Let's not gloss over something important, Trump did try to get Hillary locked up. He had his justice department investigate her and the Clinton foundation both. They couldn't find evidence of crimes, so Hillary remains free.

Where Trump backed down was not going extra-judicial. But let's not let him off the hook, he tried, he's a despot.

He also hadn’t replaced the entire Justice department with MAGA lackeys like he did the Supreme Court and federal court system.

And his cronies are still harping on it. There are people in positions of power, with money and influence, who are still trying to do everything to put Fuckface 45's "enemies" away.

The coup marches on.
