How many times have we heard that?
And nobody argues with that.
But, he does not have a right to try and bribe election officials or to threaten elected representatives of the people or to attempt election fraud.
What he is doing is criminal. There is no question about it. The only issue is that no one will hold him accountable.
If we had a Justice Department worth its salt, they would issue a restraining order against him and enforce it with a huge fine if necessary. They could also issue a restraining order on Twitter if they continue to permit tweets that are false and inflame angry voters. They should not publish the tweets of the President of the United States if he continues to flaunt and break the rules.
Otherwise, he is above the law.
