    Yeah, when people wonder about his shameless, demented, or vile posts, we aren't the receivers of that message.

    There's enough of his base (~30% of Republicans) that will do something out of it, so it's better to anticipate how they'd react rather than to the initial dumb tweets.

    The man isn't stupid. He knows exactly what he is doing.

    The way things are going can probably add another obstruction of Justice charge.

    This is why I didn’t feel it mattered what Trump is finally indicted for. It could be jaywalking but he’s bound to make it worse.

    Publicly threatening a DA investigating you is likely a crime in and of itself, right?

    This is like yelling fire in a crowded theater which gets no first amendment protection, right?

    Sure it’s just a coincidence that soon after reports that indictments were happening soon that…

    I find the wording amusing. I would have thought Trump would want to allege that Biden, Hunter, and the Biden family were being unfairly shielded from prosecution. But, according to his lawyers, the Bidens are being treated fairly. So that's good.

    It depends on what evidence is on the recording. But that is potentially huge.

    Hmm... and trump's side isn't aware this happened... I wonder if that suggests meadow's ratted him out?

    I am sure that book will make the NYT's best coloring book sellers list.
