Trump

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

Literally everyone sees right through his bankruptcy claims. The only way he doesn't lose millions is if someone shoots him first - which would be the ultimate irony.

Whether anything comes of it or not, there are millions of very happy Americans right now.

...and probably an equal amount digging in.

Yup...

Almost like they don't understand how Search Warrants work...

Ha!

Hope he hangs

Biden, Harris and Pelosi are doing a great job despite Brexit. Inflation didn't go up last month and they are not entering recession.

 

[Alan]

Er, what's the link between those three and Brexit?

Russians and dodgy Russian money is my guess

Someone's tried to make a statement at the Capitol, I guess.

Liking the forever changing excuses on the raid

- The files were planted (big Nige leading this one)
- OK they weren't planted but nothing important was there
- OK potentially important but Trump declassified them before taking them
- OK yes there is some top secret stuff but Obama did the same (he didn't)

Sounds a bit like

There were no parties
If there were, no rules were broken
The Prime Minister believed this was a work meeting
Look over there - is that a beer bottle I spy in Kier Starmer's hand?

Yep but on a slightly more serious note.

Some great stuff out there such as his lawyers telling the FBI they had all of the TS docs...then the FBI found some more.

Seems the main defence is he thought his bid to overturn the election would succeed so he could keep them.
Presume he still believed that when he was asked to return any documents on numerous occasions since then.

Effectively means he still thinks he is president and therefore decides what is classified and is not.

Interesting take on events.

 

[Alan]

He really believes that he's on the right side of history.

He is also seem to think that saying "I'm taking this list of names and addresses for covert agents home, consider it declassified" was enough.

You know, I've thought the same thing, myself.
