This speech was just so much awful that you just can't count the ways. It included calls for the lawyers who prosecuted him (calling some of them out by name) to be imprisoned, labeling news networks that are unfriendly to him as "corrupt" and "illegal", and several minutes of praise for his favorite judge Aileen Cannon, which included a blatant attack on free speech saying that simply criticizing her and other judges he likes basically should be illegal and that people should go to jail for it. Ignoring the hypocrisy of course of how many times he's attacked specific judges himself. Sad thing is, most of this was really nothing all that new or anything he hasn't said in one way or another before at his rallies. It's where he was spewing all this crap from that was most notable.

It's just a constant pushing of the line of people's perception of what can be considered tolerable behavior. Every day. Every day just a little bit further. That's how he does it. He makes the people around him accept one indignity after another, till the ones supporting him are willing to look the other way at just about anything. It took a little while, but we're pretty much at that point already now.

Every accusation he makes is a confession
