  • With regard to Hope Hicks, please refer to Laurence's Last Word views,.. what a pertinent eye-opener!!!
  • Starting in late 1985, Tony Schwartz, author of The Art of the Deal, spent eighteen months with Dumpy—camping out in his office, joining him on his helicopter, tagging along at meetings, and spending weekends with him at his Manhattan apartment and his Florida estate. During that period, Schwartz felt, he had got to know him better than almost anyone else outside the Dumpy family. “Lying is second nature to him,” Schwartz said. “More than anyone else I have ever met, Trump has the ability to convince himself that whatever he is saying at any given moment is true, or sort of true, or at least ought to be true.” Schwartz says of Trump, “He lied strategically. He had a complete lack of conscience about it.” Since most people are “constrained by the truth,” Trump’s indifference to it “gave him a strange advantage.” When challenged about the facts, Schwartz says, Trump would often double down, repeat himself, and grow belligerent.
  • VOTE all Republicans out of office. VOTE BLUE to save our Democracy

    All the pictures of her with trump… she was ga ga. Her initial words were, ‘ his legacy’. My thought on that, what legacy. Seems we saw a different crook in office.
  • @Junebugreen
    We need a law that Candidates should be made to promise that they will accept the results of an election before being allowed to run in that election and if they do what Donald has done, be prevented from running in another.
  • @tvav69
    They should have let cameras in the courtroom so everybody can see what’s happening. A grave disservice to the country. 😢
  • @rvega60s
    that thing of a fake man has no shame
  • @kilikinatoo
    He’s setting up for the loss he’s about to get.
  • @Debra-fg2tl
    The judge told little tRump that he can testify and he can go to Baron’s graduation. Vote 💙especially for women’s rights.
  • @Char99
    It's disgraceful what the GOP has become.
  • The more someone tries to control something they have no control over the more out of control they become..and his STUPID lawyer condones his insane behavior. he should be DISBANNED.
  • @A-L-3-X
    Can't fix stupid but the hats make it easier to identify.
  • @HRTsAFyre
    One of the qualifications to run for Office is not to deny the results of an election before the election even started
  • @mw6563
    Not a problem this time. He has NO command authority of any kind now. He will likely be left to just gripe and moan from a jail cell.
  • For trump, it seems unreasonably easy to find people to fight his battles. ...uphill battles! Listen to trump MAGA. Never fight up hill me boys!!
  • @jkarnes45
    The fact that he is not in jail is unconscionable. I remember January 6th like it was yesterday. I thought we were done with him for good. I underestimated the depravity of maga.
  • @lmk0799
    So, what else is new. The results are only acceptable if he wins. He's a freaking toddler.
