J was actually referring to SW’s comment.

But from my vantage point, not punishing the serious criminals will be the very worst disruption, as it removes the foundation of equal justice under the law for the entire country, for the future. My tagline is part of a statement, on my profile page:

“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.”
Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956

And I am convinced that POTUS Trump sees the same way, and more so. Sweeping horrendous crimes under the rug and letting the criminals off because they are Big Names will destroy the foundation of our republic forever. It’s over.

That all depends on WHEN it happens. Too early and there'll be hell to pay.

However, at the right time millions will be demanding it.

I couldn't agree more, with both of you. Given a long enough time span we may all be proven right.

Trust the plan

Hear, hear.

Agree with you. Our enemies must be 100% defeated and lose all so that we don’t continue a back and forth battle with them for generations as they try to regain control.
