When you elect a career conman with 34 felony convictions to his credit, when “his” Supreme Court Justices then grant him immunity from prosecution for his official acts, you should not be surprised that crimin’ is goin’ on in his administration.

All of Trump’s lawyers have two distinguishing characteristics - they are all half a bubble off and they look and act like mobster thugs - right out of the Godfather. They all need to be disbarred when the adults are put back in charge.

It’s amazing to me how often my thoughts turn to America’s surfeit of private prisons that were built on spec and now stand empty since Trump first became president. On top of all the graft we’re’ paying for new concentration camps for immigrants, it’s reassuring to know we’ll have somewhere to house the thousands of Trump hires who think the law is optional.
Maybe someone who thinks kid-gloving them like Andrew Johnson or Gerry Ford pardoning Nixon is how to “put things behind us and move on” will get the Democratic nomination, but if so, it won’t be because they got my primary vote.
