When he was so busy banging?

It boggles the mind. As bad as Watergate was, Trump’s actions far outweigh anything Nixon did. Nixon should have been impeached and removed. Resignation was the honorable thing for him to do.

So why does Trump get away with it?

I think I have idea. The tapes.

On February 16, 1971, Nixon had a sophisticated taping system installed in the Oval Office and Cabinet Room. Three months later, Nixon’s private office in the Old Executive Office Building received microphones. In 1972, Camp David was set up for recording. Phone lines in the Oval, Lincoln Sitting Room and Old Executive Office Building were tapped.

The system was turned off on July 18, 1973, two days after the recordings became public knowledge. Nixon taped 3,700 hours of conversations.

It’s more than just seeing it in writing. You could actually hear what Nixon was scheming.

Maybe it wouldn’t matter if Trump had been recording his conversations, very strongly. Maybe Republicans wouldn’t have heard any of those tapes. Maybe not.

But when it’s asked, what’s different, I think the recordings are a big reason.

Kevin Hasset loves the art of investing in comic books. He also loves telling whoppers about how great Trump's America is. But why does he have that stupid grin on his face each time? Does he think this convinces anyone? Even MAGA has to hate this guy.

I’m a big fan at humiliating our enemies by laughing at them and making them the source of ridicule. Here is my attempt.

Hat Tip Aaron Rupar. Gym sounded like he was having a medical event.

I was not aware until recently that Jon Ossoff was the managing director and chief executive officer of Insight: The World Investigates (TWI), a London-based investigative television production company that works with reporters to create documentaries about corruption in foreign countries.

His wheelhouse is corruption by government officials.

It feels like he spend his time before the senate building the skills for the moment.

I mean, he’s no Josh Shapiro, the perfect politician, but who is? 😆😆😆

Wicket couldn’t shoo this guy away?

Politics has me burnt out. To the point I’m skipping episodes. But Michael Steele today brought some much needed relief. We need more of this. Because I can’t take it.

TL;DR in under 3 minutes. Enjoy! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The cassette ends, then plays side two, repeating what it said on side one. I assume Trump and his pals buy the dip?

And why is Usha making that face? Hat Tip Republicans Against Trump.

The one phrase Trump uses that is nails on a chalkboard to me is “highly respected.” So, what does that mean? I consider John McCain, “highly respected.” Alan Greenspan was “highly respected.” These were people who were either very brave or very smart. I bet he uses this flowery language to sound smart. Like spay painting gold everywhere makes things look classy to Trump, I bet using far too many adjectives makes him look smart.

It’s not the biggest complaint. He does far worse things, but this is the one that drives me nuts.

The tell is “The pressure campaign” line. The moment his radio audience vanishes in the next book, he will say he was being nuanced, issue by issue but clearly Jon Ossoff is a Communist so he has to support Trump.

GOOD LUCK, GEORGIA!

If only someone could have told him ahead of time it would be like this! How could he have known?

Regardless of all the falling asleep, well, everywhere over the last 2 years, it’s actually more jarring than normal to see how bad Trump looks on this France visit. It’s as though he willed everything he had just to get to that 80th birthday and now has nothing left. As a history buff, it has the feel of Warren Harding’s “Voyage of Understanding” vibe. A president far more frail than the public knew, pushing far past the medical symptoms exhibited, resulting in his sudden demise. Even last week he looked better than the last two days.

Sam, skin cancer is real.
