ago, actually, we got a pretty good window into how trump s legal team plans to make their arguments. and let me tell you, this brief, i read it today, it includes a fair number of arguments from an alternate universe. for starters, trump s lawyers claim that the former president is not in fact and officer of the united states, which is who the 14th amendment covers. now, this is not a new or surprising argument necessarily being made by the trump team. but let s be real. it kind of defies logic. i mean, how could it be that the president of the united states is not an officer of the united states with an obligation, by the way, to abide by the constitution. it s kind of what the founders had in mind. but then, there s the other, perhaps even more startling piece, at least to me, of revisionist history that is included in this brief, that donald trump did not engage in an insurrection. in fact, according to the argument here, it was not an insurrection at all. the brief actua

from bolting and going to somewhere where they could be in the uaw. and the public reaction to this was interesting.bl the public was overwhelmingly in support of the autoworkers while they were on this strike. polls showed like 75% of the public supported the autoworkers in this strike.rt so this is a historic thing, a a big deal. but if you think back to september, right when we were at the start of it, before we knew it would work, before we knew it would be successful, before we knew how it would turn out, how much public opinion would be in support of these guys, when we were less than two weeks into that strike, do you remember what president biden did? you might remember. president biden went to michigan and joined the autoworkers. from the white house, he had been supporting them vocally. he had been trying to help facilitate negotiations but once they indeed went on strike, he physically went to michigan to w one of the plants that was being picketed and he stood wit
