Well, there are so many Presidents in American history that got away with all their crimes, it really is kind of surreal to see one caught on something so trivial. A real "Al Capone caught by the IRS instead of being a mobster" moment.
He’s caught on a bunch of stuff. This is just the first one to get through trial because of the delay tactics of the judge he appointed in one and the delay tactics of the Supreme Court in another and delays associated with poor judgement in the private lives of the prosecution in another triggering delays.
Oh, yes, I agree that he was terminally stupid on how blatant he acted, both in this and the other charges against him. It is just funny to me how stuff like Watergate and Iran-Contra were never really prosecuted in any meaningful way, and it took a doofus like Trump for it to happen, and the first ever conviction of a president being on something like paperwork and financial flows, instead of, you know, treason, abuse of power (I know those ones are still coming up, fingers crossed for a conviction) or war crimes.
Didn't Nixon get pardoned which actually stopped him from getting prosecuted?
Correct. Massive L for the country.
