How is former president of the US Donald Trump still free when a lot of the accomplices in things he has been indicted for are already in jail and or prison except him?

i think it's really pretty simple. if you're rich and powerful, you get to do whatever the fuck you want. rules are for keeping the less powerful in line.

this didn't used to be quite so obvious, but it was something Trump definitely understood. one of the things his fans were saying was that an "outsider" like trump would expose the corruption in washington. and he certainly has. i don't think they meant he'd expose it by participating in it, but he's certainly not the only one taking advantage of this "rule"

If you look at everything a politician does and think "How does this get them more money or power?" then things make more sense. There are a few exceptions but roll around with the pigs long enough and they get muddy too.
