If Republicans and Saiditors want to have a shred of authenticity, they should admit to the necessity of the rule of law for everyone.

That would be fine with me, but that's not what we're seeing. Trump, Biden, Obama and Bush haven't been indicted for their war crimes or the deaths of innocent civilians they ordered. Biden is on video openly admitting to a quid pro quo with Ukraine, why isn't he being impeached? Why didn't we impeach him when he distributed covid funds based on race and gender in direct violation of the civil rights act?

Instead we're going after Trump for a clerical error. Not even a federal charge, this is coming from the DA of a state he doesn't even live in.

That's why it looks like a witch hunt. Every past president (including Trump) is a criminal and their crimes are far more egregious that falsifying business records. If you want to indict them all for their war crimes I'm all for it. Instead we seem to be spending an immense amount of time, money, and resources on the only POTUS in my lifetime who didn't involve us in a war.

    If someone tells you commit murder and you do you're still a murderer and it's still a crime.

    Because you misunderstood the video.

    It turns out america doesn't accept is war crimes. So within the US legal system, these are crimes. And because the rules of law should apply to everyone, that includes against Trump.

    It's especially important, because among the crimes he likes to do is instigate an insurgency, so he needs to be taken off the street for the safety of the country.

    It sucks for his secret service security detail though. They would have to go to prison too, so that they can protect the ex president.
