We are literally six years into watching legal developments related to Trump repeatedly slow things down to a crawl or outright stop.
Every single time, pundits insist the new development won’t delay things.
Every single time, they have been wrong.
Every time. Every. One.

I’m going to add one thing and then I’m done talking about it.
Legal analysts’ reflexive, adamant insistence that [new thing] won’t cause a delay is so contrafactual, it borders on group psychosis.
I truly can’t understand *why* they die on this same hill every time.

I have thought about it a lot because I don’t think they’re lying and know they aren’t naive.
It is weird AF.
Like EVERYONE KNOWS HOW SLOW THIS SHIT MOVES WITHOUT ADDING CHANGES AND LEFT TURNS AND NEW STEPS.

Like, anyone who has been even tangentially involved with any court case of any kind knows case timelines regularly get longer. They never get shorter.
The insistence that HUGE CASES are somehow immune to HOW THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WORKS is so delusional, it is near psychosis.

And I don’t understand it.
It is absurdly, agonizingly irrational and it is absurdly, agonizingly served up as wisdom.
No matter how many times they’re proven wrong, they learn nothing from it.
It’s like a weird religion where The Rule of Law is the imaginary god.

Find me a cable legal analyst who can say out loud what everyone in this fucking country knows:
The wheels of Justice move too slow and every new development slows them down further.
That is so effing basic, it’s insanity to believe otherwise.

AND WE ARE STILL WAITING TO SEE TRUMP TURN OVER THOSE TAX RETURNS PUNDITS INSISTED HE’D BE DELIVERING WITHIN WEEKS - AND THAT WAS LITERALLY OVER TWO YEARS AGO.
It was “a huge win for the rule of law”.
I and others took endless shit for disagreeing.
We were right. Still are.

At this point, just being honest, I have greatly diminished respect for experts who are incapable of believing, accepting, and admitting objective realities about our justice system no matter how many times they see them firsthand.
You cannot be irrational *and* credible.

Okay, I’m done.
And now I’m going to scrupulously avoid reading posts about this topic because they’re going to make me want to break a window.
If the system worked the way pundits insist it does; we wouldn’t be in 2022 with an unindicted Trump.
