Trump Now Demanding That Biden Take Drug Test Before Debate
Manage episode 425742952 series 3496469
Donald Trump is so nervous about his debate with President Biden on Thursday that he is now demanding that the President take a drug test before the debate. Trump says that he'll gladly take one, too, but no drug tests are going to happen. Instead, Trump is setting up an excuse for a potentially poor performance at the debate so that he won't have to admit defeat if Biden over-performs on Thursday.
Also, election workers in Georgia are facing an unprecedented number of threats from Trump supporters, but the local sheriff says that these threats of death and violence aren't actually crimes. Threatening speech is actually not protected by the First Amendment, which means that these threats are actually criminal acts, but right wing cops don't want to have to prosecute their fellow Trump supporters.
And in a campaign email to his supporters this week, Donald Trump claimed that he was "tortured" in a Georgia prison. The only problem with this claim is that it is completely untrue, as Trump only spent enough time in Fulton County jail to get a mugshot and have his fingerprints taken - a process that he said was pleasant at the time. He even said at the time that some of the jail workers were crying as they processed him.
Finally, more incriminating evidence against Donald Trump has emerged in the documents case, and this time it came from his own lawyer. Evan Corcoran, who worked with Trump to provide documents and information to the government before the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, kept detailed notes of his meetings with Trump. It has now been revealed that those notes include mentions of Trump being afraid to turn over the documents because he thought he would be criminally charged if he did. This is called "consciousness of guilt," and usually guarantees a conviction.
