we’ve had the same politicians for 30+ years
No, that's really not true. tRump hasn't been a politician for 30 years, and during his first term he was kept within the law by his various chiefs of staff, attorneys general, and other cabinet appointees.
What we have now, in tRump unbound, is unprecedented.
When, before, did we have a private federal police force who doesn't wear ID, who drags citizens out in the middle of the night and arrests them?
When, before, did we have said people moved over state lines too fast for the due process of law to respond?
When, before, did we have tariffs switched on & off like a bored TV watcher flipping channels?
When, before, did we have a president giving direct orders to the DOJ? And doing it over social media no less?
"We can't delay any longer, it's killing our reputation and credibility," Trump wrote in the message. "They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!"
When, before, did we have a president demanding to be reimbursed $230 million for legal fees paid for by his political action committees? Without even showing the receipts??
I could go on; this is just a few items off the top of my head.
