@dansaltzstein dunno if it’s the most, but a few years back i made a truly tight street parking; the degree of difficulty rose even higher bc motorcycles were on each end of the spot. As i got out of the car I saw the doorman across the street giving me a long respectful slow clap.

@AndreaR9Md during a regular transition, biden reps would’ve moved into offices while tfg officials were still there. thus biden folks would witness last-minute behavior by tfg-ers, including any crimes - shredding docs or stealing of files, etc. therefore, delay access as long as possible.

Question on MSNBC just now on why Trump hasn’t attacked Pecker. My guess is that from Trump’s vantage point, Pecker has a lot of power, bc he can create stories (including negative and even fake ones) about HIM! So he has power/leverage; not in Trump’s interest to antagonize him.

@AG_Conservative @Grandpaahab @AOC The amendment applied to Truman because he was president at the time of its passage. But there is no doubt that the idea of the two-term limit came up as early as the late 1930s, when FDR was prepping to run for a tradition-busting 3rd term in 1940. Ocaaio-Cortez is correct.
