WEEK 408 / 408 — The Arrest
TUESDAY. THE ISLAND SEALS ITS STREETS BETWEEN THE TOWER AND THE COURTHOUSE.
“THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS HAVE CRIMINALIZED THE JUSTICE SYSTEM. THIS IS NOT WHAT AMERICA WAS SUPPOSED TO BE!”
THE MOTORCADE ROLLS SOUTH THROUGH HIS OWN CITY.
Heading to Lower Manhattan, the Courthouse. Seems so SURREAL — WOW, they are going to ARREST ME. Can’t believe this is happening in America. MAGA!
THIRTY-FOUR COUNTS ARE READ INTO THE RECORD. HE ANSWERS WITH TWO WORDS: “NOT GUILTY.”
AND THE STATE TAKES NO PHOTOGRAPH.
As much as I can enjoy a day like Tuesday, where the Radical Left Lunatics, Maniacs, and Perverts had me Indicted and ARRESTED for no reason whatsoever, there was no Crime,…
“HAPPY EASTER TO ALL, INCLUDING THOSE THAT DREAM ENDLESSLY OF DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY BECAUSE THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF DREAMING ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE,…”
NO PHOTOGRAPH WAS TAKEN. NEW YORK BLINKED AT THE PORTRAIT — THE CHRONICLE IS STILL OWED AN IMAGE.
AND IN WASHINGTON, ANOTHER PROSECUTOR IS STILL READING ABOUT THE BOXES.
TO BE CONTINUED…
This week in the saga
Tuesday morning the tower, the island sealing its streets below — the justice system, he roars, has been criminalized. Then the motorcade south, and from the back seat the strange hush: seems so surreal — wow, they are going to arrest me. In the fluorescent courtroom thirty-four counts are read; he answers with two words, and the state takes no photograph. By Wednesday the arrest is a triumph — ten million dollars raised, his best polls ever, perhaps the best day in history. And on Easter Sunday he stands in the spring light and greets his enemies at the top of his voice: remember, we will be back.
