ps Gus: way north of a 95% chance of winning. I think he’s got a lot of evidence. But Trump was too proud to negotiate a plea deal. I don’t even know if ‘proud’ is the correct word to use. I guess the closest thing I can say is that his narcissist personality could never ever let him admit that he was guilty. So now he’s facing Jack Smith and Company, including Alex wedding. And Trump knows Alex Whiting’s capacity. So far all Trump has been to bleat incessantly. We’re not even in court. But once court happens in Jack, Smith and Alex Whiting are going to run rings around Trump and his team. I may be wrong, but I think the big trial is Jack Smith, and Company and the insurrection, and taking away our votes. They’re all important. But we don’t have Aileen Cannon on that trial: it’s Judge. Chutkan.

Again, Re Jim Jordan: he’s going to drag us into a government shut down on November 17. That will cause a national uproar, he will be recalled by the Republicans, and will be off to the races with someone new. Or the gang of eight ultra right freedom caucus members will hold the Republican Party hostage, even to the point where the Democrats will have the majority… If George Santos is booted. So to end on a positive note, Trump did not get the logic gene. Nothing he’s ever done has been with logic. It’s been done with greed, and using whatever bullying tactics he has learned. But if you look at the logic of it, you will see that the Republican House members want to get reelected. They’re going to stick their fingers up in the air and see where the wind is blowing, and people are just really sick and tired of Trump’s antics and his vile nature. A lot of these people love the United States of America, and they will demand their representative make the right decision which means keeping their Social Security checks coming. Jordan will be booted the week of November 20, because unfortunately, he will drag straightahead into a shut down. As horrible as that is, and will be, it will drag the Republicans kicking and screaming to the negotiating table. Sorry if this seems to be opposed to your comment because I surely didn’t mean it to be. I just think this event with Jim Jordan is part of what we have to go through to get to a good outcome and I don’t have any any doubt at all that we will get there and we will be rid of Trump..
