Trump further predicted that he will not be convicted on the federal charges stemming from the documents case. He also stressed that he would not accept a plea deal unless he was presented one "where they pay me some damages."

Is this an attempt to set up an insanity defense?

I'm gonna give him credit for three things of value he's contributed to society.

A. He brought the Fascist out of hiding. Better to know your enemy is at your doorstep than lying in wait.

B. He's made the dictionary much smaller by giving a single definition for so, so many words - narcassist, conman, grifter, selfish, demagogue, fool, sexist, racist, idiot, seditionist, violator, cheater... The list just keeps going. They should all just say "see Trumpism"

C. He's successfully rallied young Americans to be more engaged in voting than any previous generation, ensuring that if we can just get past this hurdle, the future can be bright.
