Then please enlighten my ingnorance. When it comes to spending actual jail time in the cell, what really is the difference between Trump and Hillary?
I mention jail time because it is a data point that can't be talked around politicially. Either you were convicted with enough evidence to go to jail or you haven't. There is no ambiquity...its a binary one or a zero. And the justice sytem for Trump is and will be the same justice system that Hillary and the rest of them operate in.
By this metric, If Trump is a law abiding citizen, then so was Al Capone, whose only misbehaviour consisted of making half a dozen mistakes in filing his taxes.
When you abandon reason in favour of stupid and irrelevant metrics, you can show any two people to be equivalent in their criminality; Which is great if you only want to claim that "Hillary is just as bad as Trump", but makes you look a right tit when you realise you just "proved" that Trump is just as bad as Al Capone (a claim that is also FAR better supported by the ancillary evidence that your daft metric discards, btw).
