Thoughts for the Day 20240126

•  With all the civil and criminal judgments against D. Trump
• Totaling perhaps over 500 million USD
• I am grimly delighted and eagerly anticipating
• Trump declaring bankruptcy to
• avoid paying these civil and criminal fines
• play the martyr
• I'm waiting for legal/professional sanctions 
• against A. Habba
• for her actions in the state and federal courts
• disgraceful
• contemptuous
• Will D. Trump flee the country?
• Every time he's losing a court case he then
• runs as fast as his little feet can take him
• complains with bitter vitriol
• that he's the victim
• extols his followers to violence
• And there are more civil and criminal cases to come
• far surpassing R. Reagan for political corruption
• Green Eagle on D. Trump's "win" in New Hampshire
• 'So, DeSantis dropped out.  
• My guess at that point was that Trump and Haley would pretty much split DeSantis' 22 points, 
• giving each 11 points, 
• so the final result of the New Hampshire race should have been something like this: 
• Haley: 33 points; 
• Trump 63 points.  
• Instead, 
• of course, 
• Haley got 44 points in New Hampshire, 
• and Trump only managed to weakly pick off 2 points from DeSantis's voters, 
• coming in around 54 points.
• To my mind, 
• this is a colossal failure of momentum.  
• It is not that this violent man and the hate-filled base that supports him could barely bully his own party's voters into giving him more than a bare majority, 
• but that, as I think is obvious, 
• something has gone seriously wrong with his march to the White House.'
