Which art of the Scottsboro case were Trumps lawyer’s analogizing to Trump’s current case? For two cases to have relevant analogous elements it is not necessary for the two cases to be completely analogous.

No, it doesn’t fucking matter if you “intend” to murder a cop or just “accidentally” murder a cop. She tried to attack him with a deadly weapon - a car. Anyone who isn’t a complete blithering idiot - so, anyone who isn’t among the approved Jezebel commentariat - recognizes that attacking a cop is a damned good way to…
