Part 1
Having sat thru yesterday's opening Peach Mint 2 arguments (ok, mostly didn't watch but did listen - I did catch much of the Dem "muh feelz" video), and pondered on what I saw and heard, I have a take on the situation that I'll just drop right here.
We all understand that the Dem position is based on a lie. There is ample evidence that the "insurrection" was a pre-staged, choreographed performance of a false flag designed to smear MAGA and position DJT for yet another harrassment move by the DS. I am intentionally not addressing whether Q team is ultimately maneuvering the orchestration of the cabal's idiot activities so that they march to their own demise. In context, I have 20+ years trial and appellate experience in a few different states as well as Fed courts.
From a trial standpoint, the Dems approach everything with a plaintiff's lawyer and stage-actor mindset, which means that they will have already focus-grouped their "evidence", a bunch of out-of-context cuts from DJT speeches and a chop-logic, high production value video of the staged riot that leaves them looking as good as they can. We're all aware that their narrative has already been seriously undercut by AOC's retarded commentary (she barely survived the sniper fire along with Hillbags, ya know) along with a lot of contradictory facts that have already been solidly established. The Dem managers went with "muh feelz" from the outset because they literally have nowhere else to go with their story. They surely didn't help themselves, either, with their weepfest during presentation. Did they connect? Only with their hardcore base and some outlier independents who've been fed nothing but MSM shit. The last time the public was introduced to their lies on national TV (Peach Mint 1), DJT's popularity ultimately increased. Keep that in mind.
Which leads me to the analysis of Trump's two-attorney opening yesterday. On the surface, these guys appear more "lightweight" than the slick production barfed up by the House managers. Production values and a few weeks to practice can work miracles for opening statements. However, let me explain to you why I believe you're seeing a brilliant longhaul strategy.
Let's deal with the 2nd Trump attorney first. He was extremely articulate from a legal standpoint, arguing at frankly the appellate level. While many viewers or listeners could follow his overall points, he did come across more textbook-ish than I would personally prefer in an opening statement. That said, he did drop several nukes on the entire House show, and (I know you know these already) they were:
1) Constitution doesn't permit Congress to impeach someone not in office. The proper thing to do is arrest and criminal trial. This is BIG.
2) The circus is rigged (a judge is a member of the jury?) and not even allowed under the law (since when does a Legislature act as a court against a private citizen). Meaningful but not necessarily something private citizens are going to really worry about unless they're smart enough to realize it could happen to them, too.
3) This whole thing is a hoax. That's really going to be the knife in the Dems' guts, because he's got the goods to prove it.
No, I am not forgetting the 1st Amendment free speech argument. It's absolutely correct, but it's of such nuance that the only way it will resonate with anyone on the other side is to show that his speech was no worse than the Dems (which he did preview).
The only real question with regard to Mr. Schoen is whether he can "dumb down" his presentation to play well on TV. His presentation was quite "pitbull", but scholarly. I suspect he absolutely can keep that fire while switching into a more plain-spoken mode. We'll see.
Part 2
Which leads me to DJT's first lawyer, Mr. Castor. Castor has taken a LOT of heat for his apparently rambling, off-the-cuff opening which spent a great deal of time puffing up the Patriotic value of the Senate, and only closing with a few quick points that frankly were the open-up to much of the same ultimate points made by Mr. Schoen. The talking heads and snooze writers have of course spewed their drivel panning his performance.
However comma Mr. Castor's folksy, plain-spoken and courteous manner are exactly the counter-balance - assuming he hits all his marks - to be the only reasoned guy left in the room once Mr. Schoen presents the hoax evidence and tears away the shroud of feelz wrapping around the shitburger the Dem managers are offering up. Ordinary people don't trust a drama queen once they're shown to be bullshitting. Mr. Castor is like the quiet, pretty smart guy you respect in the small-town midwestern coffee shop on Saturday morning. The men and women will gather, talk, harp on problems and issues and he sits, takes it all in…and when he offers up his viewpoints and cuts to the chase (in the kindest way possible), people say to themselves, "Yeah, he's right. I need to listen to this guy."
Top it all off, he gave us a bit of a Mr. Smith Goes To Washington moment, reminding regular Americans of what the hell we expect out of our representatives. Of course, nobody really believes in that anymore because they're (almost) all proving to be just a bunch of greedy, selfish criminals able to avoid punishment because they get to make the rules and dish out the money.
That doesn't change the fact that how he spoke about them is exactly what Americans expect and deserve.
Mr. Castor, in my estimation, is likely to sneak up on everyone in the Senate chamber and be the only guy anyone wants to listen to before this thing is done. And by the way, personally attacking the nicest guy in the coffee shop is the quickest way to piss off the whole town.
Think about that.

▶ What the FUCK they did between 2 - 4 pm?? /pol/Anonymous#307489232
1. Late on election night, with Trump comfortably ahead, many swing states stopped counting ballots. In most cases, observers were removed from the counting facilities. Counting generally continued without the observers
2. Statistically abnormal vote counts were the new normal when counting resumed. They were unusually large in size (hundreds of thousands) and had an unusually high (90 percent and above) Biden-to-Trump ratio
3. Late arriving ballots were counted. In Pennsylvania, 23,000 absentee ballots have impossible postal return dates and another 86,000 have such extraordinary return dates they raise serious questions
4. The failure to match signatures on mail-in ballots. The destruction of mail in ballot envelopes, which must contain signatures
5. Historically low absentee ballot rejection rates despite the massive expansion of mail voting. Such is Biden’s narrow margin that, as political analyst Robert Barnes observes, ‘If the states simply imposed the same absentee ballot rejection rate as recent cycles, then Trump wins the election’
6. Missing votes. In Delaware County, Pennsylvania, 50,000 votes held on 47 USB cards are missing
7. Non-resident voters. Matt Braynard’s Voter Integrity Project estimates that 20,312 people who no longer met residency requirements cast ballots in Georgia. Biden’s margin is 12,670 votes
8. Serious ‘chain of custody’ breakdowns. Invalid residential addresses. Record numbers of dead people voting. Ballots in pristine condition without creases, that is, they had not been mailed in envelopes as required by law
9. Statistical anomalies. In Georgia, Biden overtook Trump with 89 percent of the votes counted. For the next 53 batches of votes counted, Biden led Trump by the same exact 50.05 to 49.95 percent margin in every single batch. It is particularly perplexing that all statistical anomalies and tabulation abnormalities were in Biden’s favor. Clearly something peculiar happened.
#CapitolRiot Capitol Police Union Statement: “By January 4th, the Department knew that the January 6th event would not be like any of the previous protests held in 2020” + “the systemic failures of this Department cannot be addressed without new leadership”
& then there's the death of US Capitol Police Officer Sicknick: why are the Feds hiding the medical report?: ........................ (meanwhile, in (((them))) land)
▶ The Pfizer (NASDAQ: PFE) and Moderna (NasdaqGS: MRNA) "vaccines" are both mRNA treatments. 8kun/anon#12880510
-They function by re-programming the recipients cells at the cytoplasm level.
-Traditional vaccines contain chopped up pieces of the virus so that the recipient can get immunity without getting the disease.
-The mRNA covid vaccine contains genetic "software" that causes the recipient's cells to manufacture the antigen on their own, which (they hope?? They are not sure yet) will then cause an immune response. Cool idea. Let's find out if it works or not
-Both are unproven, and have not completed clinical trials (who needs clinical trials when you have the entire global population to test on)
-Not only are the covid vaccines unproven, the treatment itself (mRNA) is only a few years old
-Both companies are traded on wall street with hedge funds being the main shareholders
-mRNA treatments are widely tested on animals
-the source of the mRNA originates from aborted babies (but like, a long time ago so it's not unethical, they say. See ref below)
-mRNA technology is being tested on many different diseases, expect to be pushed by the media/Wall Street machine into getting more and more jabs for various ailments
So if what I'm reading is accurate, the entire human population is being asked by the wall street/media feedback loop to be genetically reprogrammed by a brand new, experimental treatment of questionable efficacy that causes serious side effects including DEATH all for a disease that has a 99.9% survival rate. What could go wrong?"
