Unfortunately, many Democratic Socialists have shown themselves to be flawed, unserious people more focused on quixotic cultural and non-economic issues than on the economic concerns weighing on many Americans. And if Democratic Socialists keep it up, the Democratic Party will not win many consequential elections.
Perhaps some nascent sense of ethics from Pirro's time as a judge and prosecutor in the 90's and early 2000's, long since buried below tons of self-interested, partisan programming, re-activated just enough to jar her back to reality, although I would not count on it.
So dead set are the Republicans on keeping Democrats out of power and enabling President Donald Trump that they will hide a potentially dying old man away and deprive four and half million people of proper Senate representation.
If Democrats continue to look good in polling for November's elections, expect Trump to continue to undermine the credibility of our system. And do not be shocked if he directs the federal government to take dubious actions in states in which results are going against his Republican sycophants.

This indictment is serious evidence of the ongoing politicization of the US Justice Department and further undercuts both the rule of law and the faith of many Americans that justice is indeed blind. The President and his enablers hope that the American people, particularly those with reach and influence, will think twice before doing or saying anything to oppose him and will even kneel down and kiss His Majesty's ring.
