This morning, Hinderaker cluck clucks about how perfect Thomas’s reasoning was — and how faithful his adherence was to the rule of law, in the bump-stock cases… whatever.

He derides people who lament that it all sounds quite a lot like “three-fifths of a person” reasoning. [But it does.]

Yet… for weeks now, this shining champion of accepting the law, as it exists… has made excuse after excuse, for a 34-time convicted felon — and ex-preznit.

That was a jury of his peers — who’ve lived in New York — with him, for four and five decades.

There are very many good people — people who recognize a thing, when shown it — over and over.

That is how the Founders viewed the wisdom of local juries.

Why oh why can’t Hinderaker see… that his candidate (dissing the party’s Convention, already, in Milwaukee!)… is a pure reprobate?

Because he still seeks the power he hopes that open and notorious criminal enterprise will wield, at least in part, in Hinderaker’s own personal favor.

That’s why.
