People saying he’ll admit it in this spate are wrong because he’ll end up in prison. This is the only way he’d maybe admit it.
Law is unclear what happens to Trump and GOP certainly won’t impeach. But everyone knows, you pardon an asshat, and take on the title of pardoning daresay the worst criminal in history.
It’s obvious to us but aside from the Trump-can-do-no-wrong crowd, there’s a lot of oblivious people who just…don’t know.
It’s a situation I have a hard time grappling with as someone who reads the news but I’m regularly introducing people (in-person) to political events. They know about the most recent plane crash or whatever but not that Israel killed another journalist or that Trump sent a legal resident to a concentration camp. It’s wild…but following politics is kind of a hobby. There’s so much going on all the time, you can’t just passively absorb it.
In some ways I resent them but in other ways I’m jealous. Following it like I do has brought me a tiny bit of joy and a whole lot of stress.
