The soon to be firing of Jeff Sessions
Re: The soon to be firing of Jeff Sessions

Quoting fromĀ http://allthetropes.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_Razor

Quote:Hanlon's Razor is often stated this way:

Don't assume malice when stupidity is an adequate explanation. At least, not the first time.

However, once you pass the Mrs. Bridges test (taken from BBC's Upstairs, Downstairs, in that "Once is bad luck, twice is a bad habit"), malice becomes a reasonable hypothesis. At this point the Dr. Johnny Fever rule applies ("When they're out to get you, paranoia is just straight thinking").

How many times has it been, now?

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
