Jack Smith did everything by the book because he knew his present situation was a possible outcome. The incompetence that Trump, and by extension, the DOJ, have shown in prosecuting their enemies must be a huge concern for them as they consider going up against a formidable opponent like Smith, who has consistently shown time and again that he has his mother fucking shit in order.

    Or y'know, he did everything by the book because he's a good lawyer with good ethics?

  • Compare to Trump's attempts to prosecute Comey and James. They put a loyalty-over-competence plant as the prosecutor, who then created an indictment so defective the case was thrown out (or, for other charges, they could not even convince a grand jury), followed by the prosecutor being disqualified from even serving.

    That said, like all cheaters he won't accept the loss. He'll be appointing new judges and eventually, if not stopped, the justice system will be as smooth-brained as him.

    This is what most competent law enforcement and justice departments do and why "justice" takes time to cross all the Ts and dot the Is. The case falls apart if one bit is out of place. Unless you don't actually care about justice or the rule of law and disregard all judgments but your own.
