I'm not scared of "If they can do it to Trump, then they can do it to you"

Now,

"If they can do it to Kalief Browder, then they can do it to you"
"If they can do it to Breonna Taylor, then they can do it to you"
"If they can do it to Michael Lowe, then they can do it to you"
"If they can do it to Elijah McClain, then they can do it to you"
"If they can do it to Anthony Novak, then they can do it to you"

on the other hand.

But that's "Defund the Police" talk.

Strange, right?

Our candidates don't have skeletons in the closet.

They haven't committed crimes, nor had the appearance of committing crimes. That's why they are Democrats. They are law abiding.

Frankly I hope it does become a trend that we prosecute every Republican official that we can. From NY to CA, plus the Fed.

Hopefully there is someone right now investigating DeSantis and ready to file charges the day he became a nomination candidate.

I'm of the mind that if the crime is committed, it's irrelevant who committed it, it SHOULD be prosecuted! PERIOD! If there were evidence that Obama did what Trump did I would back that investigation/prosecution as well. PERIOD! And it's a stupid unconvincing phrase. If they can do this to X, they can do it to you too. Yes, yes they can. It's called the rule of law. If I steal classified documents I'm perfectly aware of the risk and know if caught, I can, and most likely WILL, be thrown UNDER the jail.
