I've been listening to the sycophants [View all]
rant in front of the courthouse. I'm tired of hearing them sounding exactly like Trump. Nothing new. Just a chance to be seen.
In particular, they have been repeating the familiar Trump comment, "Corrupt judge!" I just want everyone to remember that Judge Merchan ran this past the ethics committee, who found nothing wrong. From the NY Times:
When Mr. Trump tried last year to have Justice Merchan kicked off the case, Justice Merchan rejected it then as well, citing a state advisory committee on judicial ethics that determined that his impartiality could not reasonably be questioned based on his daughters interests.
So, even though the average listener might not realize that the issue has already been vetted, there's nothing going on there. Even though they are using an old trick of repeating over and over the same lie until it is thought to be the truth, they are wasting their time. J. Merchan stands on firm ground, and there's nothing they can do about it. I'm just sick of hearing this, that's all.
