I'm looking forward to Trump's fireside chat where he...

reads the notes from the phone call word for word. One problem though. He cant read. Have you ever noticed how many mistakes he makes when trying to read from a teleprompter? Make sure you have your own copy in front of you at the time and check that he doesn't add or subtract words.

We will hear crazy. That’s how divided we are, and we are right. They think they are right.

It's just another way for him to say, "I'm open about all this, so it can't be wrong."

But he, or at least his staff, know that reading the call summary would be a disaster for him.

"If he was guilty he wouldn't be so open and proud about it, right Bubba? Guilty people try to hide their crimes."
