I can’t get it through my head that Trump will apparently be acquitted of crimes we all witnessed with our very own eyes. I need serious help to understand this.
He questioned the integrity of the election long before he actually lost, telegraphing his plan to cry foul and prevent the peaceful transition of power, his own ego being more important than everything else.

History will shame them -- for all their descendants to see, and to carry in their bones.
