Assess the situation?!
The president is not, nor should, be above the fucking law. Where are the checks? Where are the balances? This country was literally founded on this idea (among many others)! Set the right precedent and put this fucking crook in jail!
In 1776 they definitely would be checked. We lost our way. Money outweighs principles. Money was important back then, but it wasn’t above (known) principles. We did have slavery and suffrage. It would be nice that those did not exist in our history. But those are eventually changed.
This crap is not what we were founded on. The Republicans are not patriots. They are cowards.
Ignore the fact that after 1776 people tried to make George Washington King and the only reason we didn’t have a king now is because Washington turned it down in favor of a huge portion of the gdp.
People really need to abandon the mythology that the founding fathers were incredible thinkers with profound morals compasses when most were drunken criminals with some good ideas in-between objectively horrible ones.
That’s a niche fact that “some” wanted him to be a king. And that he was the only one to design the structure of government. A congress was seen as an unrealistic possibility and that a king could be better. So it’s just a huge what if. That didn’t even happen.
The founding fathers has principles. They had separated to break free from their oppressive leaders and create their own system. The Republicans have exploited this system and leveraged it to promote the worst possibilities.
It’s not beneficial to all citizens and they are sad people that will ruin the world if they are not stopped.
