Short Take Politics
Ex-President sleeps in court
The old man, riddled with dementia and perhaps addled by syphillis, fell asleep in court during his fraud trial. https://www.mediaite.com/politics/trump-glared-at-maggie-haberman-for-several-seconds-after-she-reported-he-fell-asleep-in-court/
Polls show Biden rising
President Biden, in the most recent poll, Reuters/Ipsos now shows the President winning reelection by 4% with a 3 point margin of error. Given how frequently the polls seem to be off in recent elections, right now it looks like Biden by 8%. What a dismal failure for my Republican Party. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-polls-biden-2024-trial-1890367
Protesters wane
Outside the courtroom, protesters were outnumbered by media. Perhaps fatigue is setting in. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/15/trump-trial-supporters-maga-ne…
