When news broke of Donald Trump’s fourth indictment, his loyal supporters quickly turned to Fox News to express their unwavering support for the embattled Republican presidential candidate, who now faces a staggering 91 criminal charges.
One of those suspects was Caitlyn Jenner, who apparently felt the need to proclaim her love for the country she’s now ashamed of.
“You know, I am a proud American, I love this country,” Jenner said. “I am a child of a World War 2 veteran, I grew up a patriot, I was the first person to put up a flag of the good ole US of A, why? Cause I was so proud of this country. And I have to say, today, and watching all this come down. This is the first time I’ve ever been ashamed of my country.”
There is a problematic belief among certain Americans that a person’s political affiliation should determine their treatment under the law. This warped ideology puts Republicans on a pedestal above the law, while Democrats are expected to adhere strictly to the justice system.
Such a notion is not only unfounded but also harmful to the very foundations of our justice system. It is imperative that we reject this misguided belief and hold all individuals accountable for their actions, regardless of their political leanings.
