She's a Trumper who got fired. Who on earth would hire her?

She’ll get hired after she finished her book. I wouldn’t worry about her.

She won't need to work.

Trump wanted a toady to kiss his fat fanny and Meadows did it so well that he has a permanent brown stain around his lips and it ain't chocolate.

Hmm. He'll fight it, I presume, just like the other losers.

Executive Privilege belongs to current president not former presidents and Biden is not exercising EP. So Cippolone isn't going to skate on this. Like the rest of his WH cronies he could ignore subpoena but as a practicing lawyer this would not seem to be a good idea.

He worked for trump and anyone who worked for trump is equally corrupt.

He might not.
These guys are gonna go down.
He has an off ramp here.

You'd think. The classic method of a hearing, which to have the small fry testify so they can implicate the bigger fry in the hope that they will testify and incriminate the big fish, has worked in the past. But the Trump group is one tough nut to crack, PP. I'm sure some of these folks still believe they have enough supporters to carry the mid-terms and 2024 Presidency, and that their careers are best served sticking to lies.

They've been mighty light on him so far. Most of the testimony about him has been him objecting to various schemes. He'd also be very credible and isolate the scheme to the most political/MAGA of the cast of characters. They also puffed up Elaine Chao (McConnell) and (billionaire) Betsy DeVos. Liz is making a play. Once the primaries are over then Trump has no benefit other than as a fundraiser, which is not something he does for other people.

Watch Laura Ingraham for tea leaves. I hate this timeline.

So you're afraid that since the last primaries are in September, the Jan 6th committee won't really get going with the major witnesses until then? And at that point, they might be under pressure not to continue because it would be too close to the mid-terms?

I think he will testify.

Trump tried to use violent men to overthrow the government. That seems bad. I can understand why his cult members might want to talk about a car. If that gets old, I guess they can also get to work on him smashing plates of ketchup on the walls like a toddler.

now it's being reported that Meadows denies he asked for a pardon, so clearly Hutchinson is lying about THAT too

I feel like everything they do they learned from Jersey mobsters. Like those everything I needed to know for life I learned in Kindergarten…but for Trump’s it’s “I learned in Atlantic City and the NYC refuse collection industry.”

Watch the whole 2 hours of the hearing. It’s not about the steering wheel.

And the fact that the trumpers can only talk about the steering wheel must mean they don't want to touch the rest of it. She never even said he grabbed the wheel. She just said that she was told that story.

Not to be pedantic but she said he reached for the wheel, not that he grabbed it. But, I agree it’s not the salient point. His enraged state of mind is, which has been well known for quite some time. The steering wheel vignette has caught everyone’s attention because it’s so easy to imagine him doing it.

Bullshit with this "it's being reported." Meadows needs to APPEAR and TESTIFY.

Cipollline is the only major witness with any credibilty. The rest are clowns. If they get him to testify then it's game over.

Trump's power among Republicans will be at it's ebb and his utility will be low then. It'd be the last time the GOP could switch horses for 2024.

He wasn’t “scrolling on his phone!” He was most likely coordinating with the Rep Perry/ Roger Stone/ insurrectionists on his burner phone. I think one of the reasons that Hutchinson spoke so much about “Mark being on his phone“ is because once Jan6 get Meadows Signal texts, they’ll be able to match it up with her testimony of what he was doing while she was relaying the horrors of what was going on.

These hearing have been a way for witnesses to whitewash their reputations. Cip maybe was waiting for a subpoena, gives him cover.
