    This is just establishing the narrative. They’ll deny the motion because there’s no legal basis for it, and he’ll go on social media and blither on about how he’s the victim of an illegal witch hunt and suchlike. He knows it won’t succeed, but he doesn’t need it to succeed. He just needs to give his terrorists something to latch onto, some narrative they can take back to their echo chamber and use to morally justify more terrorism.

      Funny how someone can whine about being a victim when he started out with millions of dollars and never faced real consequences for his plethora of crimes. This guy commits more crimes before breakfast than most people commit in their lifetime. Also if the White House schedule was accurate he does like nothing till late morning, so gives him more time to commit a bit of light treason to get the day started. Won’t someone think of the old rich racist white once in awhile? Not knocking on white or old dudes just the racist ones with too much privilege,
