For you it's "So what he announced early." For this writer, Rich Lowery, it's "Trump made a huge mistake by announcing early."

Trump Campaign? What Campaign? Since Trump became an official candidate for president, "There’s been no media blitz. There’s been no tour of the country. There’s been no rollout of policy or any unifying theme. It’s been Trump sitting in Mar-a-Lago, just like before, lurching from one idiotic...

Trump In Trouble as His Base Erodes Republican support for another Trump bid has significantly eroded. Biden now leads Trump in a head-to-head matchup, 47%-40%. Two-thirds of GOP and GOP-leaning voters want DeSantis to run. (Source)

Because so many more conservatives avoided the vaccine than liberals, more conservatives were killed by COVID-19. Thus they were not around to vote in Nov. 2022. I don't know the numbers but I do winder if the anti-vax campaigns were a contributing factor to Republicans losing elections where...

Humiliated Judge Not Very Talkative as She Eats Crow

Case Dismissed, Trump-Appointed Judge's Ruling Eviscerated by Other Trump-Appointed Judges https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/12/politics/judge-dismisses-special-master-trump/index.html

You are correct and I stand corrected.

Let's be sure to properly understand the First Amendment itself before calling something a First Amendment violation. I'm not a lawyer or constitutional scholar and I know of none who participate here on EO. So, being careful to properly understand the First Amendment, I did a little Googling...

Yet Another Case Where Trump Does Not Pay His Bills https://apnews.com/article/politics-donald-trump-business-chuck-grassley-sioux-city-677bdac0b1f5a2c4263c0d801d26e5bb

Sad But True Tweet from David Whelan, Paul Whelan's brother: "Former President Trump appears to have mentioned my brother #PaulWhelan's wrongful detention more in the last 24 hours than he did in the 2 years of his presidency in which Paul was held hostage by #Russia (zero). I don't suggest...

No Contempt Ruling Today Reports a day or two ago were that DOJ was asking a judge to hold the Trump office in contempt. Today reports are that the judge made no such ruling. As I said above, details are sketchy because these are closed-door hearings. Additionally, these reports are not well...

The Jan 6 Committee never had the authority to charge Trump with a crime of any kind at any time. Having now completed their work and soon to issue their evidence and report for the history books, they are turning everything over to the Department of Justice, which does have the authority to...

Above, I asked why Trump acted out of character and did not appeal a court decision that went against him. Soon after, news breaks that DOJ is seeking a contempt finding against the Trump office. It's starting to make sense now. It is yet another sign of his decline that Trump is running our of...

No one said anything about having information that will bring Trump down. If the Judge finds Trump and/or his office in contempt, the likely outcome is a daily fine until compliance with court orders is obtained. It's a good thing Trump has the fundraising mechanism and willing contributors he...

Trump Still Messing Around. DOJ Isn't. After a judge asked the Trump team to search again for classified documents illegally in Trump's possession, two were found and turned over to the FBI. Now there are reports that DOJ will be in court tomorrow asking a judge to find the Trump office in...

This is Different Trump almost always appeals court decisions that go against him. I fully expected him to appeal this one too. I don't know why he is not appealing. Any ideas? https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/08/politics/trump-special-master-supreme-court/index.html

Trump done. DeSantis won. "Unlike Trump, DeSantis has been effective and competent at implementing a conservative agenda. And unlike Trump, DeSantis actually won re-election (by over 19 points)." (Source)

With his legal troubles and fading popularity, Trump is less of a danger to the country than he was before. Trumpism, however, persists. But even that is fading as Republicans see how it hurt their performance in the midterm elections. The attempted coup failed and those who supported it are...

How Long Will the Republican Party Cling to Donald Trump? "His family business was convicted Tuesday of criminal tax fraud. On the same day, his hand-picked candidate lost a winnable Senate race in a red state. The House January 6 committee has decided to make criminal referrals to the Justice...

Trump is Getting Jumpy https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/07/politics/trump-lawyers-properties-search/index.html This is actually a dumb thing to do. It is well documented that Trump's previous claims that all documents were turned over are false. This "search" only reinforces the public memory of...
