Curious. Support application of laws to everyone, including presidents. Resist fascism. "Authoritarianism substitutes the rule of law for rule by the lawless."

Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.
