The coup-attempting former president asked for a trial delay until after the 2024 election — which, if he wins, would let him end the federal prosecutions he faces.

    I really wish we lived in boring times.

    It is so fascinating how Trump seemed to never want to win in 2016, yet somehow was the least incompetent Republican candidate. Then his life devolved from there, as if each bad decision just kept having more children until he was so overwhelmed he was a victim to his own personal sunken cost fallacy.

    So here we are. A clear criminal whose only chance to remain free is to become the leader of the largest economy and military on earth.

    Boring times seem so comforting now.
