Trump in the aftershow. 🤔
“will you commit to accepting the results of the 2024 election?”
“ if it’s an honest outcome”
“So that’s a no.”
💀
Aaaaand he called her nasty person!
“ did you ever show those documents anybody?’
“ not really’
“ Not really?”
“ not that I know of”
“You said you respected Putin, do you still respect him today?’
“He made a big mistake”
“What was his mistake?’
“Going in”
Not sure why everybody expected this to be a warm and fuzzy interview. You could cut the tension between these two with a knife.
Responding to an audience question on title 42 expiring: “Tomorrow will be a day of infamy. We will have tens of thousands of people flowing over the border.”
It’s really weird that she’s not fact checking him on this nine month abortion nonsense he keeps going on about. He’s said it like 5 or 6 times now.
A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production.
Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
