Remain Calm! All Is Well!!

If I didn’t know better, I’d swear Trump was thinking of Wonder Woman’s invisible jet.
I’m not really sure I do know better, though. Freud was right. (It’s a fucking Doonesbury cartoon, too.) "Legal" criminals are fine? I know, small beer; but fucking hell, these people are too stupid to know how to wipe their own asses.

Cheap Bastard in Chief (and several of his personal lawyers now work for DOJ):
A panel of judges on the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday denied Trump's request to have Justice Department lawyers argue in his appeal of columnist E. Jean Carroll's defamation case against Trump.

DOJ lawyers had argued that since some of Trump's alleged conduct fell within the scope of his role as president, the Justice Department should be able to defend the president in court.

"Substitution is required because once the Attorney General certifies that a defendant is acting within the scope of his office or employment, the United States is the party defendant unless and until a court rules to the contrary," they argued.
Or maybe Trump thinks immunity means he gets free legal services, too. Anyway, the court ruled to the contrary.
