... "you get indicted for interfering with a presidential election where you have every right to do it"you get indicted and your poll numbers go up," Trump said. ...

So, two lies in one sentence.

His poll number have not been going up because of the latest indictment, and he has no right to interfere in a valid election.

Setting up Fake Electors is illegal... one only need ask those in prison today.

As is sending a violent mob to the Capitol Building to interrupt the peaceful transfer of power in this country... long enough for the Fake Electors' Fake Ballots to be counted.

" ... his face streaming with sweat, his chest heaving beneath his rumpled alpaca coat. One somehow pities him, despite his so palpable imbecilities. It is a tragedy, indeed, to begin life as a hero and to end it as a buffoon. But let no one, laughing at him, underestimate the magic that lies in his black, malignant eye, his frayed but still eloquent voice. He can shake and inflame these poor ignoramuses as no other man among us can shake and inflame them, and he is desperately eager to order the charge."

Interesting fact.

Five days after the end of that trial William Jennings Bryan's brain literally exploded and he died from apoplexy.

And now you know the rest of the story.

For today's buffoon ... We should be so lucky.

The rest of us did our part to save the country. Garland dropped the ball because he didn't want fascists to call him partisan.

You did your part to save the country by voting for a president that appointed Merrick Garland, who "dropped the ball"?

If you got a dollar for every time you whined and moaned about people who voted for republicans who in turn appointed judges that touched you in your naughty place....well...you'd be one rich fella.

Yes anyone in charge of law enforcement who decides to let an attempted coup go uninvestigated and unprosecuted for 2 years before being dragged into doing his job is someone who dropped the ball.

Do you disagree?

The rights and duties of the President are clearly spelled out in the Constitution.

So I am sure that maga maroons can point out the exactly where the right to interfere or meddle in the election is enumerated in there.
