On the other hand, I'm not a middle schooler, so I'm proud that I didn't know about it. Those who handled it smelled it, honor.
But then who am I? “Maybe he was too busy with his trial on January 6th,” a friend kindly advised.
if you can! The truth is, between following the Karen Reed trial and trying to reach the level of “genius” with my favorite word game, I had become ignorant enough to be on Trump’s jury.
My employment contract provides for paid sick days and bereavement days, so why didn't Mr. Trump take paid vacation days? Given how long President Trump is likely to be with us, unions should demand five Trump days per month of employment to pursue the former president's legal issues. I wonder? Or wait a minute. You may be able to take advantage of the jury's working hours. Does it make sense to see Jon Stewart mock the defendant?
The trial is about to begin, so here's what you need. There's already a Trump gag tracker you haven't checked out, and a Trump trial recap article you haven't subscribed to. “You know Politico does a compilation with bobbleheads,” my friend said.
Sorry, no.
Also, actors Glenn Close and Robert De Niro were brought in to read excerpts from the MSNBC podcast “The Prosecution of Donald Trump,” and Triumph, a puppet voiced by comedian Robert Smigel, was also featured.・I didn't even know that The Insult Comic Dog was filming an interview. A crowd gathered outside a New York courthouse last week.
“The stakes are so high that people don't realize this,” Doll says in his trademark gravel-smoking voice. White House. “
Media outlets are pumping out special episodes, newsletters, shows, TikToks, and Instagram reels about the Trump trial until there's no time left in the day to listen, watch, or read. Podcasts alone are growing rapidly, so you might start bringing in other people's laundry so you have an excuse to listen while you fold.
Oh my god! I just stumbled upon CNN's point-by-point “live updates” feed. At X, highly qualified people are live-tweeting what's going on. As the jury entered the courtroom, Mr. Trump looked up and the judge told the jury they would take a 10-minute break, but the objections largely remained.
There are so many of them, and they're often so informative and interesting, that unless you're very fast, every time you spend reading them means you'll fall further behind. The only time you can catch up is after court has adjourned for the day, at which point you'll need to switch from detailed live tweets to recaps, highlights, or “what you need to know.” You need to switch to CNN. A commission of former prosecutors and defense attorneys will begin.
How can you make your point at a cocktail party if you don't know where members of the defense and prosecution teams went to law school? Unless you have to go out at all! Tell me you're home to check on Trump news. Everyone will understand.
