The late Laura Branigan’s legacy manager is not happy.
Why? Because the Trump family used the ’80s singer’s hit song “Gloria,” without permission, to warm up for their attack on the United States Capitol.

The whole Trump Crime Family has the collective maturity and judgment of Fredo Corleone.

I watched the entire video, and all I saw were thumbs up – not a single “White Power” sign.
They’re just phoning it in at this point.
Sad!

As the tape runs, though, Trump simply nods his head to the beat. Only Branigan seems to know what’s coming.
“I think you’ve got to slow down ,” she sings.
“Before you start to blow it ”
“I think you’re headin’ for a breakdown ”
I’m glad I still have some ability to laugh despite everything. Thanks, Matt Shuham!
Trying to think of any other lyrics I can remember from that song. So far, it’s only something like:
All the voices in your head… calling “Gloria”

To repeat something from an earlier post, it is high time for the Office of Legal Counsel’s opinion that no sitting President may be prosecuted be rescinded immediately. Then Trump, as well as his two errant sons can be arrested and charged with everything from inciting riot to sedition and treason.

There is a thread on Twitter that’s looking at those that broke into the Chamber room. It looks like they were ex military. They were equipped with nylon restraints. Some with hidden bullet proof shields.

Now, now. He’s actually parlayed his way along to a semi-decent career with plenty of money to be comfortable.
Not bad for someone who started out having children kick him in the family jewels.
