You’re right. I wonder if the downvoters vote that way because they don’t want to admit the US democracy is far from healthy right now.
Or maybe they think you were saying the prosecution side of it was the bad sign. Maybe you were, but I think the bad sign is that they were elected in the first place. And in Trump’s case, no one can really say at this point that he won’t be elected again.
It could be a sign of a healing democracy. If there was a regime that ruled against the interests of the people it was supposed to represent, how should it be dealt with if the people managed to get power back from them?
They’re suggesting that criminals should get a pass because of their political position. That’s why they’re getting downvoted. The “both sides are the same” shit isn’t helping.
Might be a hot take, but prosecuting the leader you elected just one election cycle ago might not be a sign of a healthy democracy?

I mean, it’s a bit of both. At the end of the day, the idea of democracy isn’t to flip flop between fascist regimes that imprison each other, right?
