Ex-Prosecutor: Trump's Latest Move A 'Sign Of Desperation' As Probes Intensify
It's about donnie's recent assertion that, since Special Prosecutor Jack Smith's wife has been active in the Democratic Party, Mr. Smith is invalidated in his prosecutorial role.
From the referenced HufPost post comes this observation from ex-prosecutor, Glenn Kirschner:
"He explained: “So Trump alleges that if the prosecutor’s spouse is a Democrat, well then the prosecutor cannot go after ... corrupt or criminal Republican politicians because of the prosecutor’s spouse’s politics. That’s absurd.”
“And think about the corollary,” he continued. “Well, if the prosecutor’s spouse is a Democrat, then the prosecutor shouldn’t be allowed to go after Democrats either, because presumably, because of the prosecutor spouse’s politics, the prosecutor would go easy on Democrats.
“So if you take Trump’s argument to its logical conclusion, if a prosecutor’s spouse is political in any way ... the prosecutor cannot prosecute anybody who’s a Republican or a Democrat.”
That causes me to conjure a corollary to this corollary:
The ancient, sacred and revered legal process of trial by jury ceases to be possible: no unbiased jurors can be found.
So we can add that to donnie's accomplishments: a ham handed, ignorant, and, regrettably, partially successful attempt to dismantle Pax Americana, the giving the go-ahead to Iran to return full tilt to its nuclear weapons program, letting Kim Jong-Un make a fool of him before the international community and instigating a coup d'état.
Pretty impressive credentials, for residence on Devil's Island; I'm pretty sure the French would be happy to provide a billet.
Maybe that can be an agenda item when President Macron make his imminent state visit.
