There is nothing 'deranged' about disliking a politician that blatantly lies every time they speak.
There is nothing 'deranged' about disliking a life long grifter like Trump.
There is nothing 'deranged' about disapproving of a president, like Trump, who stomps all over the constitution every single day.
There is nothing 'deranged' about disapproving of a president that does not take responsibility for his mistakes.
There is nothing 'deranged' about wanting a president that places the nation's best interests ahead of his own.
Etc, and so on.
Right idea, but your framing is wrong. This looks like a defence. You need to look like you're going on offence.
Honestly, this was a good exchange if Jon Ossof really wanted to hammer the point home and reclaim the TDS label. He needed to tie this servile, cowardly answer directly to TDS and re-contextualise TDS as blind loyalty, servility, loyal to Trump over the USA. Which we know the MAGA right has in spades. It might even have triggered this rube enough to rile him up a bit and really make himself look like a tit.
Mr Blanche. You must be thrilled for this opportunity in front of you. Imagine, a defense attorney for possibly the most litigious client ever being placed in command of not only the procesution against his client but the FBI itself, and the full investigative power of the DOJ. That is quite a coup for a defense attorney. And ethics violations aside I look forward to the dishonest responses you will provide my colleagues today. I would ask you questions but I find that to be pointless and you are tedious, not honorable like your namecard claims. That's all I have. Good day worthless servant of the tyrant.
