Actually pretty sure the fucking assholes who kept chanting "tRuSt tHe pRoCeSs" were the centrist pro-business democrats and the people who thought Merrick Garland wasn't absolutely fucking this all up.
Further, him deserving to go to prison is why people were fucking hopeful that he would.
Anyway, at least the idea that can "trust the process" is finally dead and fucking buried where it should have been thirty god damned years ago.
But seriously, how long is the NYT gonna sanewash this shit and act like Trump isn't an abusive criminal who has successfully abused the system to put himself above the law? Now literally comparing the need to put a criminal like him behind bars and bar him from running for President to fringe conspiracy theories. What a crock of shit.
Not gonna lie, Meidas Touch is annoying.
Long ago, someone observed that the system won't save you. That's what it's there for.
And it'll certainly not save you from the system.
Yeah, that headline is real big talk for a newspaper who was convinced Saddam had WMD
Yeah, we didn't know back when that law was just over.
