People already think prosecuting Trump is political (which is dumb he clearly broke tons of laws) and it will cause problems even with normies if it looks like he's being railroaded.

Yes, they have let the normalisation get embedded, even seemingly invited it. That is a big part of the problem. You're this 🤏 far away from the powerful American fascist movement taking the reigns of federal govt. And the Dems are basically saying "there is fuck all we, the US govt can do about it"
