Models really blew this morning's rain event across my area. Most of them had little, if any rain here. Instead, I got several hours of solid rain that added up to 0.64". Some locations just se/east of me and up through Dubuque got 0.80-1.00+".

I think all of this has been out off until after the elction....which it D**n well should be. Even a lot of Trump's critics think it's flat out embarrassing they decided to use such a pathetic case to try to bring down Trump. The charges he's been convicted of are a big yawn for most people.

Turley is an attorney and registered Democrat. Interesting legal points. Legal analyst Jonathan Turley noted, "I obviously disagree with this verdict as do many others. I believe that the case will be reversed eventually either in the state or federal systems. However, this was the worst expectation for a trial in Manhattan. I am saddened by the result more for the New York legal system than the former president. I had hoped that the jurors might redeem the integrity of a system that has been used for political purposes."

I think you are right to some extent. A lot of people are very sympathetic to Trump right now, so he should tone it down. FWIW Bill Mahre thinks it's highly likely Trump will win. Love him or hate him, Bill Mahre has proven himself to be much more open minded than many who are left of center.
