The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

At some point Trumpian lies and innuendo must be relegated to the trashpile on which it rightfully belongs.

It looks like Trump is prepping the audience for a guilty verdict, but there are multiple counts and the verdict will likely be mixed - it all seems to ride on intent and lets hope the jury sees the intent in Cohen's testimony. It was rehabbed a little by the last witness. I'd like at least two counts that show intent, then I think it can survive appeals. But I'm not experienced at all, so I'm just guessing after reading others with experience.

But take a look at it, the really big cases against Trump were caused by him as he left office. I was dumbfounded by the Top Secret Documents case - that was so easy to avoid. And Jan 6? Who would have thunk there would be an attempt to thwart the election based on legal bunk made up by Roger Stone? Who are these people throwing away their law licenses? Look at Rudy - I bet he lost money working for Trump.

Trump getting elected again would be a bitter pill - and it's very possible.
