Conservatives can’t be trusted to serve in public positions. They will literally always ditch their principles – if they ever had any in the first place – to serve their political goals, naturally claiming that this is what “the left” does so it’s OK for then to do it too
edit: this is why any sort of jury trial for Trump is probably doomed to fail. Any conservative jurors will favor him no matter what, and will absolutely lie about their plans to do so in the selection process
revenge of the edit: so the NY conviction was by a jury, happy surprise
