Donald Trump was sentenced in New York on Friday, capping a long and, at times, embarrassing ordeal that saw him become the first ex-president to be criminally convicted.

I guess I don’t understand their reasoning at all here. Trump is currently a private citizen and the entire point of our checks and balances system is the judicial branch is supposed to not give a fuck about whats going on in the executive branch and issue rulings on what is in front of them.
Nevermind the fact that the whole “you can’t prosecute a sitting president” thing is entirely based on a fucking post-it note written by some aide trying to protect another criminal Republican president from prosecution. The fact that anyone has taken that seriously shows you how desperate they are to find any reason to keep themselves above reproach. The simple truth underpinning all of this bullshit is that they have no intention of holding the rich and powerful to account under any circumstances.
