I don’t believe in consolation prizes. I believe in equal justice under the law for everyone. If these miscreants subverted justice and committed criminal acts, then they need to pay the appropriate consequences allowed under the law. No exceptions.
To let the skate is to set up a two tier justice system and allow others to think they will get special treatment down the road.
I hear you.
But it’s just not happening. You can talk all day long about how fair it is or how necessary it is that they go to prison - but that doesn’t change the fact that only Republicans resign in disgrace, or go to prison - Democrats skate.
It’s just a fact of life that the Left controls the airwaves. The public believes what they read in the news and what they read in the news is that Republicans are the crooks and Democrats are the good guys.
Until that changes, we have a two-tier justice system.
