in a courtroom on the witness stand is not a good place to throw one of your phony theatrical tantrums.

Practically speaking he ranks as one of the most evil motherfuckers of the last 50 years.

(206,520 posts)9. That has to be it. We know that TFG has rabid "supporters,"

And it destroyed itself because of pure greed and hatred.
