One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others

And all those fast food joints in California going out of business because of the $20 minimum wage?

Jeebus, he looks terrible, all tired and stressed out. Katy Tur was talking about this speech or whatever you want to call it on MSNBC. She covered the Trump campaign for NBC and MSNBC in 2016, so has a lot of familiarity being around Trump. She said that she had never seen him like this and that he, in her words, looked "diminished and deflated".

https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1796583710990401627 Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler: "America just witnessed a confused, desperate, and defeated Donald Trump ramble about his own personal grievances and lie about the American justice system, leaving anyone watching with one obvious conclusion: This man cannot be president of the United States. Unhinged by his 2020 election loss and spiraling from his criminal convictions, Trump is consumed by his own thirst for revenge and retribution. He thinks this election is about him. But it's not. It's about the American people: lowering their costs, protecting their freedoms, defending their democracy."

That doesn't sound quite right to me, do you have a link for that?

He didn't say that he didn't testify based on the advice of council.

https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1796571122470977699 It seems Trump was concerned about perjuring himself. In his rambling press conference, he says he would have loved to testify at trial but didn't because "they'll get you on something you said slightly wrong and then they'll sue you for perjury."

https://x.com/Vampire337/status/1796570448626384947 (video clip at link) He spits 'Biden' like it's distasteful but I think this may be the first time I've heard Trump admit Biden is POTUS. The man had to become a felon before he conceded he lost the election. "But he's nevertheless the President, so we have to use his name." #TrumpPressConference

https://x.com/MalawiAce/status/1796568074512151019 #Factcheck: Donald Trump in his press conference says "..the Congo has just released a lot of prisoners from their prisons, a lot of people and brought them here.." (meaning the US)??!! He made the allegations before here, & It's NOT TRUE. 100% FALSE:

https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1796568339046936774 Trump's remarks at Trump Tower are done. It was over 30 minutes of unhinged rambling. He is clearly rattled by the conviction, despite his allies claiming this is a good thing for his re-election campaign.

https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1796566793945063885 Everything Trump is saying right now can be taken into consideration at sentencing. Judges typically weigh whether the defendant has shown remorse. Judge Merchan, who Trump just called "a devil," certainly isn't seeing any remorse from this defendant.

That what Ahmed Baba said. I think he probably knows that judge is not covered, he was just reminding his readers that Trump is still under a gag order (in the second sentence of the tweet).

No, but the judge is going to be the one sentencing him, so it not wise to keep poking the tiger, IMO.

https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1796564624415817849 MSNBC and CNN have both cut away from Trump’s remarks, and immediately dove into fact-checks of his lies

https://x.com/KatiePhang/status/1796564375941284285 Let’s be crystal clear: Trump could have testified. No one stopped him from doing so. No one forced him to sit there and not take the stand in his own defense. Trump, himself, decided not to testify.

I missed the beginning. But what I've heard, he is rambling, ranting and almost incoherent.

https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1796561491694620718 Trump just called Judge Merchan, who will decide his sentence, “a devil.” Trump is still under a gag order.

https://x.com/AhmedBaba_/status/1796560610261626964 MSNBC and CNN are currently streaming Trump's Trump Tower remarks live. People who might usually never see Trump's rallies are being reminded how unhinged he is.

It appears that the 34 guilty verdicts has sent jonmx completely over the edge. Maybe we can get weepaws to pray for him.

The religion of queerdom?

The Trump Inauguration Day Riots? Yeah, I think most people are not familiar with that happening either. Wiki must in on the conspiracy to suppress information about it as they don't even have a page devoted to it.

No. But I think his chances have improved slightly.

That was sweet and what was even better was beating out jon_mx, who was in second place.

I won yesterday with 24 reputation points.

For those who haven't paid attention to this trial. I can't see how this helps Trump in any way.
