    I mean it’s not hard to know what happens when accountability isn’t a thing anymore.

    Spoiler Alert: everything turns to shit.

    Why should we obey laws if our leader is a convicted felon who gets to bypass the punishment phase? Why should we ever respond to a jury summons for a sham justice system? Why should we pay taxes when our leader is a tax cheat?

    Nothing matters now.
