1. Hey everyone.

The person anonymously leaking racist attacks on the Mueller grand jury sounds a lot like Trump

2. Here is the quote at issue:

“The grand jury room looks like a Bernie Sanders rally,” my source said. “Maybe they found these jurors in central casting, or at a Black Lives Matter rally in Berkeley [Calif.]”

3. The phrase "central casting" is a Trump signature. He uses it constantly.

MSNBC wrote about that last February. His fondness for the phrase has been noted multiple times in the NYT goo.gl/uAfRjE
4. Here's a little video of Trump using "central casting" over and over again goo.gl/uAfRjE
5. The person who the anonymous source leaked to, the NY Post's Richard Johnson, is a personal friend of Trump.

He was a judge for Trump when Trump ran the Miss America pageant goo.gl/uAfRjE
6. Page Six is a weird place to leak details of the grand jury composition. But it is also a place that Trump has been obsessed with for decades goo.gl/uAfRjE
7. That said, there is no definitive proof that Trump is the source. But it is either Trump, someone who mimics his speech patterns after spending a lot of time with him or someone trying to make it seem like it was Trump goo.gl/uAfRjE
