"Over time, I've realized that no matter how bad a Democrat politician is, you'll always see worse." Do you realize that we say the same thing about R's? When you do, maybe we can agree that it's been all downhill since some date.

>> why nobody has charged him with this crime after he left officeNot saying it was horrible, only that it was in an effort to deny another person justice.The State Bar of Arkansas did disbar him, taking his license to practice law, and he did lose 3/4 million to the person whose justice was denied.It was a crime, and he was punished for it. The adequacy of the punishment is subject to debate. I thought he was a terrible president until I saw Obama. Over time, I've realized that no matter how bad a Democrat politician is, you'll always see worse. Disbarment and fees are not punishment, but collateral damage for such a "serious" crime. You did not explain why nobody charged Clinton with such a Very Very Serious Crime after he left his office. As for Trump, Abuse of Power, Obstruction of Congress, Breaching Trust of the People, Breaching the Oath of the Office, Damaging National Security and Interests of the Nation - of course there are not crimes at all. Only hopeless appointed by you as "leftist" like me may escalate them like that.

I thought he was a terrible president until I saw Obama. Over time, I've realized that no matter how bad a Democrat politician is, you'll always see worse. I am not going to argue about Obama, but Bill Clinton????? Clinton was a terrible president????? Wait a minute, according to you, Trump is good, because economy is good. Under Clinton economy was much better than now, and instead of running $1Trln deficit we used to have a surplus. And now you claim that Clinton was a terrible president just because he was a Democrat. The very next President ran economy to the ground at the ground at the end of his second term, but of course he was great president, because he was a Republican.
