A serious question has to be how Trump can still be so pig ignorant, not just spelling and grammar, but history, elementary school science, his understanding of the world, and practically everything else, when he has such an elite educational background. Okay, his father's money paid for his grades and others did his assignments, but surely something would have rubbed off from those top class very expensive schools, even if he only spent one or two days in the classrooms? How can he still know so little?

It was probably a choice he made.

 

If you know stuff, you may know when you are wrong. If you are ignorant, you can always blame other people.

Catch 22:

 

Option 1: Trump is no longer President and admits to the Big Lie.

Option 2: Trump is still President, but the Chinese sent the 'Blimp' anyway.

I have no inclination to sign up to Truth (lol) Social for my entire life to see what the post was, but I wonder what it was that Trump said? Something specific or cryptic?

The NY Times - Pence Gets Subpoena From Special Counsel in Jan. 6 Investigation

 

breaking

 


Former Vice President Mike Pence has been subpoenaed by the special counsel investigating former President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to cling to his office after he lost his bid for re-election ...

 

The move by the Justice Department sets up a likely clash over executive privilege, which Mr. Trump has previously used to try to slow, delay and block testimony from former administration officials in various investigations into his conduct. ...

 

The move is among the most aggressive yet by Mr. Smith in his wide-ranging investigation into Mr. Trump’s role in seeking to overturn the outcome of the 2020 election and a parallel inquiry into Mr. Trump’s handling of classified documents.

 



 

The Washington Post :   "It is unclear whether Pence will comply with the subpoena."

That's a pretty long bow for Trump to draw. De Santis is only two years younger than me, and - assuming that pic is him - looks like he's in his 20s there, placing it sometime in the late 90s; having said that, it's not like he's 75 or something chasing an 18 year old.

 

Of course I can't see the girl's faces to see what age they might be, but it looks to me like that image was from a very long time before he became a politician. Besides, for all we know those girls were all 17-18-19 at the time anyway.

Five women who competed in the 1997 Miss Teen USA beauty pageant said Donald Trump walked into the dressing room while contestants — some as young as 15 — were changing.

“I remember putting on my dress really quick because I was like, ‘Oh my god, there’s a man in here,’” said Mariah Billado, the former Miss Vermont Teen USA.

Trump, she recalled, said something like, “Don’t worry, ladies, I’ve seen it all before.”

Four other women reported Trump entering the dressing room while girls were changing. Three of them said the girls rushed to cover their bodies, with one calling it “shocking” and “creepy.”

It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, "grooming" is one of the US far right's many magic trigger words. "Socialism" is another, and there's many more. All you need to do is say that and their brains switch off and they'll go with anything you tell them.

Interesting, I didn't know he had been a teacher. According to Wikipedia:

 

After Yale [he graduated in 2001], he taught history and coached for a year at Darlington School. He subsequently attended Harvard Law School, graduating in 2005 with a Juris Doctor cum laude.

 

So that image - if it is indeed him - I guess would be from 2002/2003, when he would have been 24 or 25.
