    That’s what happens when you pick your cronies based on their looks and sycophantic tendencies, instead of experience and knowledge.

      She was the only one stupid enough to actually try and go for it. All the other prosecutors they asked refused, I think some even resigned. She’s a different kind of stupid I guess.

        She’s a different kind of stupid I guess.

        She’s going to get a dozen book deals from conservative publishers. She’ll land a talking head spot on FOX News. She’ll hook up with Steven Mnuchin’s cousin or get Baron Trump’s baby in her or just marries a party mega-donor. Maybe she runs for AG in Virginia in 2029 and rides in on a Republican reactionary wave after President Pete Buttigieg shits the bed. If nothing else, they’ll be posting jerk-off material of her on Grok for the next twenty years. I’m sure there’s a way to monetize that.

        If you think that’s stupid, you’re thinking she’s playing a different game. Her card is punched.

        Their version of career skills progression is: “I’ve been faking it and making it. Based on what I’ve learned, I’m going to fake it even harder, to increase my making it.”

        The others were real lawyers, and didn’t want to risk their law licenses. But she’s not a real lawyer, with a mind-boggling case of Dunning-Kruger, so she was too stupid to know that most judges don’t decide cases based on which side has a lawyer that might let them fuck her if they let her win, even though they know she won’t.

      Well I mean in this case, her lack of competency and credentials were a per-requisite. No one with skills in law would have even considered attempting these cases.
