      Okay, so which question does that answer? Unfortunately, Trump lives in the US where the President somehow has complete immunity to everything, which seems more like an indictment on the Supreme Court than on Biden or other Democrats. It might even be an indictment of the voters, for electing Trump and giving him immunity to his crimes.

        @webadict You didnt ask questions you implied that they couldnt Persecute Trump “Because there wasnt enough time”. Biden could have jailed him due to the same immunity from the Supreme court.

        Also you know blaming the voters for not persecuting Trump is a new low.

        Additionally I almost forgot about Yoon Suk Yeol who got arrested for a similar coup attempt:

        weird that other countries seem to be able to punish coup attempts. Almost as long there is political will…

          A new low? Okay, pal. I’m not entirely sure where you think my old low was, but sure? I asked some pretty basic questions because I legitimately don’t think you know how the US legal system works. And it’s fair not to. Pointing to other countries on how corruption is dealt with, insofar as what could’ve or should’ve been done, doesn’t override the way that the US system works. Why don’t you point to other corruption cases for lower offices in the US? Those also take years to investigate and prosecute. Some of the lower office corruption cases can be wrapped up in a little as a few months, but then tend not to.

          Does that help point out the issue?

            @webadict So you ignored the comment i made about Garland?

            ‘Fatal Mistake’: Democrats Blame DOJ As Trump Escapes Accountability For Jan. 6
            “Merrick Garland wasted a year,” Rep. Jerrold Nadler said ahead of the fourth anniversary of the 2021 Capitol riot.

            https://www.huffpost.com/entry/january-6-doj-trump/_n/_67783f7ce4b0f0fdb7b19d36

            Also i am not your “pal”. Its simply ultra low when liberals keep blaming DNC failures on the electorate. No wonder Democrats approval rating is sub 30% with their own base.

              Again, little buddy, I must ask if you think the DNC controls the DoJ? Blaming Merrick Garland is certainly a fair point, and it’s one you can bring against Biden himself since he nominated him! That is fair. But, you still haven’t used US corruption cases to support your words on how long the average corruption case takes to investigate and prosecute.

              Like, I get you want to blame Democrats for everything because you have some sort of agenda or personal grievance or whatever the fuck. I don’t really give a shit why. They are surely to blame for many things, and the DNC is also to blame for many things. But, I really don’t think the Democrats are to blame for Trump not being held accountable. Especially since Trump has been held accountable on several smaller scales by mostly Democrats.

              But, anyway, feel free to call all your perceived enemies liberals or whatever, my dude. You’re doing great! :)

                  You ignored everything I said because you don’t really think about your positions. You’re just a little guy who links news articles. You don’t know anything, buddy. I’m sorry that you don’t think I’m a leftist because I vote for harm reduction. I want my trans friends to live, and that will keep them alive longer.

                    @webadict Yes i linked articles.

                    Because that way, unlike you i don’t have to make shit up to make a point.

                    I have not read anything from you that indicates an informed position.

                    The DNC is indefensible and already signalled that they throw Trans people under the bus.

                    Harm reduction needs to reduce harm. I dont see any harm reduction with Dems in power. Id love to link examples but making you read articles is apparently bad.
