Trump's attorney in his "hush money trial" said yesterday in court "There's nothing wrong with trying to influence an election. It's called democracy." No, that is called political warfare. Democracy is (supposed to be) giving the people the FACTS and letting them decide. Feeding the people an endless firehose of lies is called a con game. The real voter fraud isn't at the ballot box, it's in the voters' minds. May the best information warfare campaign win.

Meanwhile, Trump's North Carolina campaign rally on Saturday had to be cancelled due to bad weather. Take a hint, Donald. God is sick of your bullshit. He just wants you to shut the f up.

Also, just because whenever you walk into a room people say "Oh, Jesus" does NOT mean you ARE Jesus!

An MSNBC Legal Analyst, Adam Klasfeld, was inside the courtroom yesterday. He reported on The Last Word last night that a juror was nodding along (in apparent agreement, I surmise) when Trump’s lawyer said, “There's nothing wrong with trying to influence an election. It's called democracy." My stomach sank.

In years of public speaking I've learned that nodding people in the audience doesn't necessarily signify agreement. Sometimes it's just to show that the audience member is listening closely. That happens more when women are doing the nodding; men don't do it very often.

However that's not what he's charged with. In our democracy, conning voters is not a crime, falsifying business records in the process is.
