Donald Trump's lead criminal defense attorney, Todd Blanche, gave an interview this week where he may have said more than he should have. The lawyer described the disgusting fast food hillbilly buffet that Trump had every day during his trial, which consisted of McDonald's, pizzas, and Hostess snack cakes. Blanche claims he actually lost weight by avoiding the food, but Trump pigged out on a daily basis.
Also, Republican Representative Victoria Spartz is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee over reports that she is abusive to her staff. Reports suggest that Spartz has used slurs like the R-word to her staff, while dropping "about a million" f-bombs at them. But it goes beyond the verbal abuse - some staffers claim that she's actually violating the law by asking official staffers for campaign advice.
And a new poll has found that Republican voters' attitudes towards having a convicted felon running for president have suddenly changed. In April, only 17% of Republicans said that they were ok with it, but a new poll found that 58% of Republicans now say they are fine with having a felon on the ticket. That number is actually still pretty low, and it doesn't change the other polls that show Trump hemorrhaging support since his conviction.
Finally, Judge Aileen Cannon has scheduled a hearing for later this month where she's going to allow the unprecedented step of having some of Donald Trump's friends and allies come in and make arguments about why Jack Smith shouldn't be allowed to prosecute Trump. This is nothing short of insanity, as these people are not connected to the case in any way and should not even be given the courtesy of a response from the court - let alone the chance to speak against the prosecutor. Cannon needs to be impeached and removed from the bench due to her behavior.
