Or, maybe normal people think criminals should go to jail. No matter what color their jersey is.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If anything, he'll be treated with less deference than Trump.
(To clarify) from Dems because there's no giant cult of following, the appearance of jailing political opponents, or the office of the presidency to contend with.
It's a hell of a lot easier to deal with one of your own. Which is why the GOP (top to bottom) should be handling their corruption problems instead of sitting on the fence and occasionally falling to either side.
No. Democrats will show greater deference to Trump because they're useless at opposing Republicans.
Every republican is so vain they think the song is about them.
Why would Hunter Biden do this?
why would Hunter Biden’s penis do this?
Why would Hunter Biden's penis do this with his laptop?
My Halloween costumes gonna involve a kilt, french beret, and a laptop attached to bagpipes

Oh. Well he’s a fucking idiot with the education of a third grader. Of course he’s going to say batshit crazy things. He can’t hold a real job so he’s got to entertain the other dumb as rocks idiots out there that love batshit crazy. That’s how dude makes his bread.
I mean it’s pretty easy to punch a semi truck hole in this dude’s logic. Not just only on how none of what he said made one lick of sense. But also on, dude has a financial incentive to stir pot and the crazier the better. It’s the Jerry Springer effect.
The folks who eat this shit aren’t going to be reasonable thinking folks, so there’s not a giving them logic to change their minds. They just love conspiracy and thinking that the world is against them. Because that’s easier than accepting their own failures in life. Kirk supports that internal logic and gives them comfort. That’s why they love his bullshit.
That's the thing about this kind of conspiracy thinking. Regardless of the facts of the case you can always say they're faking impartiality with a prosecution or biased if they choose not to prosecute, or giving a sweetheart deal if there's a plea deal.
actual impartiality will have the appearance of impartiality every single time, you screaming chimps.. and yes, your Baby Idol gets spanked even harder now because we're mad.. cry me a river..
Try and trick us into thinking theyll apply the law equally by applying the law equally will they? What devious scum.
Why not fuck this guy? Why are people defending him? If they're fucked it's free game to clown on em.
What, is this one of those days that ends in a “-y”?
I love the Americanized definition of jihad.
LOL. Of course they do.
