I blame Mitch McConnell a lot. He was mad about Jan 6 and could have voted to convict Trump (which would have brought more Republican votes). Trump then barred from running again: a political solution to a constitutional crisis rather than strictly a judicial one.

I'm still thinking about how the Saudi despot does his best to make sure no one is killed and dismembered at one of his embassies again.

Saudi Arabia soft power - i.e., what comes to mind when MBS is in the news

It's too bad we don't live in a political or legal culture where, say, a lawyer who joined a partisan campaign to do work like this (Bush 2000 FL recount) knew that precluded his being named a judge in later life.
