Trump wants his sentencing to be delayed until after the election. Well of course he does! And guess what? The request will likely be granted.

Who was the last real-person vice president before Walz? John Nance Garner?

Inflation is down, crime is down, illegal border crossings are down. But according to Trump, they’re worse than ever. Even when the press calls him on that - which they seldom do - Trump calls the questions nasty and a disgrace. And the American public, never known for its acumen, doesn’t know what to think. Gotta hand it to Trump. He learned from the dictators in the past and used their tactics effectively.

Okay, I get that it’s the rate of inflation that’s down, so prices will increase gradually over time, as they always have done. But why can’t we go back to near what the prices were before we got hit with the big iinflation?

So, inflation is the lowest in three years. Does that mean prices will go down? Nope. The “experts” say it won’t matter. WTF? Prices went up because of inflation, these same experts said. Ergo, they should go down when inflation goes down, right? (Scratches head.) To use an old cross-examination tactic, “Were you lying to us then or lying to us now?”

@ToolPackinMama Not a mystery at all. We’re not going to see sentencing ever, most likely, due to SCOTUS throwing a monkey wrench into every legal issue facing Trump. The judges involved will probably retire before the cases move forward, and the replacements won’t want to get involved in the quagmire. Even after the dust finally settles after Harris wins in November, everyone will say, “Who cares?” And that will be it.

@thedisasterautist The Israeli goal seems to be eliminating Gaza as a place for Palestinians to live. I doubt Hamas is even there anymore.

What, there are still buildings left in Gaza to bomb?

Whew! Never expected France would give the U.S women trouble in Olympic basketball, but they sure did. They were tenacious on defense and rebounding and forced numerous American turnovers. We were fortunate to get that one-point victory, which enabled us to tie China for number of gold medals. Next stop, LA!

Iran, if you’re listening . . .

Looks like the U.S will get the most medals in the Olympics this year - and more than our winning number in Tokyo - but China, which lost to us by one gold in Tokyo will beat us in golds. Just too many events they’re good in while we underperformed. Most notably in swimming, track, and beach volleyball.

@grayman @LnzyHou Thank you!

Did anyone see Lawrence O’Donnell’s takedown of the press’s double standard when it comes to asking questions of Trump vs Biden/Harris? Can someone post that link? My iPad is not cooperating today. Thanks!

@Koore Very likely.

#politics. Harris should not agree to a debate with Trump hosted by Fox - which admitted in the lawsuit they lost that it isn’t a news network. Opinion/entertainment only. Okay, maybe the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens program would like to host a debate?

Thank you, Joe Biden. Thank you for putting a stop to Trump in 2020. Thank you for your leadership in getting important measures passed that stagnated for so long. Thank you for your international expertise in keeping our allies together and getting our political hostages back from Russia. And thank you for your wisdom and patriotism in ceding power to your second in command so we can prevent Trump from having a second go at disaster for the country!
