You’re preaching to the choir, son.

You can put lawyer in quotes all you want, I still have a JD and a law license.

I think it’s also just his experience in the world. Millions of dollars from daddy, a plum real estate business (that he promptly ran into the ground), and the false hint of business acumen brought on by screwing everyone over and declaring bankruptcy multiple times. He couldn’t possibly be a more illustrative…

You just kind of hope that, at some point, these Senators who are nominally Republican just say “fuck it” and devote their remaining time in office to fucking with Trump and the GOP. The worst that can happen is that they don’t get re-elected, which is not the end of the world.

“During my wait, an attorney called Ruszczyk the “most innocent” police shooting victim he’s ever seen. Robert Bennett—the lawyer who made these comments—is either blatantly lying or he is the stupidest white man in the long, storied history of stupid white men.”

One of the funniest moments on that show . . .

The funniest thing about this is that Trump thinks he can change policy for the entire military by just tweeting “I hereby decree . . .” He told basically no one before he did it. He has a toddler’s view of his job.

Yep, I’m the moron here. Thanks for stopping by.

It’s best to just ignore Ivanka. She’s less than useless. The press about her hypocrisy is wasted ink. Who fucking cares? We’re all way beyond her being a “moderating influence”. That ship has sailed. Let her try to ingratiate herself into Manhattan social life post-Trump like she always has and just be a total…

Someone needs to acquaint him with the “the tip of the tie never goes below the belt” rule. I mean, let’s get the important shit out of the way right now. Never have ANYTHING in common with Trump.

Not sure what you mean. There are no degrees of innocence?

Whatever you got out of my original comment, that wasn’t what I meant. Don’t draft me into your bullshit. 

That’s a completely fair point and it’s well taken. My main point was that lawyers start defending the case the second that they are hired and that is what he’s doing here. The stuff lawyers say about their clients outside a court of law should be treated like a PR statement. There’s an element of it that is also…

I don’t disagree with the substance of the article other than the really shaky use of the victim’s lawyer’s opinion about her relative innocence as the anchor, as if he’s speaking for society at large. He’s her advocate and should be expected to say those types of things as part of his advocacy. All attorneys do…

Fake news! and it was the Democrats’ fault. Where have you been for the last 6 months? They know exactly what they’re doing. There’s a whole new political blueprint.

Preach! That’s about as succinctly as the phenomenon can be articulated.

I think speculating that any potential nominee would have trouble getting through the Senate gives the Republican Senators way too much credit. Sessions was one of the most compromised and unqualified attorney general nominees possibly in history and the GOP Senate confirmed him. They simply don’t care. Get to 50…

Once Meuller has the tax returns or Trump thinks he’s close to getting them, Trump will have a complete meltdown. I personally think whatever is in the tax returns will bring the whole thing crashing down by answering a lot of questions about Russia.

Pretending is fun!

So the Secretary of State losing security clearance would’ve been NDB? Got it. Not sure what all the fuss was about when you put it that way.
