Update: Newt just called this the most corrupt political system in American history.

He should consider meeting a black person.
Very curious about this.I’m not moving far from my view given what local practitioners have told me, but I do want to acknowledge the merit of their position given their research into similarity situated convicted defendants.

I think it really depends on how the appellate courts can be expected to view it.Lack of remorse, negative comments about witnesses as well as violations of the gag order are all things to consider.

McConnell well knows he will be long retired in Kentucky (or, more likely, some exclusive resort in Wyoming) before there’s any possibility of that happening. Aside from the fact that outcome is about as likely as the hung jury Trump spectacularly didn’t get.There it is. They’re riding it out to the bitter end. They know it won’t end well, but they’ve gone past the point of no return for the salvation of their souls. pic.twitter.com/pYWgX5cUXt

Nobody cares. Or thinks you know your ass from a hole in the ground.🕳️Cruz: What we saw today was an absolute travesty of justice. This was not law. This was not criminal justice. I am furious and heartbroken pic.twitter.com/BI0hWlcB2f

And...?Collins: Trump was saying there were witnesses that could’ve been called… Why didn’t the defense call any of them?

Outside of movies, people who “play dumb”…aren’t playing.Is he really that dumb or is he playing dumb for the camera? Why would the prosecution call a witness who wouldn’t help them prove their case? https://t.co/Y6KXti4XPf

And with a functioning political party, the system would have kept this from happening (the main difference between Nixon then and Trump now).Watters: You got a convicted felon now who is in the middle of an election. That’s not the right system! pic.twitter.com/ct8jvbd8lv

Be fair. Did you expect him to go on TeeVee and admit to malpractice? The better question is: what the fuck is he doing on TeeVee, with the sentencing hearing in just six weeks? I’m beginning to think this wasn’t all because Trump was running his own case.34 guilty counts and Trump’s attorney says he wouldn’t have done a single thing different. Is he a Democrat? https://t.co/LQPo90CsSr

I knew lawyers like that in civil practice. They were assholes. I had a friend who had worked for a criminal lawyer. She said she always knew when he’d lost. He’d come back from court and, when asked how it went, declared “Justice prevailed!” I worked for a lawyer who won a major product liability case which left the plaintiff a quadriplegic. I congratulated him on the win, but he said the plaintiff had rejected a settlement offer and now was left with nothing. He didn’t want to be congratulated for that. I worked for lawyers who were decent human beings, as well as good lawyers.It’s common to see criminal defense lawyers whose clients were just convicted say their client didn’t get a fair trial.

Trump lived in Manhattan. The crime was committed in Manhattan. The charges were, therefore, brought in Manhattan. Were they expecting the trial to be held in Cannon’s court? (Doesn’t really matter. The trial had to be where it was, and the verdict will stand long after Trump runs out of money and lawyers.)Leavitt: They brought it here in Manhattan, a Democrat jurisdiction that they know voted for Biden. If they can do this to President Trump, they can do it to anyone pic.twitter.com/QtFeC8Rwo9
