Under normal circumstances I'd never in a million years quote a tweet by an actor, even one as smart as Edward Norton, but this thread right here is a pretty interesting take on the current situation (and I've been known to play a hand or two of Texas Hold 'Em). Worth the one minute it takes to read.


On the likely assumption that Edward Norton is correct, it would seem as though the complicit nature of his enablers indicates they are also in deep shit.

All along my perspective has been that the biggest risk to Trump is the SDNY case on tax/bank fraud where I feel confident he misrepresented his financial position to either the IRS, Deutsche Bank or more likely both. I'd still suggest his enablers are in it more for their post-Trump careers as serial grifters but as usual where there is one cockroach there are more and things are always worse than they see, underneath the surface. I think what we'll uncover in Trump's staff is as much incompetence as there is illegality. Like all mobsters though, as Norton refers to him, prosecutors want to be able to catch him at one crime -- the most provable one -- as opposed to all the terrible ones committed.
 
Simon Marks on the Eddie Mair show daily at this time is brilliant - he is their US correspondent - very incisive and very entertaining in his language - just referring to Rudi as a clown and Sidney Powell as a nutcase ha ha
He just played Tucker Carlsson jumping off the Trump train last night saying were Tucker a deep sea diver he'd be surfacing so fast he's in danger of getting the bends ha ha ha

For what it's worth quite a few former FBI/CIA/Prosecutors in the media have also put forward similar theories.

So Norton might not be qualified himself but people who are think similarly to him.

Pretty much my takeaway as well. Is doesn't necessarily matter what you get him for. That sounds almost like there's a witch hunt. :-)
 
But what do you suggest? If the President isn't going to abide by the rules, laws, traditions, and history of his predecessors, and his party is going to be complicit in ignoring them and enable such, what Constitution is fit for purpose? Anyhow, I'm not sure I agree -- the courts are doing what they are supposed to thus far; this isn't going anywhere. It's a pantomime. A pantomime that will allow Trump and his supporters to live in a fantasy land where they had the election stolen. And -- far more importantly -- will allow Trump and those in on the Trump con to fleece the snot out of the hapless.
What use is your right to bear arms, if you’re not allowed shoot the ****?

2nd amendment, my arse.
 
Ummmmm, mate, if the evidence cited for the conclusion that the system is insecure in Michigan comes entirely from "data" from townships in FUCKING MINNESOTA, I don't think we really need to concern ourselves with trusting the remainder of what this consultant errrr liar errrr fraud errrr grifter errr human piece of giraffe shit wrote.
He's bad at geography doesn't mean he is bad at computers. My main reason to ask is I am friends with a Trumper who uncritically repeats all of his election claims. I'd like to be able to challenge his assertions
