    Remember that Onion headline “man would die fighting to defend what he imagines the Constitution to be”?

    Many modern conservatives are like that. They will bleat all day about laws, and yet have never spent 2 minutes even reading a Wikipedia page about them.

    They’ll believe whatever pundits tell them to believe.

    Witch hunt? Unconstitutional? Politically motivated? Kangaroo court?

    Not for one minute will any of those law and order loving, institution-protecting, facts not feelings, crowd consider that Trump is there because of real actual crimes he really did commit.

      Criminal trials are different tho. Especially when news agencies are doing nightly breakdowns of how bad this really is. Fox can only cover up so much…

      I’ve said it before, religion primes people to believe stupid shit, as long as it’s delivered with conviction.

      Talking snake? No problem! Waking on water? You betchya! Kangaroo court? Don’t mind if I do!
