Masking is hell, I agree. But the person you are underneath isn't guaranteed to be something that people like to be around either.

The problem with the Comey case is that Trump is publicly pressuring the DOJ and installed his former personal attorney as the prosecutor. It's reported that they did so because evidence is lacking and the former prosecutor was pushed

Because that's how the law in NY is written? I'm not really sure what you're trying to argue here, to be honest. The case played out in the legal system, a judge ruled it should go forward, and a jury convicted Trump on these

He doesn't have to be charged with them, the intention is what matters, but regardless the three points brought up were (as shown in your own lawfaremedia link): - Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) - New York Election Law § 17-152 -

Asking for past "examples" is like trying to compare apples to oranges in this scenario. My comment illustrates why this isn't comparable to another administration.

I think your comment exemplifies why people have an issue with "just regulate it" because there are endless nitpicks and carve-outs that seem arbitrary and will likely have unintended consequences. It's easy to go "then

> The “right” isn’t a single voice. I disagree. Trump, IMO, has been a cult-like leader for the GOP since 2016. And he even called for more networks to lose their licenses over "dishonesty" after this incident[0]. Not to mentio

This is an open source project that you're not obligated to use nor did you pay for it. Who is it endangering? The license also makes it clear that the authors aren't liable for any damages.
