And laws only matter if they’re enforced. Let’s hope they do.
Laws? Enforced? Against rich people? Against politicians? So naive this one....
I do hope I'm proven wrong...
I do hope you are
It's too late. Now they're going to say they can't prosecute during an election or it'll unfairly affect the outcome, and then when he wins he gains immunity. They've had 4 years to get even a single conviction out of 91 charges, and they haven't even started a single trial. They're afraid of setting precedent of prosecuting politicians because they don't want to give up their own self-appointed immunity, so they let the SCOTUS decide, and SCOTUS is a partisan hack-job right now (and probably for the rest of our lives).
Goodbye tattered democracy, hello blooming dictatorship
Its a dog and pony show
