Obviously people who follow him are massive bell ends, but they still matter and they still vote. America’s democracy is far from perfect, and has definitely struggled to cope over the past few years, but it put him in the most powerful position in the world for four years and despite all the evidence, enough people are still supporting him that a second term still can’t be ruled out.

He’s hardly the first rich American to escape justice if he continues to do so. Rich folk in America have literally gotten away with murder. (OJ for one)

Those fines are insultingly small. But putting him in jail would only make him more of a martyr. The law is still struggling to cope with this man.
