Perry and Matlock are both dead. They each won 100% of their cases in 60 minutes or less.

We understand, Donnie. The nation needs a better president… strike that. America needs a president.

And yet, you’ll notice he has yet to take on Avenatti in a tweet. No mockery, no names, no accusations of lying, just Twitter-crickets. He’s terrified.

Maybe better he needs to line up some prison lawyers for the show that will certainly continue in Leavenworth.

Maybe he shouldn’t have people talking about the case on tv at all.

Absolutely! His silence speaks volumes.

He wants an Avenatti, but all he could get was a Giuliani and a Sekulow.

Since the Dotard plainly eeds a criminal defense attorney, I would recommend Jimmy Smits as Victor Sifuentes in LA Law. It’s OK that he’s Puerto Rican, isn’t it? Of course, there is always the risk that he might change his name to Matt Santos, run for President and win.

HERE’S an idea Donnie. Stop trying to cover up crap. Co-operate with Mueller. Spend your considerable tweeting time on the Russians hacking the election and limit your ‘Obama Hillary Democrats’ hatred. Suspend your greatest ‘lies’ that you reiterate to feel good. You did NOT have the biggest inauguration in history, you do NOT support women, etc.etc.

There is a basic truth that Trump fully gets and most of us forget and ignore. Marketing really is everything. If he and his horde successfully paint Mueller as being on an illegal witch hunt, he will win in the court of public opinion.
If he keeps attacking and changing the subject when any of his many lies is proven wrong, namely by painting a curious and honest media as being fake, he effectively destroys the media as an independent voice.
He is winning by whining, by insulting and attacking - truly the saddest spectacle ever seen on the flat earth. He learned Mein Kampf well, possibly the only book he ever glanced at cover to cover.

That would require a complete brain and heart transplant. No, those “witches” are each a piece of of who he is being exposed one by one.

Relying on TV/Twitter attorneys is part of the problem, Donnie.
Also, you’re a crook
And a liar
And a bigot
And don’t care to learn the ‘Presidential 101’ basics
And have an enabling majority in Congress

he needs better “TV lawyers”

Liberty University President Jerry Falwell, Jr. on Saturday presented President [sic] Trump with an honorary Doctorate of Laws at the Lynchburg, Va. school’s commencement ceremony. Paired with his experience as a TV personality that should be more than enough to turn this witch hunt into an easy DIY makeover.

The Iranians share the objectives of the American People. Honestly, they’d just have to agree to a Trump International Resort (with proper tax break and unlimited irrigation for golf course) in Tehran and we’re practically allies again.
A little money laundering wouldn’t hurt their case, either.

Trump’s own staff knows the administration is rife with crime.
