The bigger the business, the weaker their political backbone against Trump. There is a Supreme Court case against tariffs that would favor them but big businesses have instead decided to let small businesses take the blowback by not joining them. They are scared of getting one of Trump's bad tweets.

O'DONNELL: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?

TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough.

To be fair, the FBI has been in the business of faking terrorist plots by entrapping naive kids who have no means or intention of doing anything since 9/11. It gets them headlines. This sounds likely to be one of those.

Weird.

It's almost like her current boyfriend, the director of the FBI who flies her around the nation on government jets, might have shared information that would normally be limited to trusted law enforcement circles.

But that can't be right, because that would probably be a *crime*
