While studying American civics in school, I don't recall "sex worker identifying former President's wang in court" as a standard expectation.

"For completeness": Slate (in 1998): The Distinguished Gentleman:

Whatever happened to President Clinton’s “distinguishing characteristics”? In a public legal filing in 1994, Paula Jones claimed familiarity with “distinguishing characteristics” of the president’s genitals, putatively proving he’d dropped his trousers in front of her. . . .

The judge in the Jones case barred her, until the trial, from elaborating on what exactly distinguished the president’s genitals from others in her experience. But the Jones’ case never reached trial. The president’s lawyer had this to say: “[In] terms of size, shape, direction, whatever the devious mind wants to concoct, the president is a normal man… There are no blemishes, there are no moles, there are no growths.” The Washington Post says Clinton has a doctor’s report that contradicts Jones’s account.

But wait! Couldn’t Monica Lewinsky have some expertise in this issue of state? Of course she could, it’s just that she’d rather not talk about it. During one of her many Q&A sessions with prosecutors preceeding her grand jury appearances, Lewinsky said she didn’t care to describe the president’s sex organs. She did, however, care to register disagreement with Paula Jones’s description. Since Jones’s vague description boils down to “not-normal,” Lewinsky’s is probably “normal” or at least “close to normal.”

I guess I need to send my high school diploma back. To be fair, we generally did not wish to think of the Reagan Willy.

FYI, Erin Burnett/CNN OutFront just said at start of her hour she was going to have Trump's attorney this hour. I am ASSUMING that's the one who has been making the rounds, but we'll see. Might be fun, I'll never forget how she handled oh, what's the name of the Trump guy who made all the shows on one day with his crazy talk back in the early tfg days. She was the only one who said to his face she smelled alcohol on his breath.

Ah, memories!

Oh yes. Also on MSNBC earlier today.

“We start with breaking news.. that local, state, federal law enforcement and security agencies are preparing for the possibility that Trump could be indicted in Manhattan as early as next week. This is according to five senior officials familiar with the preparations..”

I wish Georgia had been first, but I'm good.

None of the prosecutors want to be first and incur the death threats that will follow. It's a game of chicken going on.

There's a big chunk of Trump supporters who have no idea this is a real possibility. They don't even watch foxnews and possible indictment hasn't pierced their bubble. Very similar to before the election when they all believed he would win in a landslide.

Just a few weeks ago he was telling them the GA grand jury "exonerated" him.

THIS IS A TEST OF THE EMERGENCY INDICTMENT SYSTEM. IF THERE HAD BEEN AN ACTUAL INDICTMENT, THIS TWEET WOULD HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED BY A TWEET ABOUT AN INDICTMENT.

US: Donald Trump says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday
Former President Donald Trump posted on his Truth Social media platform that he was expecting to be arrested on Tuesday. He called for supporters to protest.

https://www.dw.com/en/us-donald-trump-s ... l-1573-rdf

Trump didn't provide details as to why he believed he would be arrested, saying only that there had been "illegal leaks" from the Manhattan district attorney's office.

"Illegal leaks from a corrupt and highly political Manhattan district attorney's office ... indicate that, with no crime being able to be proven ... the far and away leading Republican candidate and former President of the United States of America, will be arrested on Tuesday of next week," Trump wrote in block capital letters on his Truth Social media platform.

"Protest, take our nation back!" demanded Trump.

The lengthy post described the investigation as "debunked" and the district attorney's office as "highly political" and said the district attorney's office's leader "is funded by George Soros," a reference to the Jewish billionaire and philanthropist who's often a lightning rod for the far-right.
