MSNBC: ‘Conviction Has Gotten To Him’: Katy Tur Reports From Inside Trump Tower'

Source:MSNBC anchor Katy Tur talking about Convicted Felon Donald J. Trump at Trump Tower, in Manhattan, New York.

"Former President Donald Trump delivered post-verdict remarks riddled with lies and attacks against Michael Cohen, prosecutors, and Judge Juan Merchan. Katy Tur is at Trump Tower with the latest." 

From MSNBC

I think Katy Tur gives and excellent description and story about how she saw Donald Trump today. And it reminds me of let's say a top rank boxer, the world heavyweight champion, who was not just the heavyweight champion, but maybe had the championship for 5 years, is undefeated, never even been knocked down. But then there's that one title defense where he doesn't meet his match, but where he's overmatched and just gets knocked down, flattened, beaten up. And his whole career and life is never the same after that. 

We'll know in about a week what the American voters, especially Independents and center-right Republicans, who really don't want to vote Donald Trump again, but might do it anyway, but we'll see how these voters think of Donald Trump now being a 34 time convicted felon and how they feel about him next Friday. 

But this reminds me of (for you pro boxing fans) of Mike Tyson, who Donald Trump knows somewhat, who he hosted at his casino in Atlantic City back in the 1980s for several of his fights, this reminds me of Tyson losing to James Buster Douglas in 1990. 

Douglas destroys Tyson and knocks him out in February, 1990. Mike Tyson a year later is charged with raping a woman at an Indiana fashion show and convicted of rape in 1992. He goes from being Iron Mike Tyson and World Heavyweight Champion, to basically just another heavyweight contender, from the time he loses his championship in 1990, to being convicted of rape in 1992, to serving 3 years in prison after that. His whole life really falls apart after losing to Buster Douglas in 1990. And never gets back to anywhere near where he was in the late 1980s, when he was on top of the boxing world and looking unbeatable. 

In a span of 9 years from 2015 to today, Donald J. Trump has gone from being the self-proclaimed King of Reality TV, (if not the actual King of Reality TV) to the King of Political Reality TV, to President of the United States, as well as King of Political Reality TV, to the first incumbent President to lose reelection since George H.W. Bush in 1992 and the only second incumbent President since Jimmy Carter in 1980, to lose reelection, to a 4-time indicted criminal defendant, to now a 34-time convicted felon, in his home city, home bureau, hone state, in Manhattan, New York. And DJT is still the Republican nominee for President of the United States. 

We'll see if DJT just completely loses it and becomes like a Mike Tyson of American politics and American voters completely reject him overwhelmingly. Or, will he get it together be the Donald J. Trump that everyone hates or loves and becomes the favorite to win the 2024 presidential election. And we'll have a much better idea a week from now how running as a 34-time convicted felon, affects is presidential campaign.
