It seems that tfg’s legal woes have morphed into slapstick humor (que Keystone Kops music), only instead of policemen, they are lawyers. Its become more and more a pile-on as we see more people posting their opinions of this issue.

The New York Times reported legal experts joke MAGA now stands for "Making Attorneys Get Attorneys," based on the reputational risk of working with Trump. The Keystone Cops (often spelled "Keystone Kops") are fictional, humorously incompetent policemen featured in silent film slapstick comedies produced by Mack Sennett for his Keystone Film Company between 1912 and 1917. www.yahoo.com/...

I actually needed some humor today, but did not expect it to come via this article. But I’m still laughing due to the visual “Keystone Kops” conjuring up with all those familiar legal faces superimposed over those policemen shown in the video.

"There's no way to adhere to your ethical integrity and keep your job," Kimberly Wehle, a University of Baltimore law professor who closely tracked investigations into the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol, told The New York Times of the dilemma Mr. Trump's lawyers face: "There's just no way to not step into a mess." www.yahoo.com/...

The article itself is rather short but reminds me that there is always a lighter side to things if viewed with some sarcastic humor. But that’s just me. My son tells me I have a weird sense of humor, but he qualifies it as not being graveyard humor, which apparently he is a fan of.

The list of attorneys involved so far in tfg’s plans keeps wiggling around, but many of the names are not unknown: Mitchell, Ellis, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Christina Bobb, Michael Cohen.
