People are under a serious misconception that laws, rules, regulations, traditions, norms will be applicable during a 2nd ------- presidency.

The Supreme Court has explicitly stated that anything ------- chooses to do is legal. Full Stop. The law WILL NOT apply to anything he does.

People seem to have a deficit of imagination in that regards.

And there will be nothing to stop him. In fact, try and name someone or some agency that could.

You all are asking for this.
