i think what s so frustrating as how they are, they say one thing to their television audience, and when they re in the courtroom they say something different. and their audience seems to continue to consume the lies. it s an amazing trick they pull off. good marks for a good con, i would say. thank you, mehdi. thanks, lawrence. thank you. the rest of the world cannot understand what s happening in this country, now. would the supreme court is doing could not happen in a democracy. in a democracy, the membership of the supreme court would reflect the democratically expressed will of the people. that means, the supreme court would reflect the democratically expressed will of the majority of the people, because the supreme court justices would be appointed by presidents elected by a majority of voters. but that is not the way we elect presidents in this country. we are the only country in the world where the person who comes and second with the votes can end up in t
