I worry, however, that with the size and scale of the corruption of the GOP in so many of our government agencies that there will to those that slip through the cracks and don't get prosecuted. The courts will be tied up for years trying these criminals/traitors. There will be some who will be satisfied with simply having them banned from government. I want the book thrown at all of them...but I am skeptical that it will actually happen.

Prosecutors at the state level wouldn’t be bound by a get-out-of-jail-free “deal” forged in DC. As I understand it, anyway.

We'll need a five drawer file cabinet. Just the trashing he's done to the armed service will take up one drawer - from insulting Gold Star families to stabbing the troops in Syria in the back.

No, we'll need a super computer.

People have long memories. Our only redemption is to prosecute them all. At least then, we send the message that we aren't all behind him.
