Trump acts like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

I have never seen a more angry or helpless look than when he went on his tirade yesterday.

He has always been able to outsmart government authorities at every level of his life. He always had his lawyers to protect him from criminal liability or to pay off those that might threaten his way of life. Money has always been his ticket to freedom and independence. No one would dare to come between he and his lawyer, because of lawyer/client privilege. That thought has always comforted him.

Until yesterday. The raids on his lawyer's home, office, and hotel room was totally shocking and something the smartest man in the world never anticipated. His huge balloons, like his ego, were burst. He was flailing about like a carp in the sand.

The Attorney General is supposed to protect him from these sort of attacks and investigations. What did Sessions think his job was supposed to be anyway?

Somebody doesn't understand the law and the concept of justice.

America, HE is the center of the universe. It doesn't occur to him that he is one little player in the whole scheme of things. God, I hate him with a passion.
