Consequences loom for Trump, other GOP scofflaws

Donald Trump once said that he “could stand in the middle of New York’s 5th Avenue and shoot someone and never lose a vote.” As far as today’s Republican Party is concerned he’s probably right. Now however the “chickens may be coming home to roost,” as they say. The Republicans are certainly displaying contempt for this nation’s laws these days with Justice Clarence Thomas displaying his own thoughtless and illegal acts toward revealing gifts and monetary benefits that he received from a GOP megadonor over the last 20 years. All with no strings attached of course.

The Republicans are screaming politics and are busily “investigating” everyone that doesn’t wear a MAGA hat. I’m sure that they aren’t the only wealthy people who are, shall we say “reluctant” to be truthful Democrats included.

But Trump is a special case. It’s the way the man has always lived. He’s a morally bankrupt human being and up to now he’s always gotten away with it because of his wealth and power. He and companies he’s been involved with have been sued more than 3,500 times according to USA Today. He deserves everything he gets from his legal entanglements and maybe for once, justice for all will actually be true.
