Chip Bok for April 13, 2018

I don’t see him being overthrown. I see the rule of law in action. That’s probably what is confusing you.

He was duly SELECTED by a gerrymandered map and an outdated electoral system. He lost the vote. I vote for hanging him right on the White House lawn.

Well, no. That’s not what’s happening.

“Duly Elected”? The jury hasn’t even heard a word of testimony .

Bok appears to be terribly confused … He must think we’re living in a ‘Banana Republic!’

When lawyers engage in criminal behavior they lose their privilege.

Lawyers are supposed to uphold the law, not fix it for billionaires.

You present this as though the two are mutually exclusive. They are not, Chippy.

“We’re overthrowing a duly elected president because he’s a threat to democracy….”

Overthrowing is not what’s happening, nor is Cohen “a duly elected president”. That raid is going after Cohen, not Trump.

The scary thing is that today we could actually consider that the above statement might not be self-contradictory.

We are overthrowing a president because he wasn’t duly elected – he was colluding with Russians to attack Clinton.

We are following the rule of law by going through the courts and through an investigation officially authorized by the Deputy Attorney General of the United States to try to determine whether a foreign power influenced the 2016 federal election. Instead of welcoming an investigation that would show that his campaign was innocent of the suspicions about their collusion, the President, while claiming his innocence, is busy casting aspersions on the investigation and the people involved (Republicans who head the FBI and the Department of Justice, and a judge appointed by him).
