That must feel real bad If you are aware of it. I guess some lawyers somehow truly believe that the best outcome for their clients is the fairest. Always. Otherwise, that job would make you feel evil.

From memory:
You said I would go down in history as the worst president in the history of the US. At least I'll go down in history as a President

wrote last edited by [email protected]In my eyes, the healthiest way to look at it is to view the full court as a team that pushes in different directions, in a combined effort to create the fairest outcome. Although there are many situations where believing that becomes much harder, especially when wealthy or influential clients are involved.

You could say he's still right, since 47 will go down as a tyrant or dictator.
Also, this isn't that speech. This is the one where Obama made the small penis joke.

Well, he got elected. Twice. Second time by popular majority in addition to the usual US election circus method.

Yeah I was kinda kidding there. That Obama quote was from the before times, when everyone was sure no one was dumb enough to vote for Trump as president.
The small dick one was during the 2024 campaign

Law school can be eye-opening. Con law in particular was an interesting one. If you can make it through Marbury v Madison in your first semester of your first year and not realize that the entire American system is held together with chewing gum and baling wire and it's a miracle it ever enabled a functional government at all, or get through Dred Scott v Sandford or Plessy v. Ferguson later on and not realize that the law should always seek justice in as far as said chewing gum and baling wire even halfway plausibly permit, then you're either an idiot or an asshole, and probably both.
Slavish devotion to your generation's "plain reading" of increasingly distant legalese written by -- to put it euphemistically -- deeply conflicted men who were indeed clever and motivated, but were also the half-educated elites of a cultural backwater, is how you end up with our current mess.
