The Adventures of The Special Master

I think we know how the Pope feels about him, though:

Oh, they heard. The problem is they didn’t listen.

Or they listened and didn’t care.

Or they just want his lies to be true and therefore they must be true to them.

It’s just one anecdote, but I recently saw a reporter ask a MAGAt woman about the “stolen election,” and she said that trump had evidence but the courts wouldn’t look at it.

I’m figuring if most of them listen to only Fox or worse, they’ll barely even know about this classified document scandal or will believe it’s merely a records storage dispute as they are told.

Also, my parents are unfortunately trumpies and the message they are getting is that Obama threw all his presidential records into an abandoned furniture store. So meh, Democrats are just making a big deal about trump’s treatment of presidential records when Obama and even Bush II did the same thing.

Here’s a small excerpt from a screed a FOAF posted on Facebook. It was a real pressured speech, run on of paragraphs with no punctuation.

, not a shred of evidence against trump only a stolen election treasonous supreme court justices who refuse to see evidence ,

You should reply, ‘You’re right. Except for all the mountains (plural) of evidence against your MESSiah, the complete absence of evidence of a stolen election, and Trump’s Own Supreme Court Justices who don’t like Treason.’

My bold.

B-b-b-but I thought the Supremes were trumpie’s pals? :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Only if they were white and he could grab them by the p~.

If I am not mistaken, Trump’s lawyers have never alleged ‘stolen election’ in court.

I specifically remember that in Pennsylvania, a Judge asked if they were alleging fraud and they answered NO.

Am I wrong?

You’re not wrong:

Up, you cannot make this stuff.

True. Problem was, she wasn’t aiming her rhetoric at reasonable people, she was talking to Trump and his Magats.

Yep. Seriously, none of this would’ve made it into a TV show or novel. It’s just too far away from suspension of disbelief. Hey, maybe that’s what they’re going for!

Sounds like what Judge Loose Cannon called “medical records” that could be leaked and cause trump “irreparable injury” was just that stupid letter released by trump’s doctor in 2016 declaring trump a perfect physical specimen (LOL).

I’m starting to wonder if we got Cannon all wrong. Maybe she isn’t in the tank for Trump. Maybe she isn’t biased toward him. Maybe she just doesn’t know what she’s doing.

I don’t think it is possible to be that stupid and pass the bar.

However, IANAL.

There was that old BBC show “Rumpole of the Bailey” where he asked, what do you call a lawyer with an IQ of 85?

Me Lud.

Or your honor, I guess.

Sometimes, I wonder very similar things about Ben Carson or Dr Oz - though in their cases, they apparently were actually pretty good at the surgery part even if they are Dunning-Kruger Overdrive personified otherwise.

There’s an old joke that goes “what do you call the person who graduates dead last from law school?”

A lawyer

Also works for medical school or any other specialty school.

I spent more than a year doing technical support for a medical software company. We provided software to clinics all over the US, and some in other parts of the world. In many cases I worked directly with doctors, especially in smaller clinics, as they were often the primary users of the software, and sometimes even were responsible for setting up the computer equipment and network.

It ran the full range, from people that seemed like they’d struggle to tie their shoes, to foks who were so sharp they’d pick up on what you were doing right away and even collaborated with the troubleshooting itself (helping me out directly in the process).

A person can be a really good doctor and bad at other things, or even anything else. I’m sure everyone has known the person who is a genius in one particular field and yet can barely take care of themselves.

True. But the really dumb ones don’t cut you open with sharp instruments and mess with your insides. Mostly.
