    You think all federal charges just disappear every time there is a new administration?

      No, I’m not actually suggesting the ridiculous strawman you’ve just constructed. Of course plenty of prosecutions have continued through more than one administration. That said…

      Holy fucking shit, are you actually suggesting that Trump wouldn’t direct his corrupt-ass DoJ to immediately drop the case against Gaetz? Is that actually how far in denial the “Um, actually, just charge him lol” camp is now? That they think if Biden charges him now, Trump will see to completion the federal prosecution of one of his cronies who he tried to nominate as the head of the DoJ? That’s the argument you’re running with? If so, then I’m done here, because that’s a delusion well beyond anything that’s worth anyone’s time.
