      It’s almost like a member of Trump’s cabinet was sentenced to prison for doing that exact thing between Trump’s 2016 election and taking office.

        Yeah but for people to know that would require actually understanding the impeachment proceeding and prior/subsequent investigations.

        I think we all know how that went.

            True, haven’t thought about Trump not being part of the government yet. I would hope some restrictions would apply if Musk becomes part of it (conflict of interest wise)
