All our politicians and operatives are lawyer trained. So they politic like a lawyer trying to win a case - my side is blameless, your side is the worst. And the public forgot this theater and took it literally, and adopted the same methods and tone
There’s something about the lawyering of American political discourse that I wanna see illuminated. How political operatives and candidates were once prosecutors and the public was once the jury, but now now the public was switched to being prosecutors too
