A big test this morning concerning trumps hush money payments. The federal judge in charge of the case has ordered for the details of the hush money payments be made public by 11:00 am eastern this morning. So in about an hour and a half we will either see the details or trump will have defied the court. I suppose he could get some kind of stay somehow through another legal channel but I don't know if it is there for him to utilize. So for me it is either post the details or defy the judge. Knowing how trump operates it would surprise me if he complies with the judicial order.
He sees himself as above the law for not only himself but for those who operate around him. It is like he has an immunity that he has created in his mind that extends to all his activities. Well our democracy gives no such right to any public figure regardless of position. So I believe we are going to have a stand off with trump not releasing the details of his hush money payments. Yet I have also seen trump back down when the courts have interpreted against him so maybe this will be one of those times but I expect not.
If he does release the details of his hush money payments then I expect the rest of his appointed presidency will tip steeply downhill. Like a crack that breaks open the other court cases against him, it will wedge the disclosure gap even further open. What trump doesn't want is for us to see behind the curtain of his dealings that would effectively show he is truly nothing but a con man getting away with crimes his whole life. For him to expect to be appointed another presidency would be delirious and although we see him as being out of touch it would be beyond the scope of the imaginable for him to understand that his days are done.
