The U.S. Department of Justice will refocus much of its staff and resources on the “total elimination” of drug cartels and transnational criminal organizations in the U.S. while disbanding units dedicated to prosecuting white-collar crime and kleptocrats and tracking foreign efforts to influence U.S. elections.
So this is what I felt would happen as a result of Trump’s felonies. Every politician in America watched as a fellow politician’s books were put under the microscope. This is something that has not happened before and open the flood gates for corruption investigations accross the board to get brick walled by either trashing the programs that allowed it or by cutting their funding cut so much they cant keep the lights on. You think Pelosi and her husband’s wealth were accrued without insider knowledge? You think they are an anomaly? Obviously you can throw a dart blind at the republican party and hit someone with shady books but it happens on both sides. All I’m saying is the Trump trials were a catch 22 that even with the guilty verdict the results would push politicians to make changes so it couldn’t happen to them.
Edit: I’m also not saying the trial was the wrong move. It had to be done. I don’t know if i feel there wasn’t a good way to do it or if i just don’t know of a better way to handle it but through the whole thing I just felt the outcome was going to be a bullwhip response by politicians to protect themselves from sitting where Trump sat.
