They dated and he took her on a couple of vacations. I am truly at a loss to understand how that is worse than anything the orange scumbucket has done since being elected.
Ah, but you see, he's white and they are not. I hope this clears things up.
It's not and pathetic of you to pull the race card. Based on your username, you probably depend on that crutch for many of your shortcomings in life. This is more like if you were a white defendant and found out that the black DA and Prosecutor had been in a relationship before bringing charges against you.
Bro/sis, I'm fucking white myself. I wasn't pulling the race card so much as explaining how the justice system here is slanted against anyone who isn't white. And if you don't agree with that, maybe you should ask yourself why not.
It is
When you take a shot at the most powerful person in the world (hyperbole to make a point), you better not miss.
I've decided not to apply for a promotion I was likely to get partially because it would have meant managing a person I dated 18 years ago. She is a lawyer. I shouldn't be smarter than her about what could represent a workplace ethical violation.
It's not. But it's a conflict.
The conflict of interest should never have affected the case itself. But tbf that would have been in the before times. Now that the orange asswipe owns SCOTUS nothing makes sense anymore.
Totally agree
