    And you think there’s ever been a time where it wasn’t the case?

    Threaten the judge presiding a case and their family and you’ll never get an impartial ruling.

    Bring someone like Trump to court and you better make sure you take everything slow and make sure no one can question any of your decisions, not even his supporters.

      Do you honestly think he supporters care? They don’t believe in truth, nothing a lawyers says or does is goning to change their mind. All the justice system is doing is showing them violence works. If thats the justice system you want then we have fundamental differences on what justice is.

          Then ‘reality’ is settign the stage for bigger coups and more stochastic violence from fascist leaders. This mentality you seem to think is ‘reality’ is not an preventing violence, it’s just kicking it down the road to the jext judge, the next governor, the next person they target. It’s MORE dangerous to do what we’re doing now. You’re very nonchallant for someone to whom reality means violence gets you what you want.

            Welcome to the real world? Go read a couple of history books and you’ll soon realize that there’s nothing special about what’s going on at the moment.

              Welp then instead of doing anything proactive, should any of that violence you don’t care about makes it’s way to you, I hope reading your book gives you great comfort in knowing that it was nothing special. The difference between history and the present is we can still change the prsent. You sound like you couldn’t change a lightbulb with that perspective on things though. Good luck.

                    How about you come up with an actual answer?

                    You complain that it’s not ok and I agree, I just state the obvious, that’s how society works and you tell me I’m doing nothing to change it and I’m asking you, what do YOU suggest people like you and I should do to make it so Trump faces consequences for the way he’s acting in front of the judge?
