Soaking wet Trump conviction speech so insane, EVERYONE cuts away
During a rambling speech at Trump Tower in New York following his criminal conviction, former President Donald Trump appeared disheveled and incoherent, relying heavily on his teleprompter. Trump attempted to justify his refusal to testify in his trial, claiming it would lead to perjury due to scrutiny over minor discrepancies. However, Trump said all along that he planned to testify, up until it was actually time to do so and then he declined the opportunity. Trump's disjointed remarks included accusations of unfair treatment and references to polls. His speech prompted networks like CNBC and CNN to cut away, citing its aimlessness. Even Fox News noted the lack of a Q&A session despite the event being billed as a press conference. Trump's performance underscored concerns about his coherence and stability, as clearly being found guilty on all 34 felony counts has affected his state of mind.
Lauren Boebert BURIED in debate-gone-wrong, STUNNING
Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert failed miserably during a pivotal debate, facing intense scrutiny from moderator Kyle Clark and fellow candidates. Clark's pointed questions exposed Boebert's inconsistencies and failures to address past controversies effectively, namely getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice performance last year for her conduct. Boebert stumbled to explain her actions and went on to make contradictory stances on earmarks. Despite attempts to deflect blame and evade direct answers, Boebert's responses only fueled criticism of her candidacy. Clark's astute observations highlighted Boebert's inability to take responsibility for her actions and underscored doubts about her suitability for reelection. Following this disastrous performance, Boebert may withdraw from future debates, reflecting the severity of her performance's impact on her campaign. The debate indicates a tough road ahead in her bid for reelection and is prompting calls for change among Colorado voters.

Trump's lawyer in shambles, UNINTELLIGIBLE interview after guilty verdicts
Todd Blanche, Donald Trump's defense attorney, sparked controversy with a series of baffling interviews on CNN and Fox News, following the criminal conviction of his client. During the interviews, Blanche failed to provide coherent explanations for why he didn’t call more witnesses to the stand, including Trump himself. Blanche defended his decision by saying that he didn’t have to call many witnesses since it’s the prosecution’s job to prove his client guilty. However, Trump lost in part because the defense failed to provide a sensible alternate version of events that could have demonstrated reasonable doubt. With Trump's comprehensive legal defeat on all 34 counts, Blanche's interviews underscored the chaotic and misguided nature of Trump's defense, reinforcing the perception of a well-deserved guilty verdict.

ANOTHER ONE: Trump lawyer loses law license
Jenna Ellis, a former lawyer for Donald Trump, faces a three-year suspension of her law license in Colorado due to her involvement in the contentious "Stop the Steal" campaign following the 2020 election. Although Ellis pleaded guilty to a felony in Georgia related to this campaign, the agreement reached in Colorado reflects mitigating factors, suggesting she was an accessory rather than the principal architect of the misconduct. Despite the temporary nature of her suspension, questions arise about the long-term implications for her legal career and financial stability. Ellis's downfall joins a growing list of casualties associated with Trump, underscoring his self-serving approach that prioritizes personal gain over the well-being of others.

I have a terrible feeling that the Supreme Court will exonerate Trump, seeing how corrupt they have proved to be. Can anyone assure me that it won't happen? Even false promises (to me) are better than the alternative.
