Trump Lawyer Cries About Her Reputation Being Ruined For Pushing Trump's Conspiracies - Farron Balanced



Trump lawyer Christina Bobb isn't happy about the state of her reputation, and she recently appeared on a right wing media outlet to whine about what's happened to her. Bobb says that she is now viewed as a "crazy conspiracy theorist" all because she pushed Donald Trump's election lies in the media and in lawsuits. She has no one to blame but herself for this, as she made the choice to stake her reputation on representing Donald Trump. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.


====================

*This transcript was auto-generated. Please excuse any typos.

Trump attorney Christina Bob, who also happens to be a broadcaster with the, uh, one America News Network, uh, possibly Rightside Broadcasting Network. I'm not exactly sure which one she's with. I know at one point she was with one America, but that's beside the point because during a conversation with Rightside Broadcasting Network over this past weekend, Christina, Bob cried about the fact that people view her as some kind of crazy conspiracy theorist when all she did was question the legitimate results of the 2020 presidential election. Oh, you question one election and suddenly everybody thinks you are crazy. Imagine that. Here's what Christina Bob said. So, like for example, when I was covering the Arizona audit, I got accused of being, you know, far right, crazy conspiracy theorists. She's covering the Arizona audit. If you go back and watch my coverage, I was telling you what was happening every day. And when I, when I was guessing or speculating, I would say I was like, this is what I think is going to happen based on what we're seeing today. But that pegged me as a far crazy conspiracy theorist when I was just reporting the facts.

Her reporting, by the way, has been described by the Arizona Republic as, uh, deceptive and dangerous, shady, irresponsible, harmful, and said, you can call it all those things. Just don't call it journalism. So the actual independent people out there reporting on your reporting if said it was shady, dangerous, irresponsible, deceptive. So I would say that the title of crazy conspiracy theorist is probably very accurate for you. Christina. Bob, what did you expect to happen though? I mean, good god, this is the point I bring up every time to these people that have, you know, metaphorically, of course gotten in bed with Donald Trump. You don't get a happily ever after. Donald Trump's biggest legacy here in the United States is his ability to destroy somebody's legal career. I mean, Michael Cohen, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Alina Haba, that poor little, like one year outta law school guy who just got smacked down for, you know, filing that case for Donald Trump in Florida, Christina, Bob, Sidney Powell, uh, what's his name? The other, you know, weirdo, uh, uh, uh, who's now gonna testify in Georgia. I forget his name. There's so many of them. I can't remember them all. Christina is the point, and you're out there whining, like, oh, people have put this label on me. You know, it's kind of like that. Oh, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions, because that is what this is. You made a choice. You chose to go out there and say things that, again, according to the Arizona Republic,

We're shady, irresponsible, harmful, deceptive, and dangerous. You made that choice. You made the choice to work with Donald Trump. You made the choice to sign your name on that document prepared by Evan Corcoran that said, there's no documents at Mar-a-Lago. You did every step of that, and I understand why you did it. You wanted to further your career. You thought representing Donald Trump, going out there, doing his bidding, pushing this nonsense in Arizona, you thought it would make you, I don't know, famous. You thought it would make you rich. You thought it would help your legal career. I don't know which one of those it was, but you definitely thought it would do at least one of those things. It did. None of those. You've now been relegated to one of the lowest rated conservative media outlets out there. I don't even know if one America is even on TV anymore. This is your legacy, and you crafted that legacy for yourself. Trump helped you along the way, but he only helped you because you sought it. So if you're being labeled, you know, a crazy conspiracy theorist, please understand it's not because people have taken you out of context. It's because people have just been watching what you've done, and that's what they believe about you today. You got nobody to blame for that other than yourself.

but committing perjury by signing that document and lying to everybody on right wing media wasn't that much of a choice, IMO, people say that no one can say no to TFG. Doing so makes them instant enemies, people me must destroy. He'll do it, too, doxing them on social media and sending his flying monkeys to their friends and family. Saying no is a scary proposition, especially for a woman.

If she's got any brains at all, she'll flip and claim duress when it comes to the lying and the case of perjury. She might even be able to make that stick, at least to anyone who's ever dealt with a malignant narcissist.

The sooner she finds her inner cynic, the better. Finding out the world aint what they told you it was when you were repeating the same tired lies in media is a tough thing to do, but the sooner she confronts it head on and throws Blobfather under the bus to save her own skin, the better, especially now that he's got a gag order.
