    Time was we would kill traitors. If this is treason, then we should kill him. One person is closer than anyone else to him right now. They could stop all of this.

      Time was you would venerate traitors and call them “founding fathers”. Different strokes.

        Hardly an apt comparison.

          Fair I suppose. They were far more lethal per capita than the dickheads these days.

      Nobody in US political leadership wants to set the precedent of facing legal consequences for their actions while in power.

        Sounds like First-past-the-post voting doesn’t represent the people accurately.

        Electoral Reform Videos

        First Past The Post voting (What most states use now)

        Videos on alternative electoral systems

        STAR voting

        Alternative vote

        Ranked Choice voting

        Range Voting

        Single Transferable Vote

        Mixed Member Proportional representation

          Electoral methods are important and FPTP is an atrociously bad method for a representative election, but the US is beyond that. You can’t vote away this level of corruption without first wielding real worker power outside of the electoral system. Reform is a last resort for the corrupt.
