Just to add a counterpoint, in the March elections I waited in line over 2.5 hours here in LA to vote.  Lines were longer at other locations.  During the November election, lines wrapped around the block even accounting for social distancing as well as every registered voter in the state getting a ballot in the mail.  Yes, agreed, places like Texas disenfranchised voters by limiting polling places as well as drop off locations, but to say that suburban voting takes minutes in California is (in my experience) a fallacy.  I waited for an hour to vote for Obama in 2008.  Again, not as long, but not shorter than a typical drive-thru dining experience either!

As has been commented on several times previously, have you not seen/heard/read Giuliani over the last four years?  Have you not witnessed with your own eyes Giuliani riling up the base with baseless accusations?  Was the entire Hunter Biden computer bullshit not the final nail in the coffin before his gathering of reporters at the Four Seasons Total Landscaping debacle OR his embarrassing presser at RNC headquarters? 

Seriously?  

"It would be disappointing" (emphasis mine) implies that you are not, as of yet, disappointed in him.  What has he done to engender any sort of faith in the man?

I find it hilarious that in the US and the UK, over 80% of adults have a smartphone, which means they are literally walking around with a GPS, camera, and microphone, but people are convinced that the government is going to track them with injected microchips.

James, I think he's stooped pretty low with respect to things he's said and done as a political operative, and yes, Republicans have breached my tolerance threshold several times over the past few years.  So have the Democrats.  

I think we have a huge problem with hyper-partisanship among our elected leaders and the press, to the extent that the ends almost always justifies the means.  Consequently, over the top rhetoric, false, and misleading statements, and half truths have become the norm.  I have found that to be tremendously disappointing for quite some time.

With regard to the specific comment you are responding to, I was expressing my disappointment that Giuliani would allow that to extend to his conduct as an attorney. 

And for the record, its too soon to say whether that will be the case in this instance.  As I mentioned to Brad, Paragraph 70 in the Notice of Contest in the case we were discussing (Law v. Whitmer) DOES allege exactly the type of fraud that was described in the poll worker's affidavit.  So the affidavit may or may not end up being used in court.

I think this is fair comment, given you expressly made reference to his resume as an attorney in the original comment.

But I would contend that tied in with the over-the-top rhetoric, misleading statements and so forth that you also reference is that the people doing so should know better. If Guiliani is hyperbolic and reckless in front of the cameras and microphones of the mass media for the last few years, whilst conducting himself in a shrewder and more circumspect manner in court, this tells us inarguably that he knows he is being a dick in front of the media.

If I rolled my eyes any harder at those fools, my eyes would look like the rollers on a slot machine.
