On a day when more white shoe law firms are reportedly giving in to Trump’s extortion it is heartening to read this, from Susman Godfrey’s suit against the Trump regime, filed today. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.279461/gov.uscourts.dcd.279461.1.0.pdf

@heidilifeldman I just assumed that if these firms cave this fast, they must really be fascist fellow travelers in the first place. I'm seeing others think that also. False or not, what else are people supposed to think?

@timo21 @heidilifeldman The partner cohort at most of these firms is older white male with seven figure income. Just based on voting stats that means more than half are likely Orange Idiot supporters and maybe ok with bowing down.

@donald_brady @timo21 @heidilifeldman It's not just that they're bowing down. I think it's safe to assume that a significant number of these "older white men" are completely at peace with the fact that Trump is set to make life more difficult for Blacks and women. These are the men who feel their all-male clubs were never as good after they had to admit women as members, or that their country clubs were not as nice when Blacks could join.
