You don't have to be a lawyer to recognize a bunch of crap when you see it.

I think this whole effort was a “I’m still here” attempt.

“Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg hits back”

Do we know if she is in control of her body functions much less able to “hit” anything?

I thought impeachment was not a legal process, but a political one.

She may have rebuked him, but I’ll guarantee, she didn’t “shut down” President Trump.

The President is not required to be a lawyer. Nor is a Senator. Nor is a Supreme Court justice.

The fool of a judge may have to recuse herself.

Keep it up....

Here is what our Lord Jesus had to say about lawyers:

Funny, I can't find any references to businessmen.

'The president is not a lawyer'

Ginsburg is not an originalist "justice".

Trump understands the principles found in the Constitution whilst you, RBG, don't.
