Justice in America

Now that Donald Trump has been indicted for hoarding classified documents and threatening our National Security, we might celebrate the fact that Justice is blind in America.  Of course, we know that is not true.

Had any other individual ignored and broken Federal laws over the past two years, they would already be convicted and imprisoned.  Neither would they have benefited from an outpouring of support from Republican politicians across the country who now blame the indictment on President Biden, not on Donald Trump.

Justice in America is relative.  If one is rich, white and well-connected, they just might avoid prosecution.  Donald Trump has legions of devoted followers, including the Speaker of the House and many powerful Republican Congress members.  Will Justice prevail?  Time will tell but I have faith in Jack Smith and his team.
