Bribes. Again.

I miss the days when most politics disagreement were over things like whether it was better to have more taxes/services versus fewer... As opposed to today, where it seems to be "government shouldn't commit evil crimes" versus "but I really wanna crime and you can't stop me".

I hope there is a reckoning. How hard is it to prosecute Trump when the Supreme Court ruled that he can't be prosecuted for crimes committed during his presidency?

Very. He can carry out armloads of gold from Fort Knox to Mar-Lago and is untouchable.

No one is untouchable by the American people.

Right.

Good luck touching him. He won't be prosecuted.
