Trump is a BINO (Billionaire In Name Only), taken from RINO (Republican In Name Only) which Trumpers disparagingly call moderate Republicans.

Polling with other candidates included. Robert F Kennedy Jnr could have a big impact.

No matter what I think of Trump, I struggle with the entwinement of politics in the US legal system.

Yes. I find it strange too. The share price of his media company keeps going down (this was predicted). He still might struggle to find the rest of the money if he's made to pay.

Hillary Clinton telling people to get over themselves is not going to appeal. I think it's perfectly rational to be worried about Biden's capacity to be President, and telling people off is not going to win them over.

Isn't that mirroring her 'cultism' for the sake of a line?

Trump says Arizona 'ban' on abortions goes too far. Not sure how this will play with his voters.

Let's face it, there is not going to be an impartial jury in a Trump trial.

It would be an impossible task I would have thought. In another context (Angela Rayner) I was reflecting on how everyone falls into one of two camps so easily. Dumbed-down thinking in a dumbed-down world.

I like the idea of the jury system but this is surely its biggest flaw.

And one that in the politicised US justice system becomes even more ridiculous.

'Sixty of 96 potential jurors were quick to say they could not be impartial after proceedings began on Monday.' So 36 liars then?
