Firing Bondi is a distraction from well, everything

His disastrous speech last night and the market's reaction, his lower and still sinking poll numbers in every category, and his bombing of a civilian target in the Iran War are just a few.

The fact that nothing is going well means he is flailing and pointing at any shiny object screaming "Look over there!" And the press looks.

I'm glad she's gone but I refuse to be distracted. Todd Blanche is not an upgrade. Remember he was the one who moved Maxwell to a cushy prison camp. Neither is anyone trump would select. They are horrible if they agree to work for him.

I also am not interested in the inside gossip of how he told her she was fired, or the dynamics of their relationship. But I guess he still knows how to distract the media if nothing else.

who is usually really good on TV saying something like he doesn't have any knowledge of Blanche hiding the Epstein files or something like that. He seemed to think that Blanche would be an improvement, but I disagree.

evidence, thousands of witnesses, all those bank statements, and all those emails.

Trump was raping girls and he was part of
an international child sex trafficking ring.
Even after starting a war with Iran he is guilty end of story.
