As said many, many times in the past, Donald Trump is nothing if not predictable. He feels abused by the January 6 Committee. He hates Liz Cheney, more and more each day, as a matter of fact.
As expected, he lashed out on Truth Social. What is surprising is that he did it before the third session of the eight-session congressional hearing commenced. Isn’t that intriguing?
He’s ranting and raving about the hearing today because he knows how bad it’s going to be for him. ? pic.twitter.com/I7RCNhoyH0

Isn’t that choice?
Trumpty issued a 12-page rebuttal the other day, after the second congressional hearing. Here are a few lowlights.
11. “The Swamp was so determined to keep their stranglehold on power that they delayed the results of the Election so that they could find, manufacture, or produce more ballots, after they knew how many they needed to beat me.”“To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election,” Barr said on December 1, 2020.12. “There’s no reasonable explanation for why it took so much longer to count the few remaining ballots as opposed to the millions on Election Day — other than they needed to traffic more ballots, and it took four days to produce the ballots and do it.”Aside from simply claiming it to be so, Trump offers no evidence for his claim that there were “few remaining ballots” left to be counted after Election Day. The reason he doesn’t offer any proof for this claim is that none exists.13. “Like drug mules, in this context, mules are those paid to illegally traffic ballots from nonprofits organizations and drop them into the ballot drop boxes.”It’s well worth watching — or reading — Barr’s complete takedown from Monday’s hearing of the film “2,000 Mules” which is where Trump gets this bogus information. Here’s the gist of it in one Barr quote: “If you take 2 million cell phones and figure out where they are physically in a big city like Atlanta or wherever, just by definition, you will find many hundreds of them have passed by and spent time in the vicinity of these boxes.”
Hit the link to CNN if you want to read more of this. This was a few days ago. Now that Trump has been proven to have set up his own vice president to be murdered by a lynch mob, the next rebuttal ought to be more juicy.
Oscar Wilde said it best in The Picture Of Dorian Gray: “A man can never be too careful in his choice of enemies.” In deciding to push Liz Cheney out through his puppet Kevin McCarthy, he made a poor choice indeed. She not only is now motivated to destroy him utterly but has also made credible common cause with the people who can make that happen.
So, of course he fears her. It’s one of the few smart thoughts he has left in his brain.
Trumpler fears and loathes Liz Cheney, with an intensity which must be snarling his guts, and which is intensified by the fact that she’s a woman. Imagine: Donald’s biggest & scariest enemy right now is a mere female! The only way it could get any worse would be if Liz was either Latino or African-American.
