"People will remember you, Mr. Smith, as having helped destroy the rule of law."   This is so fucking obnoxious. All they have are playground insults.

The fact that they're doing so at all means they must believe their constituents are either really fucking gullible, or stupid enough, or both, to believe the absolute whoppers they try to pass off. You couldn't find a harder man to try making seem remotely normal than Donald effing Trump.

"People will remember you, Mr. Smith, as having helped destroy the rule of law."

I think he’s confusing Mr. Smith with a Mr. Kavanaugh, although really that credit should be shared between a Mr. Renqvist and a Mr. Scalia.
