Trump’s having a meltdown. He broke his one day record for tweets yesterday at 142. They were all retweets of his sycophants licking his boots and saying the trial is rigged.
I liked this one from this morning.
That’s right. The Trump defense is that the Democrats are trying to interfere with the 2020 election. They’re almost literally saying “I know you are but what am I?”
But he finally weighed in himself this morning:
Not true, of course. They invited Trump to send lawyers and witnesses. They also issued subpoenas and people were told to ignore them.
He stonewalled the Democrats completely, offered no witnesses, no documents, no testimony. The ones who testified did so in defiance of his orders.
He fails to mention that Obama wasn’t asking for help with his re-election in return. But he thinks that’s fine. After all, he got away with eagerly accepting help from Russia last time, amirite?
I hear on my TV this morning that some of the Republicans are calling for the smelling salts over Jerry Nadler saying they are engaged in a cover-up because it was so rude and insulting.
Seriously. They are almost surely going to acquit the man who calls Adam Schiff “Schifty Schiff” on a daily basis because the Democrats were rude? Why yes, they will say that. And the media will chase down every Democrat and ask them to disavow those comments and admit that they were very, very wrong to even think that the Republicans were covering up for Trump.
That bizarre dynamic is partly responsible for what got us here today.
Meanwhile, Trump seems to be a little bit worried about this as well:
What do you suppose brought that on?
Well …
What are the odds he got on the horn to Rupert over that one?
