    You may be right. But if the judge said he “shouldn’t simply be treated like everyone else” then that would basically guarantee that his rulings would be overturned on appeal. Our SCOTUS is waiting for the judge to slip up like that.

    In our legal system, the only way to hold Trump accountable is to treat him like everyone else. That’s why everyone is playing it by the books.

      @ZoopZeZoop is right, but also a little bit wrong. Trump’s violations endanger people’s lives in a way few others have, but there is precedent.

      Specifically, they need to be treating Trump like the mafia boss that he is.
