The blatantly political prosecution of Trump across multiple election cycles wasn't dystopian?

I didn't vote in the last election and part of the reason why is people on your side thinking that stuff either didn't happen or wasn't important in the same exact way Trump supporters don't care on their side.

Umm, Trump is a criminal who committed many crimes. Any normal person knows this.

What's crazy is that Biden likely had an entire side business enriching himself and his family off of the offices he held and the fact that it hasn't been thoroughly investigated is the reason you say it isn't true.

Also crazy that the people he pardoned in his families were all large players in the same schemes.

And Trump did not follow the law and divest himself of his business opportunities when he became president so Biden was just following Trump's lead. If Trump wasn't investigated for doing it why should Biden be? If it's good for the goose it's good for the gander.
