everything you did is not presidential, so to speak. to saying now the supreme court will look at how a case normally goes through to get to the supreme court. this is significant, ian. it is. i think jack smith s being very smart trying to make this move as fast as possible. you don t want a situation where like on october 20th the supreme court throws out a conviction because of some procedural rule that no one anticipated. ordinarily i advocate for the supreme court to do as little as possible. you want narrow that s not because i don t like the supreme court. that s good judging. you don t want judges to overreach, but in this case i think we want the court to give us as much guidance as possible as to how this trial is going to be run. it s an unprecedented case. right. it s a case where the stakes are enormous. the voters need to know if this man is a convicted felon when it comes time for the election and so i am hoping that the supreme court is going to tell t

to try to be bipartisan. if chelsea clinton had such a meeting with a russian person weirdly coming from putin land, they would be out to tar and feather her and everybody else. it is not something that anybody would let go unless you re a total partisan. what do we know about trump s physical knowledge of what happened in that meeting last june? we don t have a lot of knowledge about it. he said he only learned about the meeting a few days ago when it came up as part of the story. and he did not know about it at the time. why did he say he would give a speech with a lot of doirt hillary after that happened? that s a hell of a coincidence. it is a very interesting coincidence that s what it is. hours after donald trump jr. hits the button saying, yes, let s have this meeting, his father gives a victory speech at the last primary day saying he would give a major speech with hillary clinton s crooked dealings with the russians and other foreign governments. that s a rather interest
