25. Honestly, we shouldn't have to vet it

your post should be accurate (or labelled). I'm not upset, just saying, speaking as a writer, you learn not to put it on your audience.

I got that the text said he was threatening to send the guard and the title was sensational, as titles often are, but it still seems plausible to me that he would say some of those things. Or that he will in the next stage of his dementia. Except for the guard to SCOTUS part, I think he's already said most of the other things in the post.

I kind of got my hopes up. Oh how great it would be if he actually threatened the courts that way.
