Busy day today! David Waldman has not one, but two days of Trump embarrassment to cover while Greg Dworkin hauls in not one, but two big Rafts O’ Stories™!
Donald K. Trump is a weak loser and everything he does sucks. The yutes that thought they’d love him are beginning to hate him. Bringing back Columbus Day from the ashes may not be the October surprise he and Gops hope for. New York Republican Mike Lawler found out how much Trump stink rubs off at his recent town hall.
Trump wants to see the people that complain at these town halls to be not “treated nicely”. Some nuances to that request need to be worked out, as the six men now criminally charged in the assault of Teresa Borrenpohl in Idaho can attest. OTOH, unidentified balaclava-hooded men accosted people in a Virginia courthouse, and the people who challenged their authority will be the ones prosecuted.
Trump demands that people who might not like him are thrown out, fired or arrested. That’s a lot of people, and that number will only grow. Taking out the judiciary is certain to streamline his process.
Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan has been charged with two felonies as an example to uppity judges. A former New Mexico judge has now been arrested for protecting a guy ICE thought really seemed MS-13ish.
60 Minutes Executive Producer Bill Owens quit, and correspondent Scott Pelley pretty much announces that the show will be crap from now on. Summer Redstone didn’t think that his daughter Shari Redstone should take over Viacom/Paramount. Turns out, the old man was right.
All of this disgust that Trump and the Gop are earning might be good news for Democrats, had anyone liked Democrats. Democrats demand moderation! Or, to fight back! Or, to move right! Or, to redefine themselves! Or, to STFU. What was the question again?
