His lawyers, for all their failings, have managed to keep him out of prison so far. (Having a few judges in his pocket doesn’t hurt.)

And they get 2 senators, same as the 0.172% of Americans living in Wyoming. The US needs constitutional reforms in so many ways.

I’m waiting for the grand opening of the Donald Trump Presidental Library and Public Restroom.

How did she make it through the primary?

I’m assuming 2L soda bottles are also a remnant of this era.

Bring ouch y’er dead. *BONG* Bring ouch y’er dead.

They are artists, in the same way Subway employees are sandwich artists. (That’s probably rude to Subway workers.)

There is precedent for naming ships after living US presidents, but in both cases, the person had been out of office for years and had served in the Navy aboard the type of ship that bears their name.

• USS Jimmy Carter: An attack submarine commissioned in 2005. Carter was a nuclear technician with the Navy in the early days of nuclear submarines, and died in 2024
• USS George H. W. Bush: an aircraft carrier commissioned in 2009. Bush was flew torpedo bombers in WWII and died in 2018

But When I’m Up (I Can’t Get Down).

This guy should have been primaried. Now, without congressional recall elections, we have to live with him for another two years.

End of the day, the Senate majority / minority leader is decided by the other party members in the Senate, not the party at large.

How could the God-Emperor abandon his most loyal servant, Mike Lindell, though?

I don’t want to see this drag on for two more years, but I wouldn’t e surprised if his successor could reach an agreement quickly once assuming office. Trump will bad mouth such a deal. “We had them on the ropes, folks, then ___ came in and gave it all away. What are you gonna do?”

What if I ate my YubiKey?

There’s no mechanism for a state official to remove a Senator from office, other than the coroner signing a death certificate. You can’t hold a special election to fill an office that isn’t officially vacant. Unfortunately, there’s no recall elections for federal office holders.

I do not give one on a plane, I do not give one on a train! I do not give one here nor there, I do not give one anywhere!

I suspect Trump will ultimately suffer the same embarrassment as Carter, with Iran rapidly reaching a peace deal with his successor.

Taking a page from Trump himself, the BBC is going to bury Trump so deep in discovery he drops the lawsuit. If this case does make it to trial, there are so many interesting details that can come out publicly, including all of Trump’s businesses’ financials.

I guess write to your Representative and tell them it’s OK to torpedo the entire bill if that clause can’t be removed.

He’s using a different law to do it this time, section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. This section hasn’t been used since shortly after the law passed. It’s a different law, so it’s not covered by the previous ruling.
