A man that constantly complains he’s being treated unfairly, moans incessantly about the corrupt system out to get him, would normally be thought of as a loser - hardly a strong leader. Will MAGA supporters ever get tired of his poor-me ranting and whining? So far, they seem to love it: “Let’s make the weak crybaby our President!”

After the guilty verdict, Lara Trump said, “This is a case about politics, pure and simple.” Right you are, Lara. It was your father-in-law’s attempt to illegally affect the 2016 presidential election that was the case against him. (Dirty) politics, pure and simple.

@AmserJ If they were smart, they should’ve gotten at least part of their fees up front!

Uh-oh. Trump’s lawyers better beware. Trump’s meandering, often times WTF rant today at Trump Tower included a few negative tidbits about the way his lawyers managed his defense. Could this be a clue they are about to be fired? And thus give Trump an excuse for stiffing them on their legal fees? Just wondering.

@tgraph52 Unless he’s incarcerated at the time. Very unlikely, but still.

#sports Obviously, it’s all about the money. The playoff system in major pro sports is a joke, especially regarding the NBA, where 2/3 of the teams get into the post-season. It’s 50% for the NHL, 44% for the NFL, and “only” 40 % of MLB teams make it to the playoffs. C’mon. Playing hard all year should matter more.

“We’re looking at that,”” Trump said two days ago when asked about his stance on contraceptives. “We’ll have a policy on that very shortly.” Years after his promise of a health care plan layout to replace Obamacare, I’m still waiting for it. This latest statement is sure to follow the same path to nowhere, once reasonable consultants tell him it’s a loser.

Alito strikes again! What an idiot. Another insurrectionist flag at another of his homes documented. Can’t wait to hear what story he makes up about this one.

Really, Nikki? You’re going to vote for Trump? Okay, I can understand why a person like you could never vote for a Democrat. But vote for a man you thought so little of you persisted in running against him when everyone else had folded? Why not just stay home on Election Day and fade away? You must know that, like Pence, there’s no place for you at the Trump table.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts Unfortunately, with the Senate being what it is, impeachments would be impossible. Ask Trump!

@Sr0bi Emphasis on “all.” 😉

#SCOTUS Reforming the Supreme Court, in light of its recent scandals and obvious political partisanship is much needed before it loses all credibility. I recommend a thorough discussion of how it could be done - without violating the Constitution: https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/policy-solutions/supreme-court-term-limits

@MakerWerks @LnzyHou When you have millions of Americans who have been convinced the election of Biden will be the end of this country as we know it (instead of the other way around!), and that if Biden does get elected, it will have been fraudulent, with prominent Republicans refusing to say if they’ll accept the election results (unless Trump wins), we will have riots in the streets. We’re in trouble, peeps. Big trouble. No way can Biden really “win.”

@LnzyHou My view: Even if he’s convicted, and even if the appeal is rejected up to the Supreme Court before the election (I seriously doubt that could happen), if he gets elected, nothing will happen for four years. If he leaves the White House after that - and that’s in doubt - he will be given house arrest at Mar-a-Lago instead of a prison term.

Now that college classes are ending for the summer, where will the protestors go next? The’ll have to wait three months for the Democratic National Convention.

Nope, it’s back! Aargh!

I have no idea what I did except view the settings on my iPad, but now my columns are back to normal. Whew!

@ceorl Didn’t work, but thanks.

Please help this computer-challenged user. My screen on this site now is widened, so I have to scroll sideways to read a post. How do I condense the posts to read like they used to?

Trump today claimed his trial was happening too fast. He didn’t say, “at warp speed,” so he missed that opportunity. But he’s trying to have it both ways. His lawyers are using the delay tactic of not stipulating to anything the prosecution presents, no matter how mundane, forcing all these boring witnesses to testify that, yes, this is the document, this is the tape, etc. It’s putting their client to sleep!
