An engrossing script, convincing acting, and an absolutely horrific representation of what lawyers do and how they view what they do.
Remember the story of Hillary's successful defense of a rapist thug by intentionally making the jury believe the victim was indiscriminately promiscuous, though she had neither the least idea nor the least concern whether such beliefs would be true, and in fact they were not?
Her strategy was referred to, as I recall, as basically "slut shaming."
Republicans retailed the story as further proof, if that could possibly be needed, that Hillary is an unscrupulous, ambitious woman who will let nothing stand between her and success.
That caught on for a while and then a number of irate and obtuse lawyers were moved to defend her by insisting that's the job, that's how the system works, that's what lawyers do.
Earth to lawyers. Yes, we got that.
