GOP senators were a vision of spinelessness as they slobbered over the convicted felon who nearly got them killed on Jan. 6, 2021. The felon, however, looked and sounded quite diminished.
He spoke to a gathering of reporters in what seemed to be a planned press conference. But after five minutes, the guy who seems like he can never get enough attention called it quits and refused to take questions.
Trump pretends to be so brave he’s willing to face down a guillotine. In reality, he is too frightened to deal with questions about his 34 recent felony convictions, the 54 felony charges he still faces, the $464 million New York fraud judgment against him, the $83.3 million defamation verdict arising out of sexual abuse of E. Jean Carroll, his incitement of the Jan. 6 insurrection, his lies about the 2016 election or any of his other countless lies. Or maybe he just can’t deal with talking to anyone not a shameless toady.
Or maybe the 78-year-old Trump is just not up to it, period.
Meanwhile, the Biden campaign noticed his frailty. They’re letting everyone else see it, too.
