After many in this case were also involved as we're finding out in the trial. trump lawyers, Senators and House republicans that didn't declare they wee involved and refused to recuse themselves from it all. Was Justice Roberts called by trump trying to corrupt his trial? I'd bet on it.

The assumption is Trump voters have a conscience and are capable of rational thought. At this point they are a criminal cult beyond redemption. Evidence and fact mean nothing to Trump supporters. Our only hope is to motivate those who did not vote.
