    Applying the law but wanting it to change is what is called “rule of law” and democracy. Not understanding it is a part of what makes it so easy to slide into fascism.

    “Nuance” my ass. Expecting a DA to follow its conviction instead of the law is the opposite of what you want.

      That’s what I was getting at. Frankly, I wouldn’t want a DA or any cop-adjacent to run the country. Better her than the Orange Turd, but I’m splitting hairs here.

      Anyone should have been a shoe-in against him. But they weren’t. She wasn’t. It wasn’t a single factor. We will scream until we’re blue in the face, pun intended, but in the end, the Dems fucked this.

      The candidate they ran was not better than Trump at connecting with the populace. As a result, we got a false populist.

        A female DA against a rapist who should be in jail. I don’t know in what universe it wasnt a good match.
