Keeping up with Trump

[Angel]

"The President in particular is very much a figurehead—he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it. […] Very very few people realize that the President and the Government have virtually no power at all, and of these few people only six know whence ultimate power is wielded." - who can name what book this quote is from?

Anyways, don't blame me. I voted for kodos.

Binger, this will make you spill your holy water:

The Fulton County Grand Jury handed down 10 indictments. Now we have to wait and find out what the indictments say.

Why do you think this will make me spill holy water?

I think that many people who enjoy getting news about Trump will love this news. It will definitely fix a daily jones. I do not think that the people who mainline this news will enjoy all the consequences of the actual facts, actual conditions and actual reactions.

Trump's legal team wants to set a jury trial for April 2026 because of the immensity of the evidence against Trump. They are hoping that Trump will get elected as President and issue a pardon to himself for all his crimes before starting on a new set of crimes. What else can defense lawyers do when faced with a mountain of evidence against their client?


**Correction - Fulton County issued a 41-count indictment against Trump and his corrupt practices coconspirators.
