Not seeing a lot of good news for Benedict Donald today.
The economy grew by 3.1 percent last year, and — is it possible? — the media might finally be covering it accurately. It's about time they focused on facts and figures instead of feelings.
Turns out that Joe Biden won a larger share of the Democratic primary vote in New Hampshire than Trump did of the GOP's, despite not being on the ballot. Somewhat embarrassing, no?
Nikki Haley is driving him nuts, and Liz Cheney is openly encouraging her to stay in the Presidential race. Haley is disgusting, no doubt about it — but we're rooting for her to stick around. Meanwhile, Trump's former minion Peter Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison this morning, and when he tried to speak to the press, he was drowned out by a protester with a whistle and a cowbell. Perfect!
On Capitol Hill, the cat's out of the bag on the border security deal — Republicans are caving to Donald because they don't want to give Biden a "win" going into the November election. Mitt Romney and Thom Tillis have already excoriated them for it — will more Senators join them? Whether or not they do, long story short, Trump and the GOP own the border problem now.
Finally, Trump had a weird and, in the end, humiliating experience in court today. The judge in the E. Jean Carroll defamation damages trial gave an excellent demonstration of how to control the malignant narcissist who used to live in the White House. He even corrected hapless attorney Alina Habba when she called "President Donald Trump" to the stand. But most delicious was his refusal to allow any breaching of legal guardrails, which left Trump performing for a little more than three minutes — giving rise, no pun intended, to a zillion jokes on Twitter, many of them Stormy-Daniels-related.
Trump was clearly angry when he left the courtroom. "This is not America," he drama-queened. Au contraire, Benedict Donald. This is America. Yes, it is. We cats PURR.
