An 81 year old passenger in a Bronco on the other side of a divided interstate from where police cars are on the scene for a domestic dispute has his driver stop the car in the middle of a lane so he can cross over the divider because he thinks the cops need his help? Nobel Prize for lying material.

There is no chance Trump knew any of this. He just doesn't pay attention to anything close enough to anything figure this out. He doesn't know rules about deployment of NG. It doesn't matter as he has surrounded himself with such evil people that there are dozens of possibilities as to who did this.

That may be the eventual outcome here if the feds refile. Trouble with that is even as a misdemeanor the sandwich thrower could end up in jail for a year depending on charges, not get something reasonable like a $200 fine.

A Grand Jury in DC refuse to indict the hoagie throwing citizen. You can expect the administration to drop the charges down from a felony to a misdemeanor where they don't need a jury inictment to prosecute. Yes, they are that petty and vindictive and if convicted he can get up to a year in jail.

A couple days ago it was "Trump's firing", so adding "attempted" is an improvement, I hope that by tomorrow it's improved even more and they insert the word "illegal" after attempted. Why is it so hard for any media to use the correct words?

Bone spurs never go away without surgery. The inflamation and pain may subside but the spur remains for life. It is clearly visible in an x-ray (because it is bone). Trump could put this all to bed by releasing an old or new x-ray. Maybe Maxwell has seen one? I'm sure she will verify she saw it.
