12:22 AM, and Trump's still attacking Romney and screaming "Read the Transcripts!"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

Had failed presidential candidate @MittRomney devoted the same energy and anger to defeating a faltering Barack Obama as he sanctimoniously does to me, he could have won the election. Read the Transcripts!

just as many others have.

I disagree with Romney’s political views, but he comported himself with dignity today and should be given credit for that.

and yet Trump keeps yelling at people to read them...

A more damning thing, of course, is all of the Congressional, under-oath House testimony which anyone could have watched live and still can watch anew on-line. In some ways Trump encouraging people to read the transcript is directing those people to the *least* incriminating, but still totally implicating, evidence.

Although just the cleaned up readout of the 7-25-19 call is enough to convict.

can't read, but of those who can I'm willing to bet none of them have read the transcripts. So they merrily read the Liar in Chief's tweets and believe every word their cult Leader vomits out to them. A perfect storm of stupidity.

Or he would have said nothing. Lets hope he runs against trump, he should. Lets hope Romney gets dirt on trump so he has something to expose on him. Romney's no saint here , he wouldn't convict trump for abuse of power which is ongoing now.

Miller goes for the grandiose, authoritarian "The president WILL NOT BE QUESTIONED" angle, while Grisham and Conway are more snarky. They both go for what they think is "cute and snarky," Miller goes for the Goebbles angle.
