Just listening to Jay Sekulow on CNN ...

... I wouldn't trust this ignorant asshole to defend me on a parking violation charge.

I've been a court reporter for 32 years, and I've seen everything from the best lawyers to the worst.

Sekulow is one of the worst. He's a classic example of an incompetent attorney trying to dazzle with bullshit because the facts are obviously too overwhelming to counter - along with the fact that he can't BE BOTHERED to craft a viable defence based on a legally-sound foundation.

He's the kind of lawyer that judges almost invariably ask if they have something of substance to add to the proceedings, as opposed to continuing to waste the court's time.

Among other things, he's a crook and a grifter who runs a "Christian" organization from which he has skimmed millions. He looks like a slick bastard who's totally in over his head because he doesn't have a clue about federal criminal procedure. Anybody who represents Trump had better be very familiar with that topic.

They talk about these other supposed crime committed by Clinton. If these are serious, why aren't they being investigated by the Republican congress. Take the Seth Rich thing, the Republicans in congress never even talk about it.

... Vinny comes as a team with Lisa Vito - who'd take one look at this case and declare: "Oh, my God! What a fuckin' disastah!"

I had never heard of him, but the fact Hannity had him on told me all I needed to know.
