At this point, “I was a Grand Juror, and that MAGAt approached me and addressed me by name” should be sufficient to support a claim of self-defense if any of the jurors shoots a MAGAt.

I come with a glass, no, an entire _carafe_ of schadenfreude… BAD POLL NUMBERS:

> **[Majority of Americans think Trump's Ga. election interference case is...](https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/majority-americans-trumps-charges-ga-election-interference-case/story?id=102328543)**
>
> A majority (63%) of Americans say Trump's charges approved by a grand jury in Georgia are serious (47%) or somewhat serious (16%), according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll

50% thinks he should SUSPEND HIS CAMPAIGN 🤣🤣🤣

The Georgia election interference is serious. But do these people realize that insurrection is serious? It’s ridiculous.

To be fair, 50% of the population has been of this opinion since early 2016.

ETA: This was already posted in one of the Rudy threads. My bad.

Rudy, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy. He didn’t even pay _you_ as a lawyer; what on the face of god’s grey earth makes you think that he’d pay for the lawyer of a lawyer?

I may be conflating this with a Law & Order episode, but wasn’t there something in the news years ago where someone running an anti-abortion website posted names and addresses of doctors who did abortions, “suggesting” that they should be “made accountable” for their “crimes”?

He does not like caviar, but as his friend Putin gave the bucket full of the stuff to him - the BEST caviar in the world, you know - he will eat it and say he likes it. With a knife and fork.
