SCOTUS:

Obviously our liberal "friends" have never read the constitution. It clearly states that anything Trump or his family does is constitutional.

If the law is not enforced it's no different than there being no law, choosing not to enforce the law or delay enforcement because the perpetrator is wealthy or politically connected happens in oligarchy not democracy.

Didn't stop Trump when he talked with Netanyahu during his visit... Why would the rest of his family think they're any different?

According to Wikipedia, only 2 people have ever been charged under the act in over 200 years and neither was convicted, so it's not really a law at that point

So does the crown prefer axes or cordless reciprocating saws for body disposal?
