I have written many pieces over the last few years about Donald Trump's criminal culpability and I've always believed that if he's never held accountable for any of it — either his shady business dealings or the numerous crimes against the Constitution that he committed while he was president — the nation may never recover. Trump's corruption is so blatant that if he gets away with all of it, it's impossible to see how there can be any more pretense of equal justice under the law.
Having said that, I've also written more than once that I'm just not optimistic.
