    If this arrest doesn’t happen, democracy is one step closer to the grave.

    A lot of shit has happened to destroy democracy so far (has anyone been keeping a list?), but if billionaires see that they can now buy votes, nothing will stop them from doing it over and over again. We will be Russia.

      I’m at the point where I know he won’t face consequences because he’s rich. But an arrest and trial would at least be sanity.

      and its becoming blatant and bold

      Muskrat isn’t doing this for any other reason other than to test and expand the boundaries. It’s challenging the American people … if he can go this far and allowed to get away with it, then it will become the norm. The fault won’t be that he is doing it … the fault will be the American people who put up with this crap.

      I’ve given up on trying to understand dumb American politicians … I’m completely disillusioned and lost hope in the American people.

      It’s not a small group of billionaires that will destroy democracy in America … it will be an entire nation of people who just stand aside and watch everything burn without saying or doing a thing about it.

      Worry not, most Americans are bravely waiting until they have no options left and literally living in squalor before considering any action

      In the last 8+ years I have seen the goal post for action moved so many times, I have lost all hope Americans will actually do something for themselves

      I guess you won’t make fun of French people anymore
