Why was the "assassin" arrested immediately, but the Jan. 6 coup leader is STILL free?

Hell, this guy they arrested didn't incite an angry mob to attack the US Capitol in an attempt to overthrow the government. In comparison with Trump on Jan. 6, this guy didn't do much of anything. But here he is. Arrested and charged.

But more than three and a half years after Jan. 6, we're still waiting for Trump to be arrested and the charges to be filed. We saw Jan. 6 on live TV, and then we saw the evidence and the testimony presented by the Jan. 6 bipartisan congressional committee. And STILL no arrest and no charges for Donald Trump.

Justice for all. Oh, hell ya. Except for the most dangerous, most heinous criminal of all, the lying traitor who makes Benedict Arnold and Richard Nixon look like nobodies.

"We're all equal under the law."

"Justice is blind."

What . . . a . . . crock.

43 months and counting (includes foot dragging)

Another myth that can be put to rest. "We're all equal under the law." some are just more equal.
Like that myth "no one is above the law" that has now been put to rest.

He spent time in jail and still supports the coup leader.

The guy sounded insane.
