I have been wondering this myself. How do you defend the indefensible, when you don't have the facts and you don't have the law and the Chief Justice isn't likely to let you pound the table?

Frankly, the managers should be filing motions in limine to exclude Dersh's argument.
It'd be interesting to see how the CJ would rule, frankly, and whether he'd opt to exclude a facially invalid presentation on the "law" from a witness dressed up as defense counsel while claiming he's not.

There is no leg to stand on, but that hasn't stopped the @GOP under Trump
And if the CJ so ruled, then how McConnell would try to address it, presumably with an attempt at a simple majority vote to let Dersh "present."

What a shitshow, America. For serious.
