Indeed none of the Trump media are trying that. On Fox News they only have a few questions, like, can the Secret Service keep Trump out of prison?
There seems to be a growing belief that Trump will be, in fact, jailed with limited possibility for bail in Georgia.
Trump would long for a (cold) big mac after a couple days of jail food.
Also this RICO trial is likely to be televised, unlike other states GA inversely requires a compelling reason to not televise a trial of high public interest, in most other jurisdictions a compelling reason to televize must be made.
edit: spellcheck approved both, don't hate me.
I'd forgotten about Matthew "Toilets for the well endowed gentleman" Whitaker.
Rob Reich debunks 5 common MAGA talking points about the indictments:
And the ones not talking about any of that, well, they are simply discussing how to keep him out of a jail cell at this point or desperately trying to change the subject to Vivek Ramaswamy rapping about Taiwan to be Trump's vice president or something.
AG for a whole 3 months IIRC?
2 impeachments
4 indictments
91 charges
But sure, it is all "a witch hunt"
There are more charges and indictments coming I think..
I suspect Smith will charge him under mail/wire fraud for his fund raising activities and a few other States might follow Georgia lead (Michigan perhaps) and level charges as well.
Smith's witnesses are all Republicans as well.
I notice the MAGA fanboys are only calling it a witch hunt on Trump no mention of a witch hunt on his minions and no calls for pardons for them.
Reads and sounds like letting the minions take the fall for the head of the crime family
Trump is off and running on "Truth" Social
A Large , Complex , Detailed and irrefutable report.
Sure Donnie , sure.
Report Title: "2,001 Mules"
Perfect. Really looking forward to this. I reckon Trump won't show at all and instead it'll be presented by Mike Pillow and the guy that made the 2000 Mules film.
Not just a large, complex, detailed and irrefutable report... But a conclusive report!!!
Wrap it up ladies and gentlemen, best let this guy go.
Same report that failed in every single case that they took in the courts?
Live footage of Rudy pulling said report out of his ass....
Sounds like Iron Mike Lindell has concluded his investigation and is about to put this all to bed like a champ.
On a more frivolous point: I wonder are all those Striking writers, such as those who work on Seth Meyers' late-night show, are just raging that they have all this new material to work with and are unable to write it? I always liked Meyers' little political segments as Meyers himself has an affable, unpretentious & charismatic delivery, while the material was never that forced. I miss his A Closer Look segments...
I’m thinking the exact same. I’d say their WhatsApp group is a goldmine of jokes right now.
John Oliver must be hurting cause those truth social posts...
“I’m gonna jingle so many fcuking keys it will make your redneck head spin”
Expect lots of mentions of dead people , burned ballots , suitcases , ballot switching and all the other "greatest hits" from the 70+ courts cases they lost so far.
"Irrefutable" except where they have all been utterly refuted in courts over and over again.
What does the future hold for Donald Trump?
Jail.

Two thoughts,
The man is box office, it has to be said. Every major news network will be covering that.
It won't matter how spurious anything he presents at the press conference is. It will be an open and shut case for MAGA. Would he and his defence counsel present it in a court of law, I wonder, or is this a textbook case of Trump attempting to try the case in the media?
They'll cover it to a point, but given the Fox/Dominion settlement, I'm not even sure a lot of them will be willing to just tack on a disclaimer at the end. They may either cut away if he starts down that road or repeatedly fact-check him on it in real time.
If he starts mentioning actual company or persons names, media networks may get spooked and pull live coverage.
"The man is box office"
I would describe it as more "car crash tv"
"is this a textbook case of Trump attempting to try the case in the media"
Of course it is.
"If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If both are against you, pound the table"
Sure he's had dinner with media execs already I'm sure they've had a chat on what Trump can and cannot say to be cut away from live broadcast
Fox News execs are no real position to tell Trump what to do.. He can put a mighty dent in their viewership with one declaration If they broached the subject, they would have to broach it quite meekly.
I'm genuinely interested and eager to see what will be brought up. I mean everyone with an ounce of critical thought knows for a fact that all of the previous claims were lies, fake or fraud (Intentional, calculated, prepared lies or manufactured fake/fraud). Every single person. EVERY ONE. Without a single exception.
So I'm actually interested to see what they report. I mean, we will know with the very first supplied evidence. And notice, I'm not using quotes at the moment. If it's the same lies as previously supplied then it is not evidence but manufactured fraud. But maybe they do have something interesting.
I will listen to any NEW evidence with interest but will immediately ignore any and all of their previously supplied fraudulent documentation as it has conclusively been proven to be fake, incorrect or outright lies by every court they were presented to.
I WANT to hear and evaluate new evidence to see if I believe its credible or relevant. Just as I WANT to hear new evidence about Joe Biden corruption. They have had that laptop for years now. PLEASE show us this evidence proving Joe Biden is corrupt and was bribed (Or whatever is being claimed).
Have you watched Succession?? The networks still have a massive pull, particularly with fox
Maybe he has irrefutable evidence?
id day he more likely to ramble on with a pile of nonsense and hope that he creates enough talking points for his followers to continue with their implausible denials.
Interesting timing difference between the reporting of voting of grand jury and the deleted court docket that was posted before there was a result and charges

The Reuters story and headline have since been changed not mentioning the core component of the original story.
I guess if it was only one person behind this it isn't a....conspiracy!
Funny that
