Having A Normal One, As The Kids Say

'Live in hell!': Trump flips out on Pelosi for calling him a 'scared puppy' https://t.co/6eA8BAaSzD

On Truth Social he wrote, "I purposely didn’t comment on Nancy Pelosi’s very weird story concerning her husband, but now I can because she said something about me, with glee, that was really quite vicious. 'I saw a scared puppy,' she said, as she watched me on television, like millions of others, that didn’t see that." 

"I wasn’t 'scared'," the former president insisted before adding, "Nevertheless, how mean a thing to say! She is a Wicked Witch whose husbands journey from hell starts and finishes with her. She is a sick & demented psycho who will someday live in HELL!"

He’s scared shitless.

Keep talking. You’re begging for the judge to slam you down. pic.twitter.com/8AdSXKvj4C

He’s also burning up other people’s money.

Trump says his legal team will be asking for the federal judge overseeing the election subversion case to recuse herself and a venue change. CNN's team notes more than three dozen Jan. 6 defendants have asked to move their cases out of DC, but no judge has ever said yes.

Snowballs have a better chance in hell.

A good link on why Trump's venue request will likely fail.

And now DOJ can point to Riley Williams and Oath Keeper verdicts to show DC juries can be fair.

Plus, w/Trump, media coverage tainting any jury has been national. https://t.co/5wdAneYRN0

And yeah, it ain’t just politics:

If this were about getting a cross-section of America, the N.D. Va. is right there. They only point to West Virginia for this unserious argument because Trump likes linking whiteness and citizenship. That was a huge part of the Big Lie: Black voting power was inherently suspect. https://t.co/9cThWQtGLy

Irony alert:

There are a lot of nonsense claims about what delayed the DOJ investigation. But one thing that CLEARLY caused 9 months of delay were Executive Privilege claims Trump made AFTER SCOTUS upheld Chutkan on Executive Privilege.https://t.co/75Aij1qgLX

Odds are Trump doesn’t remember Judge Chutkan for that ruling.
