"As a retiree, I was able to attend each day of the Trump trial. What I saw was a master class in what a judge should be — how one can serve fairly and impartially for the prosecution and the defense, and above all remain a pillar for the rule of law in America."

Convicted felon Trump's minions are screaming to anyone who will listen that his Manhattan trial was rigged.

They're 100% full of 💩.

"Hunter Biden, and his family, will allow this to play out as the law demands. They may be disappointed by the results, but they won't blame the outcome on a corrupt system.

Because this is America, and there is still one party that respects the law."

This is how admirable adults behave; they model appropriate, respectful behavior, in stark contrast with TFG/felon and his contemptible MAGA GOP supporters.

There is a law and order party, and it's definitely not the GOP

"Flying the flag, upside down, at your home is more than a hint of political impropriety — it irrefutably calls into question impartiality and bias toward the former president. It is a tangible demonstration of support for those who continue to assert that the election was stolen from him. It is the chosen insignia of those who tried to hijack the election by attacking the Capitol on Jan. 6 and gut the very constitutional democracy that established the Supreme Court."

They're not "flip-flopping" or "softening" their positions, they're lying their asses off because they know that in even red states voters strongly support .

Voters strongly support access to abortion, contraception, and IVF.

And voters are not going to vote for forced-birth candidates.

Every one of those Republicans are forced-birth candidates so they will lie their asses off.

It is now clear that the Republican Party, a Party where only MAGA Republicans are allowed to belong, no longer believes in the Bill of Rights, in the concept of America as a nation based upon the rule of law, not upon the rule of any one person.

This being made clear by Republican officials, elected and otherwise, each of us now must decide which side we are on.

Are we on the side of the Bill of Rights, the rule of law, or the side of the destruction of America as a functioning democracy?

It's a pretty small minority of them, but there is undoubtedly some risk tied to visible expressions of aligning with President Biden, especially in MAGA GOP dominated areas.

And yes it's very sad, in some instances quite scary.

"The conviction comes at a critical moment in the campaign...

Trump’s entire persona is built around the facade that he is a powerful strongman, impervious to attacks and solely capable of defending his followers. Now he stands for election as a convict, a weak man too cowardly to take the stand who was bested by a local district attorney."

No Democrat convicted for 34 serious felonies would stand for election as dog catcher, much less president.

They can think whatever they want, they're not who we need to remind how terrible Trump, a convicted felon, was and how much worse he would be, while Joe Biden has done many great things for working families and will do more.

Knowing yet another scandal would hurt his electoral prospects, Trump committed crimes to cover up his sexual encounter with an adult film star. This set the pattern of criminality that defined his presidency.

We must hold Trump and his MAGA conspirators accountable.

A good piece Ben. Appreciate your perspective and insights having been in the courtroom (or overflow room) for the entirety of the trial.

In the end, the guilty verdicts will matter in fall if we each individually commit to making it matter and meet those commitments.

"No matter the outcome in any of his trials, Trump isn’t going to be stopped by a prosecutor, a judge, or a jury. Even if he were convicted of every count against him, he remains a threat to our nation and our system of government. Much as it would be nice to wake up tomorrow and find the threat of Trump lifted without any effort from the rest of us, that’s not going to happen. ...

He needs to be soundly defeated at the ballot box.

The most important vote in 2024 isn’t happening in a jury room—it’s happening wherever Americans turn out to vote. The outcome of this trial only makes it more important to vote in this election, and to do everything you can to get others to turn out and vote for President Joe Biden."

This is our task, to do everything we can to get others to turn out and vote for President Joe Biden.
