OK, but don't they teach that at Ivy League law schools? I mean, that's the point of going, right?

Yes he incited the storming of the Capitol.

No, he will likely NOT be made to pay for it.

I'm already seeing the signs that it will turn out this way, America did not learn from the end of the civil war at all.

I've heard of poutine. Sounds promising.

Imagine the coaching it took to get that jagoff to pronounce "egregious" properly! Or, how about electors "lawfully slated??" If it turns out that's a correct usage, I am just so fucking sure that DJT had it in his hip pocket, that fucking ignoramus. Yeah, this is small beans, bqwhtevr, when is anybody ready to start with the big beans?? Trump encouraged an armed insurrection against our duly elected government. That seems like a reasonably large bean. Let's go for that, shall we?

“I will split the Party if you don’t protect me, so I can split the Party later, or you can just let me take back over."

That sounds to me more like the ruthless cunning of someone like McConnell, than it does the blundering incompetence of Dumb-ass Don. If it was DD's idea, it could probably be better paraphrased as "I can split the party later, or you can just let me take back over, and I'll destroy the party sooner."

More to your point though, thanks for bringing me back to awareness of the dangers of underestimating one's opponents.

ON EDIT: Remember, this is a guy who opened a competing casino right nearby his other new one in Atlantic City, and bankrupted both. Did he learn anything from that fiasco? Is he even capable of learning anything new? Is it a stretch to imagine that he has some cockamamie fantasy wherein building his new third party will result in a net increase of his market share? I guess we'll find out in time.

Thought it might be popular 'round these parts. Glad to oblige.

I'm unsure about about cheese curds. Did not see it in Anglophone NB.

But gravy on fries was popular, I took to it readily.

Isn't it petit? I'm such a petty dude. (And a bit of a dick...)

The evidence on this can't be made widely public a minute too soon. Why don't these stories get on national teevee??

One of the most bizarre things about this whole shitshow is when The Dotard said

TRUMP: And after this, we're gonna walk down — and I'll be there with you ...

How many of his fanbois actually think he can trundle for more than one hundred feet on his own, let alone the mile-and-a-half from The White House to The Capitol?

No.The Constitution sets out the qualifications for federal office, and only an amendment can add to them.
