8. Trump is the living embodiment of the 2 tiered justice system

Jun 2019

If Trump was not a rich white guy he would be in jail now.

He has raped, groped, leered at under age girls and according to one of Jeffery Epstein’s victims raped underage girls. He’s also committed tax fraud, money laundering, defrauded many a contractor, and conspired with a hostile foreign power to usurp the Presidency.

His bio is basically a rap sheet.

It sickens me that he has gotten away with all this, but it underscores that we ceased to be a nation of laws some time ago—if you can even string together an argument that we were ever a nation of laws.

If he’d been any sort of minority he would be in prison.

Bishop Swan is spot on.
