shows just how guilty he is. Although I guess it's possible they would sanitize it further, but everyone has seen the version they put out there.

will be endlessly analyzed. His little show will bring the whole "transcript" into the public ear. More important, it'll bring heightened scrutiny to the reality that the "transcript" is only a "memorandum," and not a verbatim account. This can only harm him.

The point, then, is that should the Dotard read this on national TV, he will further compromise himself.

I'm all in favor. I say go for it, Babyfingers. It'll be comedy gold.

Just straight up pronounce his guilt.

so of course the king of dumbass ideas will do it!

Don’t for one minute think he will actually read the transcript. It will be his “interpretation”.

And there is no way I will watch it to give him ratings. I think between now and then he will backtrack on this decision. When they record him as a rehearsal and he bombs.

Maybe he will; maybe he won't.

No way his aids let this happen. Not only reinforcing his quilt but demonstrating he is functionally illiterate.

...dot..dot..dot

He usually uses, "....".

And Stephen Colbert says every one of them when he reads a Twitler tweet.

And are there any long words in the transcript?

And there could be a table with a little Christmas tree and cookies, and a choo-choo, and bust of Abraham Lincoln!

TBH I think it's just another "look over here" stunt.
He knows he's in deep doo-doo.

Up is down and down is up. Yes is no and no is yes.
