The Media Lawyers Are Almost All Idiots
The Supreme Court’s 9-0 humiliation of the raving cadre of Twitter lawyers, MSNBC, legal analysts, and commie law professors was a welcome repudiation of these unbelievable half-wits. I don’t think you guys understand the pain I go through as a lawyer – and a competent one – listening to the nonsense these half-wits spew. You can’t believe anyone in the media (social or otherwise) except me and a few other folks, including Harmeet Dhillon, Randy Barnett, Mike Davis, Ron Coleman, and some others when it comes to political and legal issues. The fact is that these leftists, many of them ex-federal prosecutors (ugh) or law school faculty (ugh2) who haven’t been in a courtroom in 20 years (at least not as an attorney), are just utterly incompetent. They don’t understand the law, and they are blinded by their fascist left-wing ideology. Everything they say is stupid. Never listen to them.
How bad are they? They’re terrible. They actually thought that the Colorado Supreme Court’s ridiculous ballot-booting decision, which was 4-3 on an all-Democrat court, was some sort of brilliant legal analysis that totally justified their One Weird Trick approach to disqualifying their political opponent, Donald Trump. But if you read the Colorado decision, which I tried to do before throwing it across the room, it’s not a legal opinion. It’s a political jeremiad, a ridiculous list of accusations and criticisms of Donald Trump, with no discussion of or relation to the law. And that’s a problem if you like the rule of law.
But it’s not a problem if you’re trying to get the MSNBC audience all riled up and excited over the thought of getting your political opponent thrown in jail or off the ballot or bankrupted by using the law in a way that’s never been done before. And that’s what all of these lawfare ploys are. No one has ever tried to throw a president off the ballot because of an “insurrection” that has never been proven to be an insurrection in, you know, a court of law. Apparently, it’s OK to just call it an “insurrection,” and that’s enough to kick him off the ballot. Sorry, half of America, you’re disenfranchised, and if you don’t like it, do you hate the Constitution so much?
The Washington, DC, criminal case uses charges that have never been used in this way before and will probably not be allowed to be used this way again when the Supreme Court decides a related case in June. And that’s only if there’s no presidential immunity, but there is presidential immunity, and what the Supreme Court is going to do is send this back to the lower courts to have the lower courts determine what actions of Donald Trump are covered by presidential immunity. The pinkos slobbering at the thought of a DC conviction before the election will be more disappointed than their spouses were on their wedding nights.
The documents case in Florida is an utter joke for a number of reasons, including the fact that Donald Trump had a right to declassify anything he wanted to declassify. There’s also another problem – selective prosecution. The Department of Justice refused to prosecute Biden for the same things Trump allegedly did (except Biden could not declassify anything) because he is too senile and stupid to be held responsible for his crimes. But make no mistake, the report found that Biden committed crimes. So Biden is not getting charged, but Trump is, and that’s supposed to be OK. But that’s not OK. And it’s not going to be held to be OK. That case is going to go away, too.
And then there’s this idiotic New York City criminal case. Once again, it features laws never used and never applied this way against anybody else being used to convict Trump. We also saw that with the NY civil case brought by an attorney general who ran for office promising to find something to sue Trump for. The ridiculous judge, the one who looks like a refugee from the cast of The Walking Dead, was attempting to bankrupt Trump using civil statutes that have never been used this way before. That’s going to go away, too. The criminal case is going to go away because this ridiculous case has no legal merit, but it will continue for a while because the liberal judge and the liberal jury pool will keep it alive at the trial court level until it is inevitably killed off at the appellate level. They hope a conviction, however legally meritless, will tarnish Trump, but people see through the lies.
The same thing is true in Georgia, where you have the aptly-named Fani Willis, who is a crook, making up charges against Donald Trump. Again, none of these charges have ever been used against anybody before this way, and while the case might slip through the left-wing jury pool, it’s going to get killed on appeal, too.
And the legal morons will be shocked and angry. See, the problem for the nitwits on Twitter who assure you that these are brilliant legal theories and absolutely ironclad prosecutions and persecutions is that they are either idiots or think you are an idiot. Here’s the thing – as we saw it with the 9-0 ruling, the Supreme Court cares about its reputation. It might not like Trump, but it’s not willing to utterly destroy its credibility by going along with this left-wing nonsense. That’s why it threw out this Colorado case. Yeah, most of them, including a couple of the conservatives, would probably be happy for Trump to just go away. But they also don’t want to get a dozen new cases throwing Biden off the ballot in red states for committing “insurrection” by refusing to enforce our laws and seal the border off. After all, if an individual state can decide what an “insurrection” is, they will. The Supreme Court has no intention of being the janitors cleaning up the mess of leftist legal theorists who are trying to deprive a plurality of Americans of their ability to vote for the candidate of their choosing.
The bottom line is don’t listen to the idiots on Twitter. Mock them. Laugh at them. If you want to listen to somebody, listen to me in a few of the ones I’ve named and some others. We generally get things right because we’re actual lawyers who actually practice and aren’t living in a giant fantasy world. When we see something bad for our side, we’ll tell you. We won’t ignore it. We won’t pretend it doesn’t exist. We won’t claim that anytime we’re wrong, it’s an attack on Our Democracy. A lawyer’s job is largely telling people, “No,” No, you can’t do that. No, that idea won’t work. No, you really can’t sue over that because it’s stupid.
So, eventually, this will all get sorted out, and the left will be further humiliated. This isn’t going to stop Trump, you know. It will only help him because people see this for the scam it is. People see this as election interference and an attempt to use legal means to eliminate a political opponent. And that is as old as history. The Romans did it. They were going to prosecute Julius Caesar when he laid down his legions, Which is why he didn’t lay down his legions and instead took one across the Rubicon to march on Rome. The left ought to keep that in mind.
