    This implies that the republicans had a good idea, which should have given you pause for thought in and of itself.

        Nepotism isn’t actually illegal (though it’d be nice if it were)

        You can’t prosecute someone based on laws you feel should exist. That’s what fascists do.

        If you have issues with this sort of thing (which happens at all levels of politics and business, not just with Trump and Biden), then you should write your representative about it and advocate for new laws to be made.

        Hell, id cosign that letter, but I wouldn’t advocate for the prosecution of someone based on laws that don’t exist, not even the Trumps (though I do happily advocate the many prosecutions underway for the things they’ve done that are genuinely illegal)

        If you can produce any evidence that they did anything illegal, then, yes, there should be an investigation into that.

            That circular reasoning. Investigations are conducted based on evidence. If there’s no evidence of illegality, then there’s no reason to investigate. You can’t just go violating somebody’s rights because you suspect something. That’s why cops have to get warrants.

        Only because he placed them into public servant governmental roles. Those are specific and unique.
