“But Hillary!”
Today, the incarnate god of tens of millions of Americans who are allowed to vote spoke to his people from the throne room by way of retweeting this, from one of his most prominent legal advocates:
President Trump @realDonaldTrump is a genuinely good man. He does not really like to fire people. I bet he dislikes putting people in jail, especially “Republicans.”
He gave @BrianKempGA & @GaSecofState every chance to get it right. They refused. They will soon be going to jail. pic.twitter.com/7PMBLc8L2N

Go ahead, Mark Levin, Dennis Prager, Ben Shapiro, Roger Kimball, Rush Limbaugh, et al. Justify this. Parse this with ninety-dimensional chess bullcrap. Explain it away with, “At least Trump loves America.” Tell me he was the best choice for this moment, the necessary choice, the MAGA choice, or even the “But Hillary!” choice.
Then take a moment to consider that in politics, that old retail adage, “You break it, you bought it,” doesn’t work. On the contrary, in this case, you broke it, but millions of your fellow Americans, as well as their innocent children and grandchildren, will have to pay for it for the rest of their lives, you gaggle of fraudulent profiteering bootlickers.
(Sorry, my wife hates it when I am reduced to name-calling, but in this case my defense is that I am merely using the only accurate descriptor the English language provides.)
