Tucker Carlson on Trump

In this video, Tucker Carlson asks why Trump’s detractors hate him so deeply.

He says, in summary, that it’s because Trump says what he thinks, that he will not be controlled, and things change as a result.

This is a blend of pabulum and pure excrement.

My answer, and I think I speak for most Americans, is that:

a) Like all citizens, Trump has the right to say whatever he wants as long as the act of speaking itself doesn’t constitute crime, which it often does, e.g., incitement to commit violence, obstructing justice, etc.

b) More to the point, we deeply resent that U.S. politics is largely driven by a pathological liar and sociopathic criminal. We simply need to bring him to trial under the four indictments that have been handed up, convict him, and remove him from civil society.

Will this restore our nation to where it was 10 years ago?  Of course not.  But it’s the first step.

We mustn’t normalize criminal behavior, just because it appeals to a group of hateful idiots.
