But no really, I get it may seem crazy to those on the right to indict a former president, but I would say it's a good thing given one of the founding tenets of the United States was that the leaders were specifically NOT to supposed to be Gods.
I mean, could you imagine how fast someone other than Trump, like some pleb intern or something, would be thrown in federal prison if they took all of those documents?
Damn that’s a great point.
I feel like everyone is so used to Trump violating one sacred cow after another that this isn’t even registering for a lot of the country.
Even folks who are anti trump have been conditioned to think he’ll just get away with this like always.
I'd argue that, like, most of the presidents who've existed should have been indicted on something or other.
