Yeah my faith in our justice system has gotten to the point that I can only see one of two potential outcomes realistically happening with Trump's crimes:

  • No justice. We'll dance to this song till the day he succumbs to his decades-long hamburder induced suicide.

  • Vigilante justice. Collectively we don't appear to have the spine for this kind of intervention, but even if we're talking about the one-in-a-million lone wolf type of incident, we have over 300 one-in-a-millions in the US population to choose from, so I'm honestly kinda surprised we don't see this kind of shit more often. (to be clear, this is an assessment, not a recommendation)

What do you mean by "gotten"? US has forever favored the rich white people.

like geez, take a look into your history? Segregation was fine till 60-70s. Killing people in mass abroad is okay and war crimes praised and criminals elected presidents. Funding genocide? bipartisan thumbs up.

Fuck your "justice system"

Most of us don't see that shit growing up. We're indoctrinated through our entire childhood, then slow-crash as we see example after example of a "broken" system... then finally accept that it's not broken, it's working as intended: it's evil.

US justice depends on what is in your bank account.

Or in Trump's case, what he pretended was in his bank account, and how fast he can commit more crimes to actually find that money

I've been saying from the start that the prosecution is dragging their feet, hoping he either dies or becomes president, so they don't have to be the ones who established precedent of their social class facing justice.

Almost! You can imagine how frustrated my FBI agent must have been when he got to that disclaimer at the end of the post!
