I was hoping you'd say something like that. "Give a man enough rope . . ." Still, as a layperson, he appears to be bending over backward to help the witnesses in their stupid act. (I can also understand now why trials take so long.) Then again, as you said, he may need to do what he's doing in order to say later that he was more than fair.

In a way, it's kind of like Internal Affairs and police officers.

Judges have to work with District Attorneys. DA's seek a judge's sign-off on search warrants, and seek to have evidence either suppressed or admitted. They want to be on good terms with judges.

When Fani Willis was disrupting the proceedings, demanding the SHE wasn't on trial, that President Trump ("all of them") are on trial, she was implicitly accusing the judge of letting this hearing about HER even happen.

She acted in the same way that police officers act when being investigated by Internal Affairs.

It's not a good look.
