Former Trump lawyer John Eastman should lose his license, judge rules

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : He has been indicted, along with Trump and 17 others, in Fulton County, Ga., for election-related schemes.
44% : All along, Eastman's defense has been that he was performing his duty as a vigorous legal advocate for Trump, advancing his legal theories in good faith, with a subjective belief in their merit.
33% : But state bar attorneys argued "the evidence, including his often not-credible trial testimony, shows that he held -- and still holds -- truth and democracy in contempt, deliberately disregarding facts that demonstrate the validity of Biden's victory to further a false narrative that would ignore the Constitution, disenfranchise millions of voters, and undermine a democratic election for President of the United States in favor of his allegiance to Trump.
31% : Eastman "has not accepted an iota of responsibility for his misconduct," and showed a "complete and total lack of remorse," instead portraying himself as a victim of political persecution.
22% : But at the trial, Gableman admitted that his own 14-month probe into the election failed to prove that fraud cost Trump the election.
19% : In a marathon trial that lasted off-and-on from June to November, the State Bar, the agency that regulates lawyers, argued that Eastman was unfit to practice law for peddling bogus claims that fraud cost Trump the election and for promoting a fake-elector scheme to block the electoral count.
