@Dshhh I'm pretty ok with 2 year terms for the House, and I used to think 6 years for the Senate and the impeachment provisions and 2 4 year terms for POTUS were ok, too.
Imo, the problem is, the "people" knowingly chose to elect and give power to a sociopathic narcissist felon and everyone needs to adjust not just to his corrupt rule, but also to the fact that a majority of American voters bought into his con despite all the warnings.

@Dshhh Possibly, maybe probably, even.
But the fact that they weren't aware of, or didn't believe, or didn't care about so many red flags is still problematic.
It's not like they were kept in the dark against their will by the mainstream media. They chose the dark, and preferred to believe in his dont pay attention to your eyes and ears shtick and trusted him with the Presidency for whatever reason, be it laziness, a desire to see others suffer, or a selfish hope for a piece of the action in the short term.
I'd love to think that Trump voters are not irrevocably "deplorable" and that they may come to their senses and give enough of a $$$$ about humanity or at least their children, but I can't say I can ever see trusting them after all this time.
Why should pardoning Maxwell be all that different from other pardons he issued for favors, money or advantage?
What's that different from the "perfect" Zelensky phone call?, the Quatari jet, the I just need x votes, or Russia are you listening?
I get that Pedophilia may be a little different, but Trump's connections with it and the contempt he has for women, young girls, losers, and weaklings, and anyone else he can get away with exploiting are not new, nor do I expect there's a smoking gun that hasnt already been disposed of.

@Dshhh I think you are correct, even though if you actually force yourself to listen to him regardless of his demented gibberish, he told them what he wanted to do and [is now] doing…
Did they just miss it, not believe he actually would, or didn’t care if he did??? And which of those awful choices is the worst???
