Remember almost a week ago when we were all joking that the next thing they'd say is "A crime is not a crime"? Remember when that was a funny joke? It's not funny anymore.

[thatguywhowearsblack]

Don't worry Donald, soon a life sentence won't be a life sentence and prison won't be prison.

[gwen]

What about the citizens that elected you Congress where is your loyalty to the American people???? Potecting trump at this time is clear that you are failing in your duty to protect the people!!!

[lindaliestman]

Donald Trump needs to resign and beg for the mercy of the legal system and the American people! Like that could happen.
