Donald, Going Nuclear

By Hubie and Bertie

It's not our practice to amplify messages from Benedict Donald, but how weird is this? On Easter Sunday, no less.

There were a couple of other postings today, too, mostly about how innocent he is in the stolen documents case, and how awful Joe Biden is, et cetera. All caps, naturally. So the impression one gets is that Trump knows that something is going down.

Last week was simply terrible for him, and not just because he had to surrender himself to be arraigned in Manhattan. In fact, that day was potentially the least of his worries. It's hard to know what's happening in grand juries, because they're secret, but a lot of witness testimony has been cleared the last few days for Jack Smith, and Mike Pence said he wouldn't resist testifying any more himself. Chatter is happening around Georgia, too. Could Fani Willis indict 20 or more Trumpsters? Hints have been dropped.

In the face of all this, Benedict Donald is trying to summon his MAGA troops to do... something. Exactly what is unclear. But so far, nobody's taking to the streets. Trump is stuck at his roped-off table, eating Easter brunch at Mar-a-Lago with Moose & Squirrel, waiting helplessly for the anvils to fall on his head. Meanwhile, President Biden is getting ready for a hero's welcome in Ireland. The phrase "we'd rather be us than them" has never been so true. We cats PURR.
