Former GOP Georgia Lt. Governor Slices Up Trump With Brutal 'Ax Murderer' Comparison

Mod: That is certainly a cutting remark.

Former GOP Official Slices Trump With Brutal 'Ax Murderer' Comparison (Yahoo! Newslink):  Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) urged his party to ditch Donald Trump before it’s too late. “As a Republican, the dashboard is going off with lights and bells and whistles telling us all the warning things that we need to know,” Duncan― who testified to the grand jury in Georgia that indicted Trump and 18 others in the state’s election interference case ― said on CNN on Monday night.

He called Trump a “fake Republican” who racked up $8 trillion in debt in the White House and 91 indictments in four separate cases after leaving.

Duncan said Republicans have all the evidence they need to not make him the party’s 2024 nominee “including that fact that he’s got the moral compass more like an ax murderer than a president.”

But he warned that time is running out.

“We need to do something right here, right now,” he said. “This is either our pivot point, or our last gasp as Republicans.”

'Stunningly stupid': Legal expert flattens Trump lawyers over comparison to racist case (Raw Storylink): Retired California Supreme Court Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell, during an appearance on CNN’s “The Source with Kaitlan Collins,” suggested that the comparison may not serve the interests of their client. 

Cordell was responding to a question from the host over Judge Tanya Chutkan’s decision to set a March 4, 2024, date for the start of Trump’s trial. 

“It's absolutely fair,"Cordell explained. "Judge Chutkan deliberated, heard everyone on both sides, and set a date that I think is a reasonable date. It may change, but for now, I think it's reasonable. But I’ll tell you Kaitlan, the moment in that hearing that struck me, I only have two words to describe it as ‘stunningly stupid.' And that was when Trump's attorney compared their desire to delay the case to what happened in the case of Powell v Alabama, a 1931 case involving the Scottsboro boys who were convicted of raping two white women and the case went to the U.S. Supreme Court and their convictions were reversed." 

In that case, the boys were forced to go to trial with little preparation. Trump demanded two years. 

“What the Trump team did was say that, ‘well, what happened in that trial is what could happen here in this trial,’ which is absolutely absurd," she continued. 

"In the Scottsboro case the Scottsboro boys were indicted, and were on trial six days later, not even given the opportunity to choose their attorneys. In this case, there was an indictment, but …the trial date is seven months out. He has experienced lawyers, a whole team of investigators. And it was stunningly stupid because, one, the comparison is ridiculous, but second, if you want to alienate a judge in a case, this was exactly what to do."

Mod: Thanks to Agent Orange the GOP is a fully controlled Russian asset.
