Trump: What they’re doing with this election interference and the Senate needs to step up. The House is doing a lot of things… They have something on Mitch McConnell. There’s no way he’s doing this. They got something on Mitch McConnell pic.twitter.com/3zEISyKGa7

"Somebody save me from this Jack Smith guy!”

Trump: Deranged Jack Smith. He’s a deranged human being. You take a look at that face, you say that guy is a sick man pic.twitter.com/GdmoTbcRuk

That man is scared shitless.

Trump: When you go into these new homes with showers, the water drips down slowly. You have suds.. beautiful nice wonderful suds. A lot of money. Proctor and Gamble. All that crap that they sell. It takes you 10 minutes to wash your hair pic.twitter.com/2ex0FZsDxr

Literally scared out of his mind.

Inventing his own reality in real time.

I don’t know if these attacks are enough to revoke Trump’s bail…

...and so far I don’t think so. But Jack Smith put that post in the record to start building a case. And it’s going to be entertaining to watch him assemble it.

He won’t get much help there. Even the ones who pretend to like him because they are scared of MAGA can’t wait to see him locked up. https://t.co/Ggn24odsIO

No court is going to force a prosecutor to testify before Congress about an ongoing investigation. And here we hit the rule of law quandary:

Trump wants Congress to help him; but Congress can’t interfere with the administration of justice. Not that directly. Which is why we have to be careful who we put into power. Re-elect Trump, and who will stop him? Aside from the courts, almost no one can. The rule of law rests with the courts, and with the prosecution. And the prosecution is very, very powerful. Trump is right about that.
