It’s insanity on the face of it. Many a reasonable person would look at this and think, “America is not playing with a full deck.” A person can still run for office—for POTUS even—with a criminal record. Not just pending a verdict, but a convicted felon.
I’m sure if I read up on this, I’d find that some line of logic exists here, but in the current situation, with the current person in question, it’s insanity. Trump is using the system he has designs on destroying to run for an office for which he has no qualifications, and for which he has further disqualified himself by his abominable behavior over a lifetime, but especially the last 9 years.
He’s cultivated and bamboozled millions of enablers, he’s taken up and wasted everyone’s time with his antics and his ugly persona, and he’s now a convicted felon awaiting sentencing. With three more cases pending! Yet it’s still full steam ahead to November, where it is likely he’ll be the Republican nominee for President, unless he finally implodes in the meantime.
There are probably other words that capture the essence of this endless cascade of contaminated effluence, but I’m sticking with insanity for now.
