Here, Scottish economist and philosopher Adam Smith presents one reason that guilty people need to be punished for their crimes.
250 years later, the United States faces this dilemma: Either try, convict, and incarcerate Donald Trump for the numerous felonies he committed since leaving office following his loss of the 2020 election, or resign yourself to the fact that you live in a country in which rule of law if meaningless, whose president is free to do anything he wishes with total impunity.
A couple of facts, for those who still put a value of the truth:
Trump has had little to nothing to do with work requirements and government sponsored supplemental nutrition, and
More Trump voters every day are regretting their choices.
Good question John. Thanks for asking. A partial answer lies below.
What this British fellow fails to understand is that here in America, Trump supporters:
-
- Think it’s great that Trump’s cabinet is full for Fox News “journalists” and that we’ve renamed a federal government department without the approval of congress,
- Don’t know that the war in Iran is illegal, i.e., that it’s a collection of war crimes,
- Don’t understand that costs, financially and militarily, of waging the war, and
- Believe that either we’ve won the war or that it’s going smoothly under Trump’s excellent supervision.
Their standard of truth is: If Trump says it, it’s true. If it’s unflattering to Trump, it’s a lie, cooked up by a radical left communist who hates America. Critical thinking is for woke sissies.
