The last paragraph startles me. The judge clearly fails to appreciate that Rudy Giuliani's defamation of the election workers did real and significant damage. The very point of defamation laws is to halt such damage.
I hate to say it, but a judge who fails like this will likely fail to assess appropriate damages and penalties even if he recognized that Giuliani's utterances met the legal definition.
