Donald ("Hemingway, eat your heart out!) Trump is texting: "The money funds were depleted, sweating, leaning against the wall beside the rushing flow. The creditors will breach the door any second, they thought, then we'll hav to learn to start breating underwater fast."
then
"'That one is blind,' he thought. Flynn knew his alleys. 'He's got to come out sometime. And when he does, I'll have some pointed suggestions.'"
then
"KellyAnne slowly lifted her skirt. I knew I shouldn't look, but I was a goner."
then
"The Clinton troops had sucked the countryside dry. There were only a few groves left for cover. 'It isn't much,' I thought, 'but with any luck I could be in camp by nightfall.'"
etc.

Kris ("If we can't find fraud, that proves it's there!"
Kobach is saying: "My critics are saying that I asked the Secretaries of State in every state of the nation for such specific information, including precise and detailed voting records and party affiliation, race, any background checks performed at either the state or local level, their mother's maiden name, and next of kin so that Republicans can use the data to suppress the vote. . . . Nothing could be further from the truth. We simply like to have accurate and up-to-date to base our policies on and if the public has access, there's another bonus: some private individuals might like to post warnings concerning illegal voting with all the penalties listed outside the polling places of certain precincts. . . . That's not suppression; that's just urging people to be good citizens."

Trump is thinking: "Call ME unbalanced, will they? . . . Let's see: 'Joe and Mika call ME unbalanced while they're infringing on the rights of Loony Tunes. Ever note the size of her ears?' That's 136. What else? Oh yeah: 'LOL!' . . . Call ME unbalance, will they?"

Trump: "Listen, I've got to apologize for what I tweeted this morning. . . . When I wrote that Mika Brzeszinski was 'bleeding badly from a face-lift,' that implies that's the only place she was bleeding from. . . . I don't want to give anyone a miss-impressions. . . .

Donald ("You look like that and I'm supposed to take you seriously?"

Donald ("Never enough enablers"
Trump is saying: "So now it turns out that even if I DID collude, that's no crime. . . . That's what all the real experts are saying. Collusion is just a form of negotiation. . . . It's the quiet type that gets a lot of great things done. . . . In fact, the country should applaud me for collusion, make me President for Life or something. . . . Not that I DID collude, you understand. . . . Just so you know."
*****************************************************************************
Something is fast approaching, coming down the pike. Both Trump and Fox are hyping this collusion-is-no-crime theme as though they are aware revelations are nearly at hand, as covered in this fine DU post (With a link to a piece in Independent Reporter):

Donald ("Undo the Vote"
Trump is saying: "Kris, I'm glad a man of your reputation for honesty and fairness will head my Voter Integrity Probe. . . . I have to thank you for successfully keeping the 2016 election as straight as possible by helping to purge 1.1 million fraudulent voters from the roles. . . . Image, Victor Hernandez trying to pretend to be two different people by using different middle names and then voting in different states! . . . Or what about James Brown or Sam Washington or Maria Garcia! . . . Well, you're a genius is all I can say. . . . Welcome aboard."
