    There is nothing he could have done, no crime heinous enough, no evidence damning enough, that will cause our country’s legal system to put him in a cell.

    He’s white. He’s rich. He’s connected. He’s as corrupt as a CVS receipt is long. He’s above the law because the law exists to punish minorities for existing and no other reason.

      I mean, I’m not holding my breath on Trump being held to account for anything ever, but the whole reason we’re talking about this is because a rich, connected, corrupt white man went to jail and died there.

        Right, but he was (allegedly) killed by another rich, connected, corrupt person to stop him from taking anyone else down with him. Which adds another wrinkle to the whole thing. When you try to hold someone like that accountable, they kill you and get away with it.

      and no other reason.

      I think you’re summarizing a bit here. I’m gonna need to see something other than anecdotes.

      A white, rich president of the u.s will never set foot in jail, people need to accept that. The best we can do is keep him away from politics, bog him in legal issues and wait for a big Mac to kill him

        No. Accepting that is resigning ourselves to this current state being permanent.

      There’s also the problems of supreme court bias and that the Dems would see locking him up as the greatest sin of all - being uncivil and disturbing the status quo.

      They’re making it so that the only way a normal person can even get a chance at a life is to burn the system down and start over.
