Meanwhile, in Trumpland, we have another bit from the Liar in Chief to try to downplay his stupid remark to the reporter.

And the NYT found inappropriate dealings and likely fraud in Trump's handling of his father's estate.

It truly is amazing what over 100,000 pages of documentation can tell a person!

Is his sister still a judge? How can there not be disbarment hearings wheels turning right now?

Oy.

There's a lot of tax evasion and outright gangstery fraud there.   Stat o' Lims is passed on some of it,  but there are still possible civil penalties.   The sheer scale of the cheating is mindbending and it does decisively put to rest the whole self-made man bullshit that 45 ran on.  For those not fully zombified yet,  this might whittle away their figurehead a little more.   I know people locally who voted Trump on the strength of his shrewd self-made biznessman image,  who may well consider dumping him.

Nah. He’s giving them what they want, tax cuts and judges... money and the judicial power to codify it their right to control all of it.

Been telling y’all since forever the guy was a phone billionaire and the only thing he has ever accomplished on his own in his life was when he was the fastest sperm.

Economic growth has been revised upward to over 3%: unemployment rate is at 3.9 and headed down t o 3, inflation is well under control, wages are up,
Consumer confidence is through the roof, and Americans are buying steak again.
After 8 years of meandering through the haze of the disaster known as ObamaNomics the GOP has given us all something to be proud of

Republican efforts when real action was needed to kick start the world economy...

now they’re bragging about inheriting a good economy. Typical GOP just like Trump. Start on third and swear they hit a triple.

Redundant and repetitive and ignoring what I posted about wages because it's inconvenient.

I used to think Seinfeld, but have to say that Lawrence O'Donnell is the absolute funniest man on television.

They should go after the sister.
 The ex Judge.

They could get her to flip. That punk brother of hers! He made them sell Daddy's legacy. He HELPED Daddy do all those things that daddy did. He was a bad influence on Daddy.

She'd flip on the dime she just dropped on her sleazy little brother. The one who let her older brother die in the mud at 42. (Didn't even have the courtesy to take him fishing in Tahoe!)

Robert is holding her back, he and the other one will need protection too. No jail for Donald! Protection from the Ruskies, absolute.

One other thing. Donald. The Art of The Deal.

(His sister should make the deal) Have you ever heard of a salesman treating the prospect like a piece of shit? Ever? In any convoluted deal plot? Sales Scam? They don't even write fiction like that because it is just too stupid an idea and even French Waiters in French Restaurants know it! Donald Trump kisses everybody's ass. Kissing ass is what he does. He's a salesman. He is constantly selling. Except that he is not selling ANYTHING to the Democrats.

He's not even trying to. You can tell because he hasn't kissed their ass. Not even a little. (Except for that one time when he got mixed up and thought he was a Democrat again for a whole afternoon.)

One more one more thing:

The reporter that Trumps thought was Melania for a second. "I know you're not thinking. You never do." The perfect comeback would be for her to have said "That sounds like a personal problem, Mr. President, please, leave me out."

Solid prez mocking a woman he said was credible about sexual assault.

Deplorables.

Trump is a vile human being. The very worst this country has to offer, in any walk of life.

And his supporters are the same.
