Has blanket immunity for life is completely absurd. This buffoon walks free, despite all his crimes, yet regular people are out here going to jail for no crimes.
I've got two friends going through stuff now but they don't have Trump's money, both are genuinely innocent but one lawyer told my neighbor "being innocent isn't enough, you have to be able to prove your innocent". The system protects the rich and privileged and fucks the rest of us.
