Jeffrey Toobin being very annoying on CNN

[madaboutharry]

Having a disagreement with Daniel Goldman. Toobin opining that prosecutors shouldn't bring a case against Trump for trying to overturn the election. Goldman a little aghast. They do agree that Trump could be charged with inciting violence and putting people in danger.

Goldman "Trump lived like a mob boss" his entire life.

1. Toobin is too late,

Fanni Willis has already begun the process.

[Hortensis]

2. Toobin's doing what CNN brings him on for. And the coup-plotters maneuvering

to overthrow our government continues.

3. Teh TOOB relates to getting away Scotfree with big stuff.

7. THIS. Embarrassing Elephant in the Room. (Nt)

4. Toobin's brain is not so much adjacent to his neck...

and having been caught "activating" it, he's now just angered and clueless. IMHO.

5. I actually think the opposite

The sedition part is much more important than the riot part.

Looking at the responsibility for the riot alone really undersells what he was guilty of. More importantly, it really undersells the damage done to democracy.

But in truth, they are all part of the same big picture. Encouraging the riot was just step 200 of his 1000 point plan. So he should be held accountable for the riot as just one of the dozens of points listed in the sedition charging document.

20. I agree, but what they will probably, finally get him with will be the massive

wire fraud he perpetrated by collecting money to 'stop the steal' after he KNEW he lost. The House January 6 group presented the evidence of that for all to see.

He's lived like a mob boss, and they only way they'll get him is on something like this.

6. The Slobfather literally told his minions at the WILD Jan 6 rally that

he is the country and the Constitution. He told the idiots that WE will remain president (😀😀 ), Mob boss doesn’t quite describe him. He’s a mob boss on steroids.
Slobby: “I will remain president even if I wipe out Congress and have my own VP killed. The latter is a wimp and a pussy for denying me my second term”.
And yet the disgraced fucker still had to vacate the White House. And Obama won twice.
That still makes me laugh.
Fuck the fucking loser and throw him in prison.

10. Aye

[jaxexpat]

18. Him in prison is a step on the path to healing the country..

Just as the hearings are a step in the path to his demise. We should be cautiously optimistic at this point. The rock is being nudged. The Po is dry. Las Vegas is unsustainable. Things are drifting toward resolution/revolution. Distopia is no longer a fantasy. All is well.

[PatrickforB]

21. I like your style. Yeah, fuck him, throw him in prison and THROW AWAY THE KEY!

He was a cancer on the NYC real estate industry, he was a cancer in the White House, and he is a traitorous canker sore on this country.

8. I watched in amazement

[Comfortably_Numb]

9. I just can't watch toobin w/out recalling when he got "tubin". He was a "jerk off"

before that though.

[Probatim]

19. I came for this post.

How is it that this guy is taken seriously let alone allowed any where near a camera?

[rso]

11. Toobin

Toobin the eternal contrarian.

[Alice Kramden]

12. That wanker

How anyone could take him seriously is beyond me

[PatrickforB]

23. LOL, yep! The guy went out for a wank, whoops! Walk. And CNN hired him! n/t

13. I lost respect for Toobin and CNN over the Patty Hearst documentary which Toobin produced.

Toobin came down hard on Patty Hearst. In my opinion, there are two sides to that saga.

Also, why did CNN order and heavily promote that documentary in the first place? The kidnapping of Ms. Hearst and her involvement with her SLA kidnappers, which had occurred over forty years prior and constituted no more than a footnote in history at that point, did not warrant a documentary which focused on Ms. Hearst. CNN brazenly promoted the documentary with a snippet from the Hall and Oats song, "You're a Rich Girl, But You've Gone Too Far." I think that that Toobin, who once was decent book author about important political issues, found that he could make a lot more money with schlock journalism in his partnership with CNN.

14. Toobin making himself irrelevant.

15. I did not see CNN this morning, But even in the most liberal of counties or Districts there

Will be 20% of the people who will not vote to convict. Every jury will have at least two MAGAs on the panel. Therefore every jury will be unlikely to get a conviction.

[IronLionZion]

16. CNN should find someone who isn't such a wanker

and doesn't feel inspired to whip it out during webcam meetings

[PatrickforB]

24. OK, I can't resist!

[Rebl2]

17. Cannot stand him

[spanone]

22. CNN also has this headline on their website....

Hearings struggle to hold Trump accountable for January 6

25. How does that dick wagger have a job?
