This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Jack Smith says he stands by his decision to bring charges against Trump in the classified documents case. "If asked whether to prosecute a former President based on the same facts today, I would do so regardless of whether that President was a Republican or a Democrat."

Sometimes all it takes is a change of perspective. Instead of saying, “I failed,” try saying, “I learned something I didn’t know before.” Not everything that goes wrong is a step backwards. Sometimes it’s simply a lesson that helps us take the next step forward.
