Oh good lord -a lanyard to go with the pop beads.

That’s nothing. I’m old and had to walk three miles to school in freezing Chicago winters wearing a thin blouse and Capri slacks (until I got busted by the Chicago police for cross-dressing).

I remember when my father said to me, ā€œDon’t worry. They let you get away with it when you’re a starā€ when I made a mess doing watersports on the bed with a call girl in a 5 star hotel suite.

That she calls her self a Christian is not inconsistent with this behavior. Not at all.

Exactly… he created the case for obstruction by his own actions and now he is creating the case for collusion. Mueller knows that the longer he waits, the easier his job becomes.

Yup, always perfectly ok to help your child in illegal endeavors.

It’s a self-serving qualifier that is absurd and completely untrue. The whole thing, from the misleading first statement, the evolving followup statements to Sekulow’s bald faced lying is just completely ridiculous

No.Credibility.Whatsoever.

Q1. Yes. And they lose their 5th Amendment protections and any lies they tell are prosecutable.

Q2. Doubtful. Issuing a second pardon would be a blatant obstruction of justice and wouldn’t fly. That doesn’t mean he wouldn’t do it. Just that the courts would likely void it on contact.

Meanwhile, prosecutors would be racking up yet another charge against both of them.

ā€œPlease excuse Donnie, Jr. from his collusion today. His dog ate his common sense.
Signed,
Donnie, Jr.s Fatherā€

So they’ve been reduced to one last defense:

Hey, he’s a FATHER, so…you know…he was being a FATHER…

We’re down here at the bottom of the bottom of the fucking barrel at the ā€œHey, he’s a FATHERā€ defense. Pathetic.

Dude, fucking resign already. Seriously.

You beat me to it - I was just going to write a version of that and post it and we lost power. It’s raining.

And cold = I had to go put on a sweater…

Josh M said it well in his editorial. Trump knows people are ā€œafter himā€, but he and members of The Family and WH staff members, including Sarah, seem not to fully understand the legal threats they may be facing. They will not shut up. Sarah ought to be very careful about repeating the lies of others.

Sanders confirmed Trump’s involvement of writing the statement while on AF1. Rick Wilson responds with:

How long will Trump’s attorneys put up with this shit. She should not have answered any questions wrt the statement. Stupid they are all stupid

It’s true - they are all extremely reckless. It’s almost unimaginable that one could gather that many clueless and reckless people together but by god he has.

Sekulow’s fundie logic:

Lying for G-d is OK, even expected.
G-d wanted tRump to be Prez (He’ll bring all the Jews back to the Holy Land as a requisite in bringing forth the End Times.)
Therefore, lying for tRump is doing G-d’s work here on earth.

Hosanna.

You think I’m joking?? Not at all. These people are sick. Anyone willing to let that lying crapshoot of flaming pathology make shit up daily and willing to defend it, has their head screwed on backwards or up their own ass. tRump’s enablers are almost as sick as he is, and long before he tapped them to fill these various jobs he has them in. This Predator-in-chief knew exactly what he would be getting when he brought in nutjobs like Sekulow. Hard to believe this guy is a lawyer though.
