Donald Trump misses the Office of the Presidency. He doesn't miss the work (which he didn't do) or the criticism (that he richly deserved). He misses the immunity from prosecution he enjoyed. And the grift.

So predictable. Enjoy the new kind of fun, Donnie!

That's the other guy alright: always lining up victims to run cover for him. In this case an entire government and its people. Hope he has fun reading his subpoenas. Once the authorities started digging there's so many layers of rotten onion to peel off the numerous raw deals. The ones below are just older examples: investigative reports from 2017: the Panama Ocean Club. Small wonder the word "racketeering" floated up from the muck minus the cement shoes. These are long reads.

He misses people treating him like he's somebody special and important. I'm sure his ego is bent out of shape out of shape bigly after having that for 4 years and then losing it.

People do not get subpoenaed "for no reason at all". I think the pressure is getting to "Gums". He - and the rest of TrumpCo. - know the law is finally catching up with them, and they're in deep, deep tapioca.

I'm going to enjoy every second of the impending trial, sentencing, and imprisonment of that white trash family.

Maybe "I'm on the receiving end. Every single day..." will take on a new and happy meaning for you. This paper blizzard can't last forever, can it?
