... Trump got away with serious crimes against the United States.

Our judicial system failed spectacularly by not holding him accountable.

So much for "the greatest country in the world."

Our Legislative Branch failed to hold the criminal responsible even though he was IMPEACHED twice! The evidence was overwhelming but Republicans protected the crook.

To make matters more stupid, our judiciary allowed Trump to run for re-election even though he had committed treason and acted as a traitor. He was even convicted of 34 felonies but America decided he was THE MAN.

Our judges suck. So does the United States.
