   I feel like I need to say that Trump had a rally in the Bronx after all. He even found some black people to stand with him. It seems like he's making friends at the courthouse ... people he can commiserate with about how mean those prosecutors are. The guys he was with are notorious criminals. Gang leaders responsible for shootings.

   They are not well liked at all.

   But I can see how Trump would find them ... relatable. They are his peers in so many ways.

     Meanwhile he's never accepted that the "Central Park Five" were exonerated in 2002 for an 1989 crime

     When people say that much of the crime in inner cities is enabled by the police ignoring the real gang leaders ... mostly arresting hapless unconnected teens for BS, while the ones who make money and run operations go free... we get call paranoid. But here is a former president collaborating with just such people. And no doubt these gang leaders will be empowered to be even more destructive in NYC should he win.

     (when at the moment they *were* on their way to prison)

     Bill repeated this.
