Nixon got popped for a silly, stupid, minor "crime", when his war crimes would have gotten him executed at Nuremberg. The same is true with many other Presidents who have had their real sins glossed over or totally ignored. America doesn't like to have its warts and moles revealed by going after the grievous offenses its "leaders" have committed. The duopoly has produced a stream of unconvicted felons. Everyone of any party that, for example, voted for and supported the illegal and catastrophic Iraq invasion is a traitor to the Constitution and a war criminal, including Biden, Ms Clinton and the entire Bush league. Yet, here we are talking about vague charges of influence peddling.
Fritz Perls famously said that in the world there are three levels of "shit"; chicken shit, bull shit and elephant shit. We are painting the walls with chicken shit while we wallow in the elephant kind.
