    There’s a very real and very disturbing possibility that the Democrats will choose not to prosecute the criminals, or at least not fully root out the problem, in the name of “national unity” or whatever

      Imagine if we allowed Hitler to escape, didn’t bother to prosecute him, then let him retake power a few years later?

      We have to answer to America, the World, and History, and we can’t squander our responsibility the next time.
