Followed the case, posted about it here, and knew where that was going. People liked the media performances and didn't see the legal clusterfuck she was making of the case. Slay kween! is not actually a legal strategy.

Ah well.

Unforced errors by Willis, in the most important case of her career (which is now effectively over) created the conflicts, obvious to all, that gave Trump’s team an opening to pounce.
