    Also, also, the law isn’t really a thing anymore under Trump based on his whims.

    Perhaps, but those are post indictment lawyers. Trump is getting prospective advice. By the time anything happens he will be long gone. What can I get away with? Can the DOJ stop me? Hence the executive orders and the IEEPA basis for his actions. Already rejected by one federal court and an appeal filed the next day. It may be a year before that gets decided. Make no mistake, he is well counseled on what he can do do without judicial scrutiny while still in office. He knows what he is doing. It is an NYC slumlord applying those tactics to Washington.

    Trump doesn't have good personal lawyers, but in his current role as President he gets to use the people's own tax dollars to sue ad nauseum. Trump was losing every lawsuit up until the federal government became his personal lawyer. It's all bullshit. It just shows that no one can stand up to endless litigation with no financial limitations. MAGA should hate this abuse of the government treading all over people, but they don't because it's not them, yet.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    It's ridiculous.  He's gotten away with screwing people out of money as a businessman because he forces them to sue him to be paid.  He thinks that is being smart.  This is especially scary because as President he can do whatever he wants and force people to sue him/government as he has no risk of loss in the matter.  He can do whatever he wants.

    Trump has better lawyers than any network or government agency. Truth. And why he gets away with what he does. All of his trade and immigration policies are well counseled as to the powers of the executive office. More brazen in this term. Shoot first ask questions later. That is what is happening. 

    Or….he owns six votes on scotus. Nice freedom we got here.

    Every single maga outrage is created in a writers room at murdoch inc. Just like all of the bs, conspiracy theories, dogwhistles, and lies that are perpetuated by the grifter-n-chief then believed and parroted by the sycophantic cultists. 
    All for clicks, dollars, and views.

    The "Pelosi refused to activate the National Guard" bullshit is resurfacing now since trump forgot that he previously said he couldn't activate the NG on Jan 6th...

    Did he get Johnson's written permission for this one? So fucking stupid it hurts

    I was certain this was a photo of Stephen Colbert until I read the text!
    Anyway, MSNBC cannot hide from their dishonest past - not even with a new name.
    Good luck Stephen - I mean Rachel - I mean Stephen...
