Interest of Fairness

Most Americans used to be interested in "fair play". Too many folks now seem solely interested in taking down Donald Trump, no matter what. Do you not think the former President did not follow the course of action suggested by his lawyers throughout his career and personal dealings? Do you imagine that Donald himself was orchestrating actions when he was dealing with the toughest people in the construction trades, in New York, where they were sometimes mob-connected? No, Trump always vetted his actions through attorneys and was especially careful on taxes, following precisely what Certified Public Accountants and lawyers told him to do. Michael Cohen was not as he has been termed a "fixer", but someone who had passed the bar in New York and was presumed by Trump to be giving him sound legal advice. If the former President followed what he believed was within the law because his attorney directed is actions, then hold the law professional to account and not the client who was steered wrong by a lawyer who turned out to be a criminal.  It is absolutely unfair to use massive government resources over many years to find or manufacture a crime to pin on a person. That process is an old Soviet one that is un-American to the core.
