Hanging With Chad

The Democrats dispatched Marc Elias to oversee the Florida recount. The same guy the Hillary campaign hired to dispute Trump’s 2016 election win. And that gave us Fusion GPS and the dubious Steele Dossier.
Chad
Now he’s hoping to trigger a hand recount in Florida. And that’s something the WSJ says could become “hanging chads, the sequel.”
Citizen Trump

President Trump says he’ll end birthright citizenship. That’s the deal where immigrants give birth after entering the country illegally. The baby is a U.S. citizen according to the 14th amendment to the constitution. At least that’s what the WSJ it says means in an editorial “Rewriting the 14th Amendment.”
But according to Trump that’s not what it means. It’s kind of complicated. If you have three hours or so you can hear what Robert Bork had to say it about in 1987.
Anyway, the president says he can end birthright citizenship with an executive order. Bad idea, says Rich Lowry, that’s the kind of thing Obama used to do.
Horseface

President Trump was having a good day. So good the Democrats overplayed their hand on incivility. Plus a judge threw out Stormy Daniels’ defamation suit against him. And ordered her to pay his legal fees!
But then he stepped in it and called her Horseface.
Mob Psychology

Trump denounces Democrats as an “angry mob.”
But Democrats insist they’re not a mob.
And Hillary says they’ll stop being a mob when they get back in power.
Roughing The Justice

Daniel Henninger says half the Senate Judiciary Committee created a new legal standard – “I believe Christine.”
This new standard for court nominees (and surely others in and outside politics) would be that judgment can be rendered in the absence of substantive argument or any legal standard relating to corroboration, cross-examination or presumption of innocence.
And Andrew McCarthy claims, “The real objective was not to destroy Kavanaugh but to convey what Democrats have in store for any conservative who seeks high public office.”
But you don’t have to be a conservative running for high office. Here’s a woman accusing a little boy of sexually assaulting her when he walked by with his mom.
The little boy was crying and couldn’t say if he was conservative or liberal.
