Trump Special Master Filing Merely A 'PR Document,' Says Fmr. Federal Judge - All In - MSNBC



“I’ve checked the legal cases that they’ve cited, and I would also give it a low grade,” says former federal judge Nancy Gertner on the legal basis of the Trump motion to appoint a special master. “It is a public relations document.” - Aired on 08/23/2022.

1. I believe a Trump Special Master should be appointed. For fairness sake.

The best candidate. A person who has been a trump special master for years. Hillary Clinton.

Who better qualified? Who would piss off the wastrels of society more then Hillary. And she would do it by finding the truth. And the last thing the party of Marjorie t. Green can handle is the truth. Channeling Colonel Nathan Jessup from a few good men.

5. The thing is, she's more than qualified and would be good at it. And likely as fair as the law allows

And of course the perk would be that it would send the deluded into conniptions!

4. The Pig is hoping to get the courts to give him something back.

If he gets it all back after some miracle then he wins. If he gets some of them back he then bitches to the cultists about being victimized and the rest of the documents were really his too.

He gets nothing back, he can play martyr, "Send me money, boo hoo, please I am being treated unfairly."

Those anarchists who are sending him money will start getting shot and die in the landscape of America. It’s already started. The well will quickly run dry. I spent 30 years in the Navy and it pains me to post this. But the good guys didn’t deal the cards.

too much to endanger them. I have always thought that if and when the Pig goes down it will be a trigger for a scary number of McVeigh types. We already saw this in Cinnci. That kind of thing is going increase as this all comes to head.

In the end I don't think they will put him in prison. He won't do a day in prison. They fine the crap out of him and maybe confine him in MAL. The one thing that will matter is that he is barred from running for office or his ability to pull votes is destroyed.

And that will open the door wider for the other whackjob dictator DeSantis.
