Comparing presidential administrations by arrests and convictions: A warning for Trump appointees
Since 1965
Democrats (25 years in power):
3 indictments
1 conviction
1 prison sentence.
Republicans (28 years in power):
120 indictments
89 convictions
34 prison sentences.
So if you are Left leaning, the message is clear. Democrats good, Republicans bad.
But if you live in the real world, a world that saw the likes of someone like Charley Rangel in Congress who was found guilty of 11 of 13 ethical violations escape justice, (and when they use the word ethical they are really talking about stuff like not paying taxes which would land anyone else in jail), then you have to sit and wonder. Do the democrats own the Swamp and court system?
Come to think of it, do you know of any lawyers who are conservatives? Looking at donations to political parties, lawyers give about all their money to the DNC.
Why do lawyers so strongly support Dems?
Is there an ethical and justice crisis in the US when it comes to partisan politics, or is the democrat party really this angelic, as their cool aid drinking groupies say they are?
