"Domestically, Trump pledges to repopulate the justice and state departments with his sycophants, to stack the Supreme Court with more extremists, to prosecute and jail his opponents, to abolish the Environmental Protection Agency and the department of education, to ban the teaching of Black history, and to abandon school meals programs for kids":

I grew up with lotsa kids whose grandparents spoke Yiddish & had numbers on their forearms

IMO, that grammar at the end is a signal of dementia timewarp for someone who has lived in New York

That said, it IS a thoroughly shafgoofy af thing to say as part of one's #ClosingArgument 😒🙄

#MichelleObama Had the Best #ClosingArgument of the #Campaign

The former #FirstLady distilled what this #election is really about.

“I am asking you all, from the core of my being, to take our lives seriously,” she implored. “Please, please do not hand our fates over to the likes of Trump, who knows nothing about us, who has shown deep contempt for us. A vote for him is a vote against us.

#ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump’s #Ugly #ClosingArgument.

He delivers a #mix of #disinformation, #falseclaims about #cheating in #elections and #personal #attacks

— You know the mantra: “Every Republican accusation is actually an admission of their own guilt.” They love to project their desires, actions, and motivations onto their opponents.

Joshua #Steinglass opens prosecution’s #ClosingArgument by reminding the #jury that during opening statements, his colleague said that the case, at its core, is about “a conspiracy & a coverup.”

He then delineates 3 elements that the prosecution must prove: That there were false business records, that they were used as part of the conspiracy & that #Trump himself was involved.

Jury reaches verdict in E. Jean Carroll case against Donald Trump

#Reuters #JuryVerdict #EJeanCarroll #DonaldTrump #LegalCase #ClosingArgument #Politics #News

Before deliberating, the senators — 19 #Republicans & 12 #Democrats — heard closing arguments from the #House #impeachment managers, #Republican lawmakers who acted as the #prosecution, & from #Paxton’s lawyers.

“The #defense isn’t that he didn’t do it, it’s that it doesn’t matter because he won the election,” Rep Andrew #Murr, a West #Texas Republican who led the impeachment managers, said in his #ClosingArgument. “That is a godless, rudderless morality, & it cannot be the new normal in TX.”
