> disobeyed all political conventions
One can't disobey "conventions". One disobey laws, and in particular, laws that are enforced, and the breaking of which carry real threats to their freedom.
Also, you can't be disobeying if you're the boss and decide who gets tried and who doesn't. So since DJT has been president he can't disobey no more.
Not sure if your comment was ironic; if yes, fine, if not, you're very wrong.
- am_i_down 10y ago> One can't disobey "conventions" You are playing a semantics game. Replace disobey with ignore, and the intent is the same. > you can't be disobeying if you're the boss and decide who gets tried and who doesn't The United States is a constitutional democracy, not a fascist regime. In the past, presidents have indeed disobeyed, and one was consequently impeached.
