So what would you do? Do you care about the weaoponizing of our judicial system to go after political enemies or the unequal application of laws? I know you will say it does not exist here.

The question shouldn't be let; it should be why? The leaders of the West are not holding him accountable. They talk a good game, something Democrats love but their actions aren't the same.

I would destroy Russia economically if I were the one calling the shots . If Putin made one single threat of military retaliation the Moscow parking lot operation would begin .

We likely won't if he gets back in the WH. He wants to redo the Constitution that's served us well for 235 years
He's all about revenge on those people and laws and rules and regulations that have stopped him from doing any damn thing he pleases
