QOTD -- Coping With A Problem

 

"...[T]he Chairman's real problem is that justice remains no respecter of persons. That you can be the former president of the United States, but if you commit crimes, you'll be held responsible. That's his problem. That's the problem of all my Republican colleagues right now and that is they're about to nominate a convicted felon and they don't know how to cope with that. They don't know how to cope with the justice system that in fact treats Donald Trump the same as it would any other citizen. And so they have to push these conspiracy theories that they know are patently false.” -- Rep. Adam Schiff, (D-CA), at yesterday's House Judiciary Committee hearing with Attorney General Merrick Garland.  Schiff debunked MAGAt Republican cult claims that there's a two- tiered justice system in this country following the unanimous conviction of their future nominee on 34 felony counts by a jury of his peers, and pointed out their problem -- having to embrace a convicted felon, a career fraudster, a Putin/ Kim/ Xi - loving would- be dictator, a pathological liar, and complete buffoon and incompetent as the leader of their cult.  Then again, with the likes of Marjorie Taylor Traitor Greene, Matt "Teen Spirit" Gaetz, "Gym" Jordan, Mike "Moses" Johnson, et al. in their ranks, it's not so surprising that they're rallying around the convicted felon, is it?
