It doesn't have to pass right away... it only has to make Trumpers defend against it; to explain to voters why it's wrong.

This shouldn't be necessary in the United States of America.

But a group of fascists has made it come down to this.

The MAGA neo-monarchists will be horribly upset about this.

This is and will always be necessary in EVERY COUNTRY.

The list of corrupt US presidents is very, very long. The period from 1932 to 1968 was an anomaly, not the norm. The corruption started with Monroe (I'm not counting the earlier 3 slaveowners ONLY because being a slave-owning dirtbag wasn't considered corrupt back then, even though it's obviously incredibly evil), and continued until the brief pause with Lincoln, then resumed unabated until FDR. Since 1968, the "mostly not corrupt" list is only Carter, Obama, and Biden.

And I still maintain that if Nixon, Reagan, Bush I, and Shrubby had been prosecuted, T---p would never have even considered running.

What we REALLY need is a 4th branch of the federal government - a branch that exists only to prosecute corruption in the others, a branch that would have no power over ordinary citizens, but would go after corrupt elected officials, political appointees, and judges at all levels of government.

How would one ensure that such a branch is itself not corrupted by partisanship, bribery etc?

Why, we'd stock it ONLY with Republicans!
