And still we analyze each stupid action while he's off committing another crime to be buried in his own sh*t.

(144,919 posts)3. Trump's offensive against Jack Smith takes an incoherent turn
My law school did not cover the concept of personally attacking the family members of a prosecutor as a viable legal strategy. According to my kids, I took the bar exam back when they used stone tablets or blue books. I doubt that this strategy is a good idea in the real world

But as last week progressed, Trumps specific interest in Smith grew. On Thanksgiving, for example, the former president didnt deliver holiday well-wishes to Americans, but he did use his social media platform to condemn the special counsel as a Radical Left Prosecutor, who is totally controlled by Eric Holder and Obama.
Referring to the two threads of the Justice Departments ongoing criminal investigations, the Republican added that he did nothing wrong on Jan 6th (Peacefully & Patrioticly), or with Documents (Check out past presidents).
In reality, none of this made any sense though I do appreciate the irony of Trump struggling to spell patriotically but it didnt stop him from adding a day later that Trump Hater Jack Smith ... should never be allowed to work on anything having to do with me because of his and his familys anger, hatred, and bias......
Yesterday, the former president even raised concerns about the special counsels name:
.....But stepping back, his tirades seem to reflect something more important than his routine lying: Trump seems scared. The former president is scrambling in the hopes of trying to discredit a highly respected career prosecutor, and he apparently believes hysterical online tantrums will do the trick.

Jack Smith (nice, soft name, isnt it?), is a political hit man, who is totally compromised, and shouldnt be allowed anywhere near our already highly WEAPONIZED & CORRUPT Justice Department and FBI, which are stuffed with, and listening to, Radical Left MONSTERS, who will cause difficulties for our Country the likes of which we have not seen before. By the way, OBAMA SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN (and got caught!), & what about the MASSIVE Joe & Hunter BIDEN CORRUPTION (Evidence already in!)?

TFG is clearly scared and acting out. I wonder how TFG's attorneys feel about this strategy. Maybe the law shools that TFG's attorneys attended covered this tactic
