Conservative Judge J Michael Luttig's sadness over what's coming is palpable

Here's an extended (45-minute) interview with former federal judge J Michael Luttig, who used to be revered by conservatives for his commitment to conservative values. Now, of course, he's written off as a RINO and an enemy of the MAGA movement. Why? Because he's horrified by what he is seeing and has spoken out about it.

He's obviously shaken by what has happened to his party. There are several poignant moments in this interview, but one that struck me was when he said:

"This is a tragic day for America...The trial will be an embarrassing spectacle to the United States of America. Not only is it the first trial of an American President for grave offenses against the United States, but that man will be on trial during a presidential campaign in which he himself is again campaigning for the presidency of the United States. Never again will the world be inspired by American democracy in the way that it has been since our founding almost 250 years ago."

He also points out that our Constitution simply did not, and could not, foresee a movement that wanted to bring down the very institutions that support it. That has been my concern since this began -- we are not equipped to deal with something our Founders didn't see coming.




Mac, everyone. Posts about bringing shame to Republicans--NEVER Democrats. But of course, a fair player, right down the middle

Oh no! He got the secret Maga decoder ring and figured out that "peaceful" means "insurrection"!

Cartoons you have but a defense for Dear Leader? You struck out swinging on 3 pitches. Have a seat on the end of the bench.
:nono:

I shotgunned you right in the balls for 3rd base, and you're out the game. :slap:

I'll walk home when the next guy bunts.

That's actually happened.
