(The Guardian) The Democratic National Committee is out with a statement mocking Donald Trump for calling in what they dub “emotional support” at his business fraud trial in New York City.
“Donald Trump is convening the saddest posse of MAGA loyalists in Lower Manhattan today, desperate for emotional support and political cover as he spends another week tending to his personal affairs rather than talking to actual voters,” their rapid response director Alex Floyd said.
Referring to the potential running mates who have turned up at the Manhattan courthouse over the past two days, Floyd went on: Trump’s pathetic band of MAGA extremists seemingly have nothing better to do than echo Trump’s lies and nod approvingly in the background – because they certainly aren’t doing their day jobs of serving their constituents or running a functional political operation. If deploying this motley crew of cranks and conspiracy theorists was the Trump campaign’s ham-handed attempt to divert attention from their candidate’s disappearance from the campaign trail, they’re in for a stormy six months ahead.”
