    “He’s trying to injure his opponent,” said Trump. “They’re trying to hurt the opponent because they can’t win fair and square—”

    At this point, the network cut away, announcing an upcoming segment on Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

    Hmm…wonder if this has anything to do with the settlements on them airing false election claims.

    Fox doesn’t want to have to state the fact that the election wasn’t stolen in contradiction to Trump, so they rather cut away before he says it.

      But who would sue them for this? They aren’t blaming devices or companies here. They’re blaming Biden, DOJ, the system and anything else in the government they can.

    The last few days of the trial saw a huge explosion of drama.

    At the beginning of the week, Trump defense counsel Todd Blanche got the former president’s ex-attorney Michael Cohen, a star witness for the prosecution, to admit he stole money from the Trump Organization, to attempt to cast doubt on the idea Trump knew all the financial decisions Cohen made on his behalf with hush payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Things derailed for the defense, however, when they called Cohen’s former legal adviser Robert Costello to the stand, who proceeded to antagonize the judge and admit under cross-examination that he was manipulating Cohen to Trump’s benefit.

    Heh heh heh
