Turning a blind eye IS a issue on both sides.. There are many examples of this. What people should have learned from the Trump presidency is the current state of politics is a complete and utter joke. People can sit back and bash both sides falling into the trap like they want you to, but really what the public should be doing is pushing for reform.Pumaxcs wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 9:34 pmTurning a blind eye to any wrongdoing is not a political thing, it's a republican thing. If someone needs to be held accountable to prove that they mean what they say then it should be done. Going from "You can't prosecute a sitting president" to "Why prosecute him, he's not the president anymore" sets an absolutely terrible precedent. We are just saying out loud a president can do whatever they want, then once they are done doing it, it no longer matters anyway?
Just like many times a loophole is found, exploited for themselves, then right before an election they close those loopholes. One of those being how many Executive Orders were signed to have things passed short-term instead of going through the Senate for a bill/law and why Biden will be allowed to make the same kind of orders or undo because they are specific to the Executive branch.
EO's have been used since the beginning of time and by both parties, this isn't something that Trump started exploiting after years of inactivity.
