a former president and current presidential candidate puts ou democracy in uncharted territory. trump is already lashing out attacking the investigators, them integrating our justice system, and calling on his supporters to protest. that s all without making an of the pleas for peace w normally expect from someone seeking to lead our nation and republicans, for the mos part, have rallied around him, echoing his claims that th legal system has bee weaponized for those of us with lon memories, no trump has littl regard for the rule of law he did not care about du process when he was calling fo the central park five to b executed before the had thei day in court he did not care about politica witch hunts when he campaigned on lock up, locking up his opponent hillary clinton, with chance of lock her up. and now it appears as if trump s refusal to live by the same rules as the rest of us may finally be catching up wit him. and if it does, the paybac will be richly deserved. it s a
