Happy Indictment Day To All Who Celebrate!

The list of indictment charges are expected to be read at 2:15 pm today, during Trump's arraignment. Via the New York Times:

Donald J. Trump is expected to surrender to the authorities in Manhattan on Tuesday and appear in court for the first time as a criminal defendant to face more than two dozen felony charges, a remarkable spectacle that will play out before a divided nation.

The charges, the first ever against a former American president, stem from a hush-money payment to a porn star that was made days before Mr. Trump was elected in 2016. He is expected to be accused of playing a role in covering up the payment, even as he led the nation as commander in chief.

And no, MAGAts, it isn't "just like Jesus" and this isn't Trump's "Passion Week." He's just a thug whose hearing happens to be scheduled this week.

I think people are forgetting one simple fact about the indictments against Donald:

The evidence is very strong.

Trump's indictment last week was the end of the Republican primary. Just as we predicted, every single Republican fell in line in support of a criminal who has repeatedly violated the Constitution, tried to steal an election, & incited an insurrection. This is their top choice.

It is a sign of Trump's unique level of disrepute that a lawyer at a big NY firm had to resign in order to represent him.

BREAKING: Finland will become a NATO member Tomorrow.

Isn't it ironic that Trump's biggest fear, indictment, and Putin's biggest fear, the expansion of NATO, are happening on the exact same day?

Finland's addition to NATO means that Putin's aggression has been a net NEGATIVE.… pic.twitter.com/c72WBdc43C
