    Because the executive branch doesn’t have the power to prosecute anyone. The legislature tried to impeach Trump over Jan6 but that was blocked by Republicans. The classified documents case was slow-walked by a Trump loyalist judge until he was reelected and became immune from prosecution. The law did go after the organizers and many were hauled only to be pardoned by Trump. Democrats did all the law allowed.

      You’re getting confused by the good cop bad cop routine they got going on. The bad cop slaps you and the good cop comes in an gives you and ice pack. They both want to railroad you into confessing to a crime you didn’t commit. Twenty years later they’re going to be laughing it up retired at 55 on a taxpayer funded pension, fishing together and going to each other’s kids’ wedding while you’re still in prison for a crime you didn’t commit.

      That’s what they’re doing, the good cop saying aw man he doesn’t need to be so mean, but twenty years later both parties’ politicians are incredibly wealthy and youre making less than you made in 90s in real dollars.
