You may never be able to retire, but we should retire "law and order", "tough on crime" from our political lexicon

We have a criminal president, a criminal president who just pardons other criminals, and a criminal president who disregards what courts say and nobody does anything.

So it seems kind of silly to have politicians and media figures still using "law and order" and "tough on crime"... right?

If the media could say "*checks notes* had a good run", when exactly are they going to say that for those two meaningless items?

Which one are you getting rid of first?

Where's "law and order"? Well we moved it to a big farm upstate where it can run around and gets to play with "divine right of kings" and "spectral evidence" all day.

Sorry "tough on crime" but it's kind of silly to still have you hanging about in our political environment. Looks like you just got promoted to customer.
