Our best hope of not getting more Trump is to keep him boring. This isn’t helping.

Picture it. Trump is elected. The Secretary of State sends the following letter to the President of France: "We regret to inform you that we are unable to attend Monsieur le President's birthday party. The terms of Mr. Trump's parole forbid him from traveling beyond the borders of the United States. Have a good time at the party. Respectfully, Etc."

You can’t make this stuff up.

It is ham-fisted, a bit brutish, awkward and, not surprisingly, impolite.

But I think it is accurate.

The sentiment in that message is why he was elected.

And why he could be reelected.

The market sure didn’t mind the indictment… A couple more and the Dow could be back over 35,000…

Trump is increasingly irrelevant to the economy or the market.

Are you sure . . . ?

Are you sure this wasn't written by some anti-Trumper who wanted to make Trump look bad because even Trump can't be this . . .

Teh Dersh is claiming that whoever leaked that there's a forthcoming indictment should be prosecuted. It's a felony, with stiffer penalties than whatever Trump is accused of.

So has anyone come out and said April Fool’s! yet?

[Rainman]

Trump should come out and announce that he's changing to a democrat.
And mean it!

Donald Trump using antisemitic rhetoric

In the hours that followed, Trump sent out at least three other fundraising emails about the indictment, according to a review of an archive at politicalemails.org. All used the same tone, selected all-caps words, and rhetoric as fundraising emails he sent in the roughly two weeks since he told supporters he expected to be arrested.

“They're loaded with antisemitic language, some of which has been used in the past to validate violence against Jews,” said Kurt Braddock, a public communication professor at American University. “There's no other way to describe it — he's using anti-Jewish stereotypes and historical hatred to raise money.”

Braddock pointed to language pinning Bragg’s activity on Soros and presenting Soros as “a shadowy financier” that “feeds into anti-Semitic tropes related to Jews and money,” and references to Soros as part of a “globalist cabal.” The QAnon conspiracy theory is based around the idea of a shadowy cabal going after Trump.
