DOJ Tries To Sidestep MAGA Judge With Quick Appeal, Enraging Trump - TPM – Talking Points Memo

I have never really figured out why Cannon is involved in the criminal case in the first place. The Federal Rules make provision for return of personal property. What harm does it do to follow the Rules of Criminal procedure?

Can Trump articulate any real risk of loss or harm that might result from following the same rules as everybody else?

They can read. But the new-fashioned way is to simply assert things you wish were true. It’s a bit of an innovation to do it in a legal proceeding and they haven’t worked out all the bugs, but in general you just say stuff. No relationship to what we older folks call reality at all.

He can barely articulate sentences made up of one syllable words.

It’s also called throwing things at the wall, in this case words, and seeing what sticks. It’s TFG’s MO and sometimes it works for him but we don’t expect coherence any longer.

The harm is that the complete illegitimacy of the judiciary, caused by Mitch McConnell the day Rump took office and there was no Justice Garland, is cemented a little further with each minute that waste of carbon roams free.

When he gets to the point he cites her race and gender that’s when I’ll be afraid.

Mr. I Paid Out $32 Million To Shut An Accuser Up tells His Ass-Holeyness to flee to Honduras!

"So, if I were Trump, I’d, you know, be down in Honduras or something and take a couple of weeks," O’Reilly added. "Get out of the cycle!"

It might imply that he’s subject to “the same rules as everybody else”. Which would be devastating to his whole schtick.
