@boredsfgiantsf1 @savanaroller There is no rational explanation of that, but I was shocked at comments on Twitter about "crocodile tears" and lack of expertise of the EMT witness who I found moving, credible and professional. MAGA? — PolitiTweet.org

@TerryDuling Thank you - I should be more careful, though. — PolitiTweet.org

@ShariTucker10 @cmclymer Yikes - thank you. I'm taking it down, though I do think he will never be King, but wonder who cares. — PolitiTweet.org

@mollysmcdonough @cmclymer Oh no. I trusted @cmclymer plus I saw a play, Charles III, in London about that exact chain of events. It's now a movie. I will delete my retweet. Thanks for the heads up. — PolitiTweet.org

@Marroncita2008 Interesting question. Although there has been no suggestion or evidence of #Chauvin being drunk or on drugs, his stone-faced stare and depraved indifference to pleas from #GeorgeFloyd and eyewitnesses makes it a valid question. — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

This is the most accurate comment on guilt in the #ChauvinTrial except for the teen eyewitness who has been sleepless with guilt that she didn't do more to save #GeorgeFloyd and worry that it could have been her father, brother, but concluded the real crime is what Chauvin did. — PolitiTweet.org

@donwinslow @Yahoo It is an amazing book about a fascinating author. — PolitiTweet.org

@cmclymer I thought it was totally predictable for a very long time. The evidence has been clear as we watched the Queen refuse to turn over the reins. — PolitiTweet.org

@PeterMAmbler @BuffyWicks @RepYoungKim @RepSteel Four dead is a mass murder. They are happening too frequently. — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

Today's #ChauvinTrial showed the humanity of #GeorgeFloyd, the depravity of #Chauvin (& other officers), the trauma to eyewitnesses to the murder & jurors who saw the videos from multiple angles and with sound. Defense efforts to blame the crowd and the victim are falling flat. — PolitiTweet.org

@PoliticusSarah @DebraMessing @politicususa Not surprising, but very wrong and very consistent with everything in the Trump era. — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

Good closing argument for the prosecution in #ChauvinTrial. The jury will totally get this concept which is why the defense argument that Chauvin didn't cause Floyd's death won't work. Floyd lived for years with preexisting conditions and drugs. — PolitiTweet.org

@tuezday3 @CnBsNana Most of us would be and jury will feel that too — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

@13phoenix1 @CnBsNana He did excuse jury before admonishing her. I don't think his ruling on objections will empathy outcome of case. I think defense trying to paint crowd as "angry" and MMA witness Williams as "angry" and disteactinfg & frightening to police will not work. Nor will blaming the victim — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

@janexbond I understand your view but she is trained to help in emergencies and had she been allowed to or had #Chauvin eased off, this might not be a murder trial. I think her reasonable effort to intervene and her testimony combined w the others today was powerful and defense efforts weak — PolitiTweet.org

@LGBJoey @JohnWDean Wow! — PolitiTweet.org

@mcgargano @JohnWDean Let's say we're both right. They were the Marx Brothers of burglars so bunglars is good description. — PolitiTweet.org

Jill Wine-Banks @JillWineBanks

@CnBsNana Judges do try to limit witnesses to answering the questions asked in order to keeping admissible evidence from sneaking in and also try to control tensions in their court. Happened to me twice during Watergate trial w Rise Woods & a defendantl. Read #TheWatergateGirl for details. — PolitiTweet.org

@LGBJoey @JohnWDean Guess I underestimated the compelling fascination of Watergate and its cast of characters. — PolitiTweet.org
