“(The President) Has To Lead Now”

In a frantic text message to the former president’s chief of staff, Don Jr. wrote, “He (my father) has to lead now.”

That’s kind of interesting, isn’t it?

It seems to be a suggestion that he wasn’t leading before that moment.  While this is obvious to the majority of Americans, and nearly everyone in countries around the world, it seems stunning Trump’s own son was aware of it.

What was he doing?  I don’t know, maybe lying, cheating, extorting, obstructing, self-aggrandizing, election tampering, and committing fraud.

Now, says Don Jr., it’s time to put all that aside, at least for the few minutes it’s going to take to order the insurrectionists out of the Capitol.
