just as serious -- and equal with in importance -- as the incumbent president who's always expected to run for a second term.

and talk about the Manhattan hush-money case he was told not to talk about. I think the latter is more probable.

But if they go through with this, they belong to him.
The art of domination - you get someone to go along with something they know is wrong, then do it again, and again, worse and worse.

Nobody will be able to keep him on task, nobody will shush him when he goes off on Grievance No. 752 again, and nobody will even try very hard. CNN needs a ratings success, and it doesn't matter much what they air as long as the eyeballs are watching.
