00:00I want to show one of your sketches today.

00:01We're going through some of them, but this one,

00:03it appears in this one that his eyes are closed.

00:08What was happening here?

00:11My apologies, ma'am.

00:13I was sitting 50 feet away.

00:14I was having such a struggle to try and get those eyeballs in.

00:20Dammit, woman!

00:23Does Donald Trump have eyeballs or no, man?

00:25Does he or no?

00:27You are in the room!

00:29Tell me, or I will not come to your trinket shop in New Paltz.

00:36Leaning to the left, a little bit quiet.

00:39His arms crossed as well.

00:40Hunched over with his elbows on the desk.

00:42Looked through papers and periodically

00:44whispered to his attorneys.

00:46Fidgeted and leaned back the scowl fixed to his face

00:49while he sat squinting.

00:50He was actually biting his lip during today's proceedings.

00:53His lips pursed in that characteristic Trump way.

01:00His eyeballs, gone.

01:05The hulking former president stood up slowly.

01:07He walked towards me with a mixture of desire, scorn,

01:10and let's call it age-related confusion.

01:15It was then that I realized that this former president

01:18of the United States has a front butt.

01:20Look, at some point in this trial,

01:30something important and revelatory is going to happen.

01:34But none of us are going to notice

01:35because the hours spent on his speculative facial tics,

01:39if the media tries to make us feel like the most mundane

01:42s**t is earth shattering, we won't believe you

01:45when it's really interesting.

01:48It's your classic boy-who-cried-wolf blitzer.
