When a senior member of Donald Trump's coup conspiracy, Jenna Ellis, was arrested in Georgia in August, she did better than most of her 18 co-defendants in serving "you can't touch me" face to the mug shot photographer. Ellis, who worked closely with Rudy Giuliani, had been pretending for years to be a "constitutional law" attorney, even though she had actually been an assistant district attorney prosecuting traffic tickets for a mere six months in Colorado before being fired. With her fake "expertise," Ellis had been at the forefront of efforts to pressure conservative judges and election officials to steal the 2020 election for Trump. Her 2023 mugshot suggested she was still confident she could bullshit her way through anything.
