63. I am old and not the sharpest crayon on the box.

However -



Billionaire oligarchs are for all practical purposes untouchable.

Not so their lackeys.

Legally going after the foot soldiers is effective.

It discourages others from committing illegal acts for their masters, knowing they will face consequences that can't be cancelled by the masters, in this case a state conviction that Trump can't pardon legally.

This is why he is putting on a show of trying to release Peters, even though he can do nothing
