I have no idea where he finds the time.

This man has learned nothing from history. He’d have to read to do that. Just another lie.

In 1972 Trump because of bone spurs was deemed permanently ineligible for military service.
This is what Trump was doing when he was “observing” Nixon.
A footnote, Trump cannot remember whether it was his left or right. He will need to study his history further, I think.

Trump is precious.

I thought he learned all of his history through osmosis. After all, surely he had at least one Thanksgiving dinner with his Uncle John, who taught electrical engineering at MIT!

The difference was that back then there was the special prosecutor was Leon Jaworski who understood the severity of charges in the context of the protection of the republic, now we had bumbling Robert Mueller that decided to give a pass to Trump and let Congress deal with it, even when it was clear what Barr had in mind the coward chickened out and hid behind a a bush of legalese.
