Trump has spent his entire career breaking various laws, getting caught, and then essentially plowing ahead unharmed.

You'll have to ask 6 and JSF. "Not Hillary" will probably be their excuse/answer.
Personally, I wouldn't need any of those items you listed - you can tell the guy is a pos just from listening to him - it seems so obvious. That's a fundamental thing I don't get about Trump voters is how they didn't smell the lying stink coming off him.
Recent fav tweet: "I like Campaign Chairmen who don’t get captured."

Parasites are a huge force in the natural world. For the most part they simply feed on their hosts. But there are a number of cases in which they exert a more insidious influence: they actually change their hosts’ behavior, in ways that benefit the parasites but damage and perhaps eventually kill their victims.
And lately I’ve been wondering if that’s what’s happening to America. How much of our political sickness is the result of a parasitic infection? What I have in mind specifically is an infestation of direct-marketing scams that exploit and reinforce political partisanship, largely on the right, basically to sell merchandise.
If this sounds absurd to you, bear with me a bit. I’m not the first person to make this suggestion – Rick Perlstein, our leading historian of modern conservatism, made basically the same argument (without the biological analogy) back in 2012 https://thebaffler.com/salvos/the-long-con and as I’ll explain, a lot of things have happened since then to reinforce his point.

Thanks Captain, I agree. And yes, the wheels of justice do turn slowly, but
as blind as she is.....she always (well, not quite always) gets her man.
Corner, meet Trump.

Trump is fucking you guys in the ass and you're asking for more:
"thank you sir, may I have another."
"I alone can fix it." HA!
Meanwhile, the rich get richer while you guys bend over and take it, without
lubrication.
As Bob Dylan would sing: "How does it feel?"
Worst president...
Nah, Trump took sole possession of that long ago and reasserts it on a daily basis. Champion Scumbag and Fuck-up in Chief.

What gets me Shiny is so many of us knew this sh*t upfront. Unfortunately, as they say, "the wheels of Justice turn slowly." I get how pro-Russians will still defend Trump because Disruption and Agitation are the new warfare - something else that is obvious - but the US citizens that are still following and defending that piece of slime... unreachables.
He hired "the best" criminals and he was even wrong about that - they sucked!

One holdout juror spared Paul Manafort from a full conviction
“We all tried to convince her to look at the paper trail,” Duncan said. “We laid it out in front of her again and again, and she still said that she had a reasonable doubt. That’s the way the jury worked. We didn’t want to be hung, so we tried for an extended period of time to convince her.”
“But in the end,” Duncan said, “she held out, and that’s why we have 10 counts they did not get a verdict.”

Probe of U.S. Interior Secretary Zinke's conduct referred to DOJ
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Interior Department’s acting inspector general has referred a probe into Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke’s conduct to the Justice Department for further investigation, media reports said on Tuesday, citing unnamed sources.
Referring a probe to the Justice Department means it will explore whether evidence warrants a criminal investigation. Mary Kendall, the acting inspector general of the Interior Department, is conducting at least three probes into Zinke’s conduct, but it was not clear which one had been sent to the Justice Department, the Washington Post said.
Among other investigations, Kendall is probing Zinke’s involvement in a Montana land deal and a decision not to grant two tribes approval to run a casino in Connecticut.
