Let's recap Trump's Tuesday.
- The Trump Organization was convicted on all 17 counts of tax fraud and other criming.
- The January 6th Commission has made criminal referrals.
- Jack Smith, the Special Counsel, has subpoenaed Trump's minions trying to overturn the election.
- Trump's ritual humiliation in the midterm elections were capped by Walker's defeat in Georgia.
Trump's entire (false) public persona is that of the billionaire "winner" who wins by always winning. It's a self-fulfilling cycle whereby his wealth and illusions of wealth and his celebrity within the febrile world of NY tabloids created a sense of power where little real power existed. Trump would bully his vendors and others with lawsuits and threats, and because he was "Donald Trump" he got away with it more often than not.
All of that is unraveling in slow motion.
