"Donald Trump has been indicted on thirty-seven federal felonies.
Most Americans view Donald Trump as an aberration, a one-off, the exception.
He’s our first “criminal president” they think, the first to have committed
crimes to get into office, while in office, or both.
Most Americans, in this regard, are wrong, and it’s a tragic statement about
both the way we teach American history in our schools and the way our corporate
media deals with past presidential crimes.
If previous Republican presidents had been held to account for their crimes
the way it appears Trump is about to be, Trump may well have not been as brazen
in everything from his violations of the Hatch Act to the Espionage Act to his
explicitly asking Vladimir Putin to intervene in the 2016 election."
Via Kevin O'Brien, who wrote "Both Nixon and Reagan committed Treason in order
to win office. Had they been prosecuted we might not have the Trump problem."
