Lawyer for QAnon Shaman says his client and other MAGA rioters are 'f***ing retarded and on the goddamn spectrum' after being subjected to four years of 'Hitler-like propaganda'
2021-05-19
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Jacob Chansley, 33, is among those awaiting potential prison sentences after being charged over the US Capitol riots on January 6

  • His attorney Albert Watkins suggested that Chansley's mental state and Trump's so-called 'propaganda' would play a role in his case

  • Watkins noted that his client, who remains jailed on charges of civil disorder and five other counts, has Asperger's syndrome
    That would explain why the prosecutor back in Phoenix said he had mental issues. But President Trump is not responsible for the ideas of someone who usually hangs out with Antifa.
  • The attorney had previously tried to argue that Trump was to blame for Chansley's actions because he'd dragged him into a web of lies

#3  Would not matter how good an attorney he had; the courts are afraid to let him out.

#2  He wouldn't have entered the Capital if Capital Police hadn't invited him in. With a good attorney he would be free. Sadly, Watkins is a shill for the government.

#1  From "lack of childhood role models" to "voices made me do it," it's always somebody else's fault. And everyone in jail is innocent, too...
