Trump Team Backs Away From Lin Wood After Pence Tweets

Lin Wood’s prediction that Vice President Mike Pence could “face execution by firing squad” for “treason” is prompting Trumpworld to once again try and distance itself from the Atlanta attorney. Jenna Ellis, an attorney for the Trump campaign, declared in a tweet late Friday: “I do not support the statements from Attorney Lin Wood. I support the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution.” Wood blasted Pence after his attorneys challenged a lawsuit from Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert, which sought to force the vice president to block the counting of electoral votes for Joe Biden when Congress meets to ratify the election.

Separately, Nicholas Sandmann, the former Covington Catholic High School student who Wood represented in defamation suits against media outlets stemming from coverage of a confrontation at the Lincoln Memorial, linked to Wood’s Pence tweet with the comment, “I’m sorry but what the hell.”

Stunned by judicial dereliction in the form of failure to even hear well-substantiated election fraud claims, Lin Wood’s idealism about the law seems have led him into an alternate reality based on absurd ideas.

Now that the political genius Nicholas Sandmann has chimed in, we can all stand down.

I'll file him under Great Thornberg and other children's opinions I don't listen to.

Now we have Lin Wood going off the rails. When it comes to the election and its aftermath, Trump just can’t catch a break.

It seems as if Lin Wood has some mental issues.

“Off the rails”....We will see...Everythimg he says seems to eventually come put true. He just gets too far ahead of pblic thought and proof even for People like us who know tve crap gling on. Is it hard to believe Mcconell and Pence (Paul Ryan BFF) is a deep state. When you find out Pence gets big multi million dollar job on corporate board for Netfix or some other commie company then you will see he was right. BTW Pence wrote the Anonymous at NYTimes. Not the low level Patsie.

We are dealing with evil, and evil often does not have its own physical body.

All it takes is an opening and evil moves into a person. You see their personality change and they make statements that are inconsistent with who they really are.

Often it is pride that creates the opening.

In his twitter feed today, Lion Wood is talking about Isaac Kappy :

“On 5/13/19, Actor Isaac Kappy died after he “forced himself off” a bridge in Arizona. He was 42.

His last post on Instagram was “Beware the man that has nothing to lose, for he has nothing to protect.”

Isaac knew the lies. I know the key to his treasure trove of TRUTH.”

Pray for this man, because this is starting to look like a really unhappy ending.

What ever has happened to Lin Wood and his sanity is very puzzling.

He is/was an extremely smart lawyer, but his latest tweets indicate some kind of mental strain.

SAD.

All these people seem to be going ‘off the rails.’

Is it Trump? Stress? The democrat deep state threats? Dare I say it...drugs?

The Republic is at stake! Maybe it is the hand of God removing the hedge of protection?

I have even been thinking Free Republic sounds more like a conspiracy site than the logical conservative thinking site I joined a over a decade ago.

My nephew who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, and some operations in Yemen says it is the ‘fog.’ You’re not supposed to understand what’s happening on any level. “Just do your best to stay out of the way.”

Lin's apparently crazy behavior is puzzling.

Given the fact that this country is in the midst of a coup and Lin is (or was) one of the key players on one side, either he has snapped under the strain (and/or started drinking to excess) or his behavior is intentional (i.e., like a distraction, smokescreen, or feint).

Too many of you are so quick to judge Wood and throw him under the bus!

I will not!

We ARE in a fog of war!
Be very vigilant......and don’t give in to hysterics, hyperbole or fear!

As long as Trump, Flynn, Rudy, and Powell aren’t screaming at him to shut-up I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt to see what he’s up to. I don’t think he’s lost his mind. I think (right now) he knows exactly what he is doing. If that’s the case I hope he lets the rest of us in on it soon. People don’t usually flip from sane to crazy overnight. I’m having a hard time figuring out the Pence thing.

That's about where I am right now, looking back and forth between Pence and Wood and backing away slowly.

Because my perceptions say Pence is the normal one. But I have been wrong before, and if he's buddies with Ryan, and Pompeo is cutting him out of pictures... I don't know.

Right.

Given the seriousness of the situation right now re: the election, I would caution anyone to refrain from jumping to conclusions.

Trump often uses chaos and the "crazy man" strategy to great effect. As we know, the President is a long time user of The Art of War:

“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
One might add, when sane (i.e., having the logical or rational advantage), appear to be crazy.

Lin certainly might have slipped under the pressure, but he is accustomed to being under great stress due to the nature of his legal practice. It is quite likely that he is behaving strategically.

I support the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution too, Jenna @JennaEllisEsq.

I was fighting for both 7 years before you were born.

I fight for TRUTH too. Truth always prevails. You do support that statement, don’t you, Jenna?
