You have the right to sn sttorney if you can't afford an attorney, we'll provide you with the dumbest ******* lawyer on earth.
The public defenders you know are probably a far different breed than the PDs I know.
One of the absolute *best* attorneys I have ever met is a PD. And has been a PD for 20 years or so, My Friend.
Anecdotal
PDs are a crap shoot
Absolutely anecdotal. And fully agree with your last sentence.
But the anecdote is an absolute refutation of sheres comment about them.

TRUMP SHOT
If there was a second shooter at the Trump rally was it Routh or the other guy?

RE: TRUMP SHOT
This should be very telling https://www.foxnews.com/politics/top-sen...n-attempts on how the Biden/Harris admin continues to stonewall an investigation.
They should be investigated for potential involvement in the assassination attempts, including Black Rock, as someone stated. If the above article is accurate, it tells me a vast coverup is taking place. Guilt by stonewalling.

Throwback retrograde Communist swine all of them. It's always about party over country to them, and winning at all costs, no matter who gets hurt or killed. They fail at everything else though, but it's by design.

As for your first two points -- do you realize the parties are their own groups, with their own rules? Literally, if they agreed, they could select a candidate based on a round of Rock Scissor Paper. yet somehow a private groups own rules on selecting their candidate is some massive affront to democracy? Lolz.
On to other items ---
One side tried to get the Vice President to throw away electoral votes.
One side tried to have the Vice President count slates of electoral votes for them that had the legal weight of pulling them out of a box of Capn Crunch.
There is more. Shall I continue?

Your side has tried to kill Trump twice now. You all don't have a lot of room to talk at the moment.

Ok - and what exactly are those rules? Are these rules written down somewhere? How have they historically chosen candidates?

And which side constantly points their finger at the other calling them a threat to democracy. Which side compares the other candidate to Hitler, calls him evil, and a wannabe dictator. There is a lot of hatred being drummed up by the left and it's no wonder there have been two attempts to assassinate Trump.

Maybe try the organizations themselves. Or just whine about them as you do above.
https://www.rnc.org/
Wash rinse and repeat for the Democrats.
Are you *not* aware the Republican Party and the Democratic Party are private groups? With rules on how they operate? And how they nominate a candidate?
Holy moses, I am kind of gobsmacked by the questions above.
Quote:How have they historically chosen candidates?
They have historically chosen candidates under their own internal rules. One rule being that they can vote to suspend the ongoing rules and implement new rules in changing situations.
Just like the Rules Committee of the DNC did just a few months ago.
Im still gobsmacked that there is a lack of awareness that the political parties are private entities, and can choose to operate in whatever manner they wish.

I'm sorry - where in that post did I "whine"? Also, when did I interject that they were NOT private entities? I just asked where these "rules" were documented. As for your point - yeah, I suppose they CAN operate however they wish. But the party that is constantly calling the other a "threat to democracy" certainly chose a path to nominate their candidate that didn't have an ounce of the spirit of democracy in the process.

Bummer. Maybe Trump *shouldnt* have tried to short circuit the counting of electors in '20 to benefit himself with no legal basis.
Yes, I absolutely call that a threat to democracy. Should people simply cover their heads up with a hood and not note that? Seriously?
And not even getting into the issue of throwing out a metric ton of false comments about the election, and using that to instigate a riot at the point of counting the ballots.
Maybe if he hadnt pulled *that* ****, there wouldnt be reason to call him a 'threat to democracy'. Imagine that.
