(2,541 posts)I applaud your optimism. However actions are what makes the world go around not words. I have been around long enough and been attentive enough to realize that the justice system is certainly not operating as it has when you look at the historical behavior of the department. No reasonable person can say otherwise.
DT has certainly taken a novel approach in gaming the system by flooding it with one instance after another of dubious if not criminal actions and so far it appears the DOJ is either pushing a mountain of caution ahead of itself concerning any actions it may take or it genuinely does not know how to handle DT.
This would not be so bad if it was not for the fact that everyday it seems DT, the GOP and the Right continues their assault on Democracy or should I say they are allowed to continue do so because they continue to not be held accountable for anything. Not the coup they attempted or the almost 1 million Americans that have died nor the numerous other violations committed right out in the open from Emoluments violations to Hatch Act violations or the most recent one shredding of documents that should be at the National Archives not be....shredded or in a box in some back room at a Florida golf course.
Given this it is understandable that people would think the towel has already been thrown in the ring.
