tRump's Georgia hearing is not going well for him...

The arguments will be grist for comedy shows over the next week:

- Asked court to delete phrase "fake elector" from indictment, which does not exist.
- Electors are not "officials"
- Forgeries were not forgeries..

Too many for me to cover. Tune in the MSNBC legal commentators. Will be hilarious.
