One of Donald Trump’s attorneys stood up in front of the Senate. What made her remarkable was so many sighs that we wanted to write her a hall pass. She would have been excused for extreme boredom.
All of the president’s men and one woman stood up and tried to make a case for exonerating POTUS. Most of them paused the rate of speaking to something that reminded us of the old 33 1/2 rpm (revolutions per minute) speed records. The flip side of that rate would have been the old 78 rpm speed of the chipmunks, Chip and Dale on speed.
A solemn tone is important, but these presentations did not carry solemnity. Instead, they reminded people of the kids in high school marching bands who could not tell time. That meant they were always a beat off. The attorneys might have been the high school first-year accounting teacher. As much as the country has been paying for the president’s defense, surely they should have served him better.
Trump tweeted again and did not invite people to watch the live trial. No, he commanded the Democrats to do so:
‘All Democrats should watch this!’

Then, the president or one of his aides typed a reminder of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day. If the message was his, it might have been one of his best.
‘On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the millions of precious souls who perished as a result of the horrific crimes perpetrated by the Nazi regime….’
Then, Trump included several additional news feeds:

Twitter world went crazy after Trump tweeted in spite of most attorneys’ wishes that their client remain silent. Take a few moments for a laugh break:
