Trump Conspirators Beware: Rudy Giuliani’s Loss Is a Reminder That the Courtroom Is MAGA Kryptonite | The Smirking Chimp

Has this rooster finally become a Feather Duster?

The arrogance that Trump and his acolytes bring to lying to the public is not the superpower they think it is. Trump fanboys like “Dilbert” creator Scott Adams may call him a “Master Persuader,” but in reality, a majority of Americans have always disliked Trump and his overall popularity has declined over time. And that’s in the world of politics, where lies have more power and “debate” is an unstructured mess that often privileges disinformation. In court, the rules of evidence and argument restrain Trump and other Big Liars more. So much so that Giuliani’s lies about Moss and Freeman, which were so popular among the MAGA right, were too stupid to even bother arguing about it at trial. The only question left is how much money the two will get from the sale of that Manhattan apartment.
