      I still to this day don’t know how he got away with this. It was so blatant and in your face that a freshman law student could have won the case in court.

        Because no one wanted to hold him accountable, his admin literally responded to questions about this with ‘‘he’s still basically running a business’’ which, if your unaware, it’s literally illegal to do. And they admitted to it freely, and they’ve never been held accountable.

        I think it’s because he essentially commits a crime a day. If he keeps this going- the system will be so burdened by trying to build cases against him that there will never be time to actually convict him for any of them.

        And all he needs to do is bide his time until he can just pardon himself for all of it and execute those that tried to convict him.
