Satirist Alexandra Petri lends her mighty pen to the cause of defending the convicted felon and defeating the evil Rule of Law in this fundraising letter (excerpt):
Subject: Donald Trump, Political Prisoner
Dear Fellow American,
THE RULE OF LAW IS OUT OF CONTROL AND MUST BE STOPPED!
Have you heard the news? A so-called JURY OF HIS PEERS (absurd! the man is peerless!) dared to pass judgment on Donald J. Trump as though he were an ORDINARY CITIZEN, SUBJECT TO LAWS, and not the GOD-KING OF AMERICA THAT HE WAS AND SHALL BE!
The corrupt, wicked courthouse even had “EQUAL AND EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL MEN OF WHATEVER STATE OR PERSUASION” carved on the outside! AS THOUGH IT APPLIED TO DONALD J. TRUMP!
IF THIS IS THE WAY WE ARE GOING TO TREAT DONALD TRUMP, WE DON’T DESERVE TO BE A DEMOCRACY! PLEASE DONATE NOW SO THIS CAN STOP!
Juries, acting as if they had the right to pass judgment! Judges, judging! Laws, binding!
WE CAN’T HAVE THAT! WE CAN’T — AND WITH YOUR HELP, WE WON’T!...
Of course, the real fundraising appeals to vacuum money out of the pockets of low- wattage MAGAt suckers and into Trump's legal defense aren't much different than this in tone or level of derangement. Nor are the un-American attacks on the justice system by Republican MAGAt cult officials, who are vowing "revenge" for having their cult leader being held accountable by 12 jurors acting unanimously after hearing the facts and testimony in his hush money/ cover up trial. "Speaker" of the House MAGA Mike Johnson, Sen. "Lil Marco" Rubio, Sen. "Cancun Ted" Cruz, et al. -- the termites eating away at our democracy along with the convicted felon.
