I confess to back pedaling into Trump territory when I wanted to leave discussions about him in the garbage can. My thread on the read-only break room site has 9,600 replies so I thought I'd bring up a new one.
He's not going away.
Haberman's book is out based on interviews. I won't read it, but the excerpts are interesting. Especially what he says about McConnell, a description that's against the Terms of Service here, but I actually don't disagree with. LOL

“At one point, Trump made a candid admission that was as jarring as it was ultimately unsurprising. ‘The question I get asked more than any other question: “If you had it to do again, would you have done it?”’Trump said of running for president. ‘The answer is, yeah, I think so. Because here’s the way I look at it. I have so many rich friends and nobody knows who they are.’ … Reflecting on the meaning of having been president of the United States, his first impulse was not to mention public service, or what he felt he’d accomplished, only that it appeared to be a vehicle for fame, and that many experiences were only worth having if someone else envied them.”
Do you disagree that the appointment of Jack Smith was unconstitutional?
Yes. Multiple courts have found the appointment of special prosecutors to be constitutional . If you think Jack Smith was illegally appointed, what do you think about Hur and Durham?
The senator also suggested Trump should ignore "illegitimate" court rulings.

"If I had been vice president, I would have told the states, like Pennsylvania, Georgia and so many others, that we needed to have multiple slates of electors and I think the U.S. Congress should have fought over it from there," he continued. "That is the legitimate way to deal with an election that a lot of folks, including me, think had a lot of problems in 2020. I think that's what we should have done."
Therefore, negating my 2020 PA Presidential Vote from "fake elector". Only reason PA didn't indict false electors was wording they used
"Pennsylvania's certificate said the votes they were casting should only be counted if a court found that they were the "duly elected and qualified Electors.”
I saw pictures of RNC attendees with 2x2 bandages covering their right ears, similar to trump's. And yet, the public still doesn't know details about his injury, treatment, etc. The press was all over the White House about which doctor visited when, but all we know about Trump is the obvious square of gauze on his ear.
I saw a comment about the followers who refused to mask to protect fellow citizens are proud to sport a stay-free minipad on the side of their head, LOL.
I watched the acceptance speech. It was basically the same thing he says at his rallies, including Hannibal Lector, plus a description of being injured last Saturday. Yawn.
