Donald Trump whines constantly about not being able to campaign around the country because he's stuck in a New York courtroom facing trial on felony charges. Since court is only convened three or four days a week and Trump has his own plane, he could certainly be out on the campaign trail every week if he chose to. He held a couple of rallies last week in Wisconsin and Michigan, but on his days off he's usually playing golf at and angrily tweeting rather than glad-handing the MAGA crowd out on the stump. And, of course, he's holding a lot of fundraising events down at Mar-a-Lago.
This past weekend, rather than heading out to Arizona or even next door to Pennsylvania, Trump was back in Florida regaling 400 wealthy donors at a $40,000-a-ticket event with extended complaints about his legal problems and the stolen election of 2020, among other MAGA greatest hits. He also compared the Biden administration to the Gestapo and called special counsel Jack Smith a "f***ng a**hole." In other words, he was clearly enjoying himself.
