The notion that this is somehow making Trump stronger is not based in reality.

I'm still convinced Trump wants to spend a night in jail. The fundraising email is already written.

Cool. Lets let him spend a couple days there.  One for every violation of the gag order. 

please, please, please.

That's awesome.  It makes me as hopeful as seeing productive Javier Baez at bats. 

Some people are stating that there are no Trump supporters outside the court.  Is that true? 

Hang this around his neck.  

This is fun.  The right way to treat the Trump circus is as a circus.   A bunch of insubstantial jerks and a few dedicated leninists (Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon) who plan true evil. They all deserve mockery.

Tomorrow morning is the gag order hearing. And just tonight Trump again made more comments about the jury. This would never be allowable for any other citizen of this country. This man needs to be held in contempt of court, put in handcuffs, and put into jail tomorrow night.

this special treatment has got to come to an end. He is in contempt of court, the hell with these stupid monetary fines,  …. His ass needs to be in a jail cell.  

fingers are crossed

Mark Meadows sang?

Eddie Bonine gets no love?

This is clearly AI...and only part of a wave of AI junk out there

But still

Attorneys and judge are still in the courtroom

Defense and prosecutors are still in the courtroom following Judge Mechan dismissing the jury for the day.

Prosecutor Jushua Steinglass was asked to approach the bench over scheduling.

Judge just dismissed the jury:  seems really early.

Pecker doesn't look at Trump as he enters the courtroom

David Pecker entered the courtroom from a side door. He walked behind Donald Trump's chair but didn't look at him as he walked slowly to the witness box.

Trump attorney Todd Blanche whispered to Trump after Pecker was called.

Might not be good for Trump if he is actually wary of looking directly at Trump.  Could mean anything though. 

Jeez,

Trump attorney: "There’s nothing wrong with trying to influence an election. It's called democracy"

"I have a spoiler alert: There’s nothing wrong with trying to influence an election. It’s called democracy," Donald Trump attorney Todd Blanche said of accusations the payments were trying to illicitly influence the 2016 election.

FatLenin doesn't like Mike J

I bet he would love to take the stand but

This could be really interesting. 

This is encouraging. 

Opening statements will be fun today.  

Funny story...I forgot i started this thread back when.  That's how significant Iran is as an opponent that the US participated in a multi-nation coalition to stop its big attack on Israel and I shrugged.

Paywalled but starts very well. 

"Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" has the worst screen performance of Winston Churchill I think i could have imagined.   It also has the most bizonkers portrayal of Churchill's chiefs of staff (people presumably appointed by him) all being appeasers who were ready to give up to Hitler in Jan 1942. 

That said, its a fun movie if you treat it like a "Sgt Rock" or "Sgt Fury and his Howling Commandos" comic book. 

And the lady who is in it is the same lady (Eliza Gonzalez) as was Monica/"darling" in Baby Driver so...woof.

Basically, leave your history degree at the door and enjoy them killing Nazis.
