(63,221 posts)That is, for a guy who's trying to beat a list of charges that stretches from DC to Daytona Beach.
What a smarmy little freak! He makes Paul Ryan look like a respectable Statesman, and i thought THAT guy was the essence of smarminess not so long ago.

(10,599 posts)He knows how it works, and he knows that he will NEVER be held accountable for any crimes he may have committed.
Accountability is for the little people, not someone like him.
More and more are finally coming around to the realization that a person like TFG, won't ever face charges in the future.
I realize we all want it, and feel it's deserved, but that does not mean there's any chance of it happening.
I for one, won't be at all shocked when they commit more criminal acts in the future. Perhaps overturning or fixing an election, and getting away with it. Why shouldn't they try? No accountability before, likely means no accountability in the future.

(10,599 posts)The same people who posted here that he would be arrested back in April, are still posting about this person or that person who will be arrested in the coming months.
JUST BE PATIENT, THEY SAY.
Personally, I expect that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM, will NEVER be held accountable for a damn thing. It's just how America rolls.

(42,770 posts)FG could be speaker for at least a year.
But I do wonder if Gaetz actually asked FG. Somehow I just can't picture him being disciplined enough to show up and just sit there all night if he had to.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
