Interesting.

When a rich man is sentenced to prison, and then actually has to go to prison, it's called a "legal loophole".

My first thought was "So we call 'following the law' a loophole now?"

If the law meant a fucking thing, he would have been in prison decades ago.

In a word: Garland.

In two words: Merrick Garland

In three words: fucking Merrick Garland

In four words: fucking Merrick "Slowclown" Garland
