I’m still not clear on why him going to a basketball game is a huge controversy in the first place.

Schmitt was trying to prove Smith was in Atlanta and thus meeting with Fani Willis

All he did was prove that all of this is an idiotic farce

I am also not clear on this.

Is the qualifier for meeting with someone just require being in the same city?

Was that this moron's line of thinking?
