Irsay, an incredibly rich white guy whose family is best known for spiriting the Colts out of Baltimore in the middle of the night, claims he was arrested for DUI in 2014 because he is a white billionaire. To be sure, that puts a completely different spin on the concept of the offense of DWB.
What can we learn from this? First of all, the idea that the law only applies to little people isn’t limited to Donald Trump. Second, Irsay is either so caught up in the right-wing culture of victimization that he has actually started to believe it, or he’s so cynical that he thinks there is a large audience for it. Either way, it’s not a pretty sight.
