I haven’t read the indictment because it will consume much of the so called news for the next year and will probably end up in the big court where Trump will prevail on free speech protections. I’m sure he still believes the election was fraudulent and although Jack Smith can put many on the stand that personally advised Trump to let it go, no fraud that would be of the extent to overturn the results, he is going to believe those who supported his contention as he has the right to. Now if Smith has tapes or writings that have language where the co-conspirators acknowledge that it wasn’t a fraudulent election and went forth with a disinformation campaign then all bets are off and he may be in serious jeopardy. Otherwise, it may end up in the Supreme Court before trial in a summary judgment “motion to dismiss.”

I cannot fathom the interest in Trump. Before the election he stiffed a lot of people in Atlantic City, had a fake charity and a fake university. Trump has the morality of an alley cat - a serial adulterer. He minimized the COVID threat, costing lives. He disrespected the military. His tax cut was unnecessary adding to the national debt. He couldn't accept his election loss, raising an attack by his supporters to the Capitol, tried in several states to obtain votes illegally and pushed a fake narrative regarding the election. He withheld illegally classified info that could compromise the defense of the United States (Biden and Pence were minor and they co-operated immediately)He was a Democrat, then an independent, then a Republican. In reality, his party is himself.

I am reminded of the children's tale of the Emperor's New Clothes; he was naked and only the children saw the reality. Trump's a bad guy, the facts are there, but his party fails to see it.

You would think that in a country of over 300 million, we could find better candidates than these two losers.
