Anyone going to tell me whether a politician should ever be subject to a search warrant? Or are they above the law?
most of the outrage about this raid is rooted in the patent double standard at play, about how jarring it is to see how earnestly establishments exercise leniency against individuals in one party while contriving new levels of exactitude against the other.
THAT dynamic is the imminent danger to the Republic. But it serves the vanity of the neverTrumper. Enjoy it while it lasts.
This. When we combine this with the made-up and debunked Russian collusion narrative, two impeachments, multiple state and federal investigations, a partisan House investigation that has gone on for months and played out in prime time in order to solicit votes for the Democrats, and now this, it certainly looks like a witch hunt to prevent a disdained political figure from ever running again and/or help Democrats get elected. And although I believe some of the allegations probably have merit, the problem is there have been so many baseless/debunked allegations that those who are leading the charge are like the boy who cried wolf. Are Americans to trust them now after they told us for years that Trump conspired with Russia to rig the 2016 election? Incredibly, it appears they have managed to turn a POS like Trump into a sympathetic figure in many people's eyes.
They should have left well-enough alone, and not have given him the attention. The current strategy may actually get the man elected, God forbid.
