Well, I see that the rabid left is in seventh heaven over Trump’s conviction. However, those of us with more than two brain cells to rub together see that his trial has been nothing but the most amazing load of absolute rubbish seen in quite some time, a show trial that would have had Joe Stalin hanging his head in shame. (And didn’t judge Merchan do an absolutely dynamite Roland Freisler impersonation?)

Every bit of lawfare the left has thrown at Trump has done nothing but increase the man’s popularity. It doesn’t take the gift of prophecy to realize that this will do the same.

For myself, I’ll be voting for Trump a third time, if I have to write the man’s name in — providing Jao Bai-Den and Company don’t seize on some pretext to declare martial law and cancel the election.
