(70,740 posts)In my neck of the woods, over decades, as recently as last month, there have been countless judges of various jurisdictions, who have been arrested for DWI, with several lurid reports about "Do you know who I am?" and "Please, don't ruin what I've worked for for so many years!"
None of them resigned. Some ran for re-election and were re-elected. The so-far survivors are still on the bench, some passing judgment on fellow DWI-ers.
Apparently GOODHAIR's supporters (who ARE these people?!1) have adopted the line of the drunk woman D.A. as justifying his idiotic threats and official oppression. The dude has ZERO INSIGHT into himself, his motives, his talent/capacity -- or else, the depth of his being obtuse is such that he thinks nobody else can see through him.
