Thanks for your explanation, Ferrite. I see where you are coming from although I would still take issue with the analogy. First because the US Presidential electoral system is a fundraising slugfest ..so to be in it you have to do it. Secondly its not Trump’s fault that his supporters perceive the relentless flow of impeachment, accusations and arraignments as victimisation and the weaponisation of institutions that should be impartial. That is also how I see it.
Yes but the difference you’ve overlooked is that Trump has actively sought donations to his legal fund, not just to campaign funds.
Also, if you think that a man who has made a career out of breaking rules is now being victimised by finally getting his comeuppance, then I’m afraid I don’t know how to help you. There’s none so blind as those who will not see.
