Or during.

Judging by previous comments, I think in the last year more tea has traveled through your nose than your throat. :p

Thank you Jeff. It is maddening to watch. Not just the soon to be “Prison Apprentice”, but what was once the GOP becomes the Trump Crime Party. Everyone co-conspiring to subvert the peaceful transfer of power -a hallmark of any form of democracy, to those supporting Trump’s big lie, to all working to impede and obstruct investigations and trials of Trump and his co-defendants. There are so many who should be expelled from Congress for their continuing attempt to subvert an already flawed and tenuous system.

Imagine a Senate without those who refused to vote to certify the elections knowing there was no evidence of foul play. Imagine a House Majority back in the hands of adults who will pass a budget, support Ukraine against Trump’s boss, and govern.

And don’t get me started on Ken Paxton. Talk about a one-man deep well of Trump-understudy corruption, it is surprising he hasn’t thrown his hat into the Trump Crime Party race for the nomination. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any slimier than Pam Bondi.

But I digress. Thanks a lot Jeff. Now frantically looking for my blood pressure pills!

Good idea and still haven't finished the Mueller report but this is "doable".

Expand full comment

It was a great exercise to highlight the most relevant parts of The Mueller Report and produce the book -with a powerful foreword written by a gifted Federal Prosecutor and friend.

Truly

Expand full comment

So true. A very few years back we had a few want to be FOX pundits in office. Now you have scores and a completely captured party that is too busy competing for the camera and leader of the Grand Old Pary of the Victimized to be bothered with such dull tasks as legislation or forming a platform.

Expand full comment

James Carville said the other day that we are now down to the best strategy being mocking Trump and his acolytes. Tiedrich figured this out at least a year ago if not more. Time to harden the message that Trump is a madman, and that following him is a mistake. Both worthy of mockery.

Expand full comment

The Lincoln Party is still doing a good job in the mocking department.

I watched that. Time to take the gloves off.

Hello? Seal Team 6? 😂😂😂. I gotta believe Jack has the real goods on Diaper Don. Great column as usual.

Expand full comment

No doubt. Hopefully he also has the goods on that still free on appeal weasel Roger Stone. Since it was reported that this treasonous no good asshole wanted Rep. Swalwell and Rep. Nadler taken out, his days of being free would soon be coming to an end.

Yes! I saw that. Roger really is trash. 🙄

That crazy freak is a complete asshole so was the other criminal tattooed on his wrinklely old ass ,put that smelly old white nationalist eater of dog shit in an Alabama county prison with some of the brothers he likes to talk his shit about ! Now that’s real justice!

Donny predicts bedlam in the country. Does he mean the kind of bedlam that took place yesterday when the So-Proud-We-Cover-Our-Faces Boys stormed the courthouse? Oh right. No one showed up. Or maybe what he was referring to was the bedlam between his ears.

"Bedlam between his ears." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I thought I was ready for all this. But that "golden years of retirement" got me.

Spit-takes forever.

Why doesn’t he spend his golden retirement years shutting the fuck up? Btw, I’m tired of fuckface and would like to move on to sphincterface.

The memes were unbelievably awesome today...Meal Team 6 was the best!!

Expand full comment

No - Biden on the phone was bester!

Expand full comment

I am torn between hoping he isn't done in by his shitty diet and lack of exercise before he can actually be convicted, and wishing for this whole debacle to be over already.

Expand full comment

I mean just for historical purposes it would be nice if he could be convicted before he dies but hey, six of one, half a dozen of the other...

Expand full comment

My son, who is usually reserved in his opinions, quietly said “we’d all be better if he’d just stroke out.” First time I’ve ever been on the stroke’s side.

Expand full comment

I say that ALL the time. Wish he’d just stroke out or have a massive heart attack

Expand full comment

I'm no longer torn about that.

Expand full comment

Same. I wanted prison first but I’d be fine without it. I just want the threat gone. If he wins we are screwed, if he loses we will go through an aftermath of upheaval again and we are still screwed.

Expand full comment

Sorta. If he stroked out there would still be the Trump victimhood and of them the he was taken out conspiracy Q believers.

Expand full comment

Correct!

Expand full comment

I’d be happy if he’s ‘done in’ and never seen or heard from again!

Expand full comment

Best thing for him and the country is he keels over on his golf course.

1) Natural causes: no excuse for the Gravy Seals to "avenge" him

2) His cult loses their focal point

3)Criminal court cases against him stop (continue against co-conspirators who will then blame EVERYTHING on him). Civil cases stop, and refine against his estate

4) He can't do anything anymore (death or vegetable)

5) We then get to watch the gladiator melee of Trumpspaen fighting each other over his estate. Those people do not like each other

Expand full comment

Let me get this straight. If the President has his political opponents executed, he can't be prosecuted for it unless he's impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate first? I know fucking 5th graders who could make a better argument in front of the bench than Sauer did, without the RFK Jr. impression. Malcolm Nance also calls "Meal Team Six" " Gravy Seals". It shouldn't take the Judges three minutes to throw that bullshit back in Trump's face.

Expand full comment

RFK impression...grating on my last nerve! Good call.

Expand full comment

No. But it was an hour well spent sweating that lawyer and humiliating Trump.

Just watched Hunter show up and call the assholes' bluff! I can not wait to hear your reaction to that!

First of all.......YOU are no “loudmouth rando on the internet!”. Thank GOD we have you to speak the truth! It probably doesn’t matter what Ketanji Brown Jackson says-because these idiots never heard of HISTORY! Keep on keeping on everyone!

You mean like Endeavor to Persevere? On it! 😂

Expand full comment

nailed it, Tess!

Expand full comment

If Presidents have absolutely no accountability then Biden can just stay on with no repercussions.

Expand full comment

If Presidents aren't accountable, why the fuck was Drumpf not executed as Joe's first act of office? Heck, executing traitors actually is part of the job, unlike all the shit Donald is trying to get excused for!

Expand full comment

Double Like.

Expand full comment

And appoint his son to be president king upon his death. No more presidential elections, the office will just be passed from parent to offspring. Why didn’t our founders consider this in the 1st place, I wonder? So much easier than having to choose every 4 years!

OK but - and now, hear me out - is it really possible that Donny Fuckface is really THAT dumb? I mean, really?? Or - maybe - they are just strategically using this and their other ridiculous claims to perpetrate their "delay delay delay" schtick? They have to know that this immunity garbage isn't going to hold any water - right? I really hope that whatever powers-that-be decide quickly about this nonsense and then move everything along at breakneck speed - since that's the exact one thing he doesn't want to happen.

Expand full comment

He IS that dumb. (Fran Liebowitz: "You don't know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump. You just don't.") His only hope, he thinks, is to throw enough sand into the gears of justice to defer everything until after the election. He'll lose that, too, but can use it as an excuse to try Insurrection II: Electoral Boogaloo. That, too, will fail. What's really weird is, the entire Republican Party has signed on for that. Or maybe it's not weird at all. Maybe it's just contemptible.

Expand full comment

Yeah, I know he's stupid and yet he has managed to get a mob of 60 million other idiots to follow him. Although I understand the psychology of this and how it could have happened, I'm still left scratching my head. It's likely that I'll go to my grave not understanding how all of this could have happened - including the GOP'ers you're talking about too. So incredibly stupid, all the way around.

Expand full comment

Agree. The 30 million orc army MAGA base, okay. But 30 million (or more) others? After 4 years of his inept/criminal administration, a failure to deliver literally anything he promised, and 30,000 lies? It's baffling. Are there THAT many Evangelical morons? I thought I had seen the absolute nadir of the American electorate when George W won a second term. How wrong I was.

Expand full comment

I happened to do the math this morning... 148 million voters / 35 percent are Trumpers = 52 million votes that Trump could be assured of. That would be 20 million less votes than he got in 2020. I think this math might work.

Expand full comment

Okay, but don't forget the ten or eleven extra votes the Republicans will get when they vote twice.

Expand full comment

And Orc Army is a description that I’ll use every chance I get.

I think too many people really don’t realize it’s not just the Evangelicals. My family are mostly Lutheran (I’m atheist) & even though “some” of them recognized that he was not a decent human being, he HAD THEM when he pledged to appoint judges to scotus who would overturn Roe!!!! It’s that damned important to way too many Christians, that they just didn’t care about anything else. I’m now at the point where I’m about to just sever ties with a sister, nieces & nephews, etc bc I know that they will still vote for that pile of crap.....for the 3rd time!!

My nephew says the Dems hate white men. 🤦‍♀️

Expand full comment

I regret to inform you that your nephew is a idiot. As for Roe and abortion, no one who is actually pro-life (or a real Christian) should be able to stomach Trump. Such people are fetus fetishists. I bet most of them believe in angels.

Expand full comment

If he doesn't win in 2024 (GOD FORBID), but another repugnicant does, he could still be pardoned. That makes me uneasy.

Expand full comment

You're not wrong, but think about it: Do you think the MAGA hordes would turn out for anyone else? Even if Trump told them to? And there's no other Repub with his charisma. The very idea of Ted Cruz or Josh Hawley even trying is to laff.

Expand full comment

Yes, I think it wouldn't happen. Nevertheless... as the saying goes.

Expand full comment

Well someone is still voting republican...and will continue to or there would not be the small majority in Congress. Trump didn't bring all of them on the 4 year card.

Expand full comment

Yes, due to gerrymandering, voter suppression, and widespread stupidity.

Expand full comment

Hateful bunch, much!

Expand full comment

Don’t forget that he can’t be pardoned for state convictions by the president, so Georgia and New York would still stick. We get more states to prosecute him for trying to overthrow the election!

Expand full comment

Oh, YEAH!!! I forget that. (Did you see how the Mob is going after Fani Willis b/o one of the men who works with her?)

Expand full comment

Yes, & that is despicable. Even if they are having an affair, wth cares? I don’t

There are plenty of husband/wife couples who are prosecutors & they sleep together.

It’s irrelevant

I LOVE Fran Liebowitz!

Expand full comment

You are correct when you say he is just trying to throw sand in the gears to delay this as long as he can.He will never abide by the results of the upcoming election unless he wins and will call the whole thing fraudulent and the good ole Witch Hunt.We will be going down another horrible rabbit hole again.The whole thing is maddening.Ground Hog Day redux.

It's all part of the delay strategy.

Yes, I think I wrote "deny deny deny" but what I meant was "delay delay delay." Thanks for your reply so I could correct that!

I just edited my post to say "delay" instead of "deny".

Grudges, grievances and score-settling are the staples of the loser's toolbox. Somewhere on US 58 outside of Barstow is the Republican Party who are stranded in their 1952 Greyhound bus. They open the toolbox and all that is there are the above.

The driver Donald Trump is running around yelling expletives and thinking about another Big Mac if they ever get the bus going. There is nobody mature or intelligent enough among them to help. As the sun goes down on the GOP, they piss on the landscape and blame each other for their troubles.
