The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: Old man yells at cloud, presidential edition.

I believe Jared from Subway is calling collect on the other line.

If there’s really a press conference tomorrow, I think it’s unlikely to be related to Biden but possibly related to election security.

It didn’t get much attention, but the FBI released a 9-minute video on election security yesterday featuring Wray and several other NatSec people. The implicit message was that Trump is full of shit and they’re all over election security and there’s nothing to worry about and every should vote with confidence.

At first I thought the press conference might be an extension of this message. They know he’s losing and they want to distance themselves from his nonsense (and hopefully Barr is incapacitated with Covid and couldn’t stop them).

But one of the people on the list is a very specific US Attorney from Virginia, G. Zachary Terwilliger. He wouldn’t be there for some generic election security assurances, so that sort of undercuts my theory. He’s probably not there unless they’re announcing charges or indictments or whatever.

Googling Terwilliger brings up some recent cases involving Russian hackers/trolls as well as Edward Snowden and Covid PPP fraud.

So it could be anything, but I’m finding it hard to believe this is some bombshell designed to upend the election in Trump’s favor. Wray’s not pivoting from that election security video he did yesterday to indicting Obama tomorrow.

Finally, G. Zachary Terwilliger is a badass name and also he looks like 90% Don Draper and 10% Rob Riggle.

Help. I just went and looked at the raw Trump twitter feed. Who the duck is Sperry?

Playing the hits from 2016. Look at the 302s. Jfc is he having a flashback to his own personal ‘nam?

I need to go take a shower.

No tweets or RTs in a few minutes. It might be over. Or perhaps he dropped the phone and is currently coughing up a lung.

just had this little text exchange with a friend of mine who has lupus

Me:

Me: Trump has retweeted 42x in the last two hours, bunch of insane retweets too
Her: that’s because those steroids make you literally crazy. You don’t sleep, feel amazing and have like zero impulse control
Me: and hes got the nuke codes
Her: I took them for a year before they moved me to another drug and basically slept 3 hours a night
Me: this shit is going to get so wild in the next month. he really does need to die
Her: He’s just going to get way more unhinged, like he barely functions without a background disease

I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump is hooking people up with Regeneron if they keep their pozzing quiet. Pence? Barr?

Lol like Trump could keep quiet about that even if they agreed to zip their lips.

Yes but it was 10h ago. Trump lost the election since then, so a lot has happened.

That was exactly the plot of “White House Down” except the cook was in the FBI. He and his daughter were taking a tour immediately after being rejected for the Secret Service when the bad guys launched their assault.

So you agree there is precedent.
