This doesn’t make any sense. He had not yet been elected when committing these particular crimes.
Some of the evidence presented was from when he was president. That’s at least the angle his lawyers are going for.
I generally don’t agree with broad statements about all lawyers being thrown into the sun because it’s important for even guilty seeming people to have fair representation… but his lawyers absolutely should be thrown into the sun.
“Yo Dawg, I heard you like bad faith arguments, so I put some bad faith arguments in your bad faith arguments.”
I mean, to play devil’s advocate, it’s their job. He’s their client, they’re supposed to work in their client’s best interest, and as long as they’re not breaking any laws to do it, they’re doing what they’re being paid to do.
I think it more comes down to the judge needing to put a stop to the bad-faith arguments; if the judge is accepting them, why wouldn’t they keep making them?
Yea, okay, we can hold off on our coronal mass injection cannon for now - but if those fucks break any laws trying to intimidate jurors or bribing officials… well, I’ll keep the cannon spun up in my garage.
I, specifically, want Trump to gain no special benefits or privileges based on him being Trump or wealthy - he’s gotten far too many gifts already.
That’s unfortunately simply not the world we live in.
So you’re saying I should wind up the cannon? Can’t a mad scientist just launch a few people into the sun without all this back and forth?! /s
Yea, I know. It fucking sucks.
Yeah, this is it. It’s the defense’s job to zealously defend to the extent of the law, the burden is necessarily on the state to prove things and carry out justice.
Which is why when your supreme court are corrupt fascist bastards and fuck all that up, there’s not a lot of options left. It would have been great to elect someone from a competent or at least not-evil party to avoid this particular situation but “we” didn’t.
ITS BULLSHIT!!!
GOD! FUCKING! DAMMIT!!
. . . Sorry had to get that out. Uh, carry on, I’m gonna go lie down . . .
