    And? Laws don’t matter to these people.

    When there are consequences for a law being broken by these folks, report that.

    Does anyone have a comprehensive list of all the laws he’s broken / is suspected to have broken? It’d have to be so crazy long by now.

    Pretending the Trump administration hasn’t already broken the law is massive click bait.

    Also, billionaires will still be legal under the Democrats. That’s the real reason Trump got in, and the real problem.

    Returning to “the norm” is not a solution. They’ll just be another Trump eventually unless the billionaire problem is addressed.

        Well, in a perfect world, where the POTUS is immune from prosecution when executing official acts, they could seize their assets. Would it ever happen? The only way I could envision is if the vast majority of the population supports (or is indifferent to) such an action. But hey, we currently have a $200b secret police force roaming the land, so maybe there’s a chance!

        But seriously, an extreme wealth tax would be a step in the right direction.

          You’re doing a “the perfect is the enemy of the good”.

          Wealth tax, banning people from owning more than two investment properties. Have laws that put a ratio on the highest paid in companies to the lowest paid.

          “It’s too difficult and politicians are too complicit already, so don’t complain” just isn’t a good contribution. You either support that billionaires are a problem or you don’t.

    When people break the law, they are punished, right?..right? Is that just another fairy tale like Santa Claus and the tooth fairy?
