“If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.” static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics... All of this. All. Of. It.

Context for those (like DJT) who don't know geog: This is like saying you opened a levee on the Mississippi and water "poured down" into AZ or NV There are MOUNTAINS IN THE WAY. The water doesn't "flow down" from Miss to AZ, or Canada/PNW/Central Valley to LA. He is thinking of "up" on a map.

Truth: Simply being present in the U.S. without legal authorization is not a crime: it is a civil offense, not subject to criminal punishment. False: Leavitt's statement below that everyone who broke immigration laws is a criminal. Now let's ask if Trump-Homan policies are based on same falsehood

The NYT printed this in its op-ed section this AM: "A central pillar of American democracy is that no man is above the law. But Mr. Trump isn’t an ordinary man." Wrong. America doesn't have a king or a divine ruler. We elect an ORDINARY MAN as president.
