    The proven offenses stack high enough they’re giving us Kessler syndrome.

    If nobodys going to do shit, what is the point of proving things to a high standard?

      Because it’s better to not regress as a society into a worse mob than we already are. No standards for Trump sets a precedent for no standards for anybody

        But if nobody’s going to do shit, what are you actually doing? What is the difference between guilty and innocent? Aren’t you just making the two converge?

          We are talking about an unprecedented event in the history of the US Federal government. How we get out of this and how Trump gets held accountable before he dies is not something anyone has had to figure out before. I would hope that the total erosion of justice for all is not the way

            Nah they figured it out. The framers of the us constitution said some shit about watering the tree of liberty. The French figured out specific solutions in the 90s, the Russians modernized them a century later.

            You just want daddy to do it for you. You are the reason nothing’s getting done.
