You’re right, he gets away with absolutely everything and has seemed to be above the law, I’m hoping he’ll finally see justice through any of the current lawsuits he faces. I guess better wording is that there are guidelines and practices in place for regular people for the various crimes he’s arguably committed, the question has been what to do when a president is the one guilty. That’s a new question for us and many argue it’s not as straightforward as “charge him and throw him in jail”. People think prosecuting a president sets a dangerous precedent politicizing the judicial system, which by definition should be impartial.
Outside of any legal questions we’ve just never had someone with absolutely zero decorum. It’s uncharted territory.
I personally feel incredibly helpless and am so sad and scared watching everything unfolding around us.
I’m not sure if that answers much but it’s all I’ve got at 4 am!
