(2,893 posts)Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that, for instance, LBJ should be remembered as the greatest president since FDR. He put the screws the the Dixiecrats and forced through the greatest civil rights legislation in history. He CREATED MEDICARE ffs.
And he is remembered for escalating Vietnam.
That has not one thing to do with whether he was a democrat or not. It has to do with the fact that the political expediencies, in his estimation, demanded that he stay the course in Vietnam.
How hard is this?
The political expediencies militate toward nonprosecution of former presidents.
Oh. I did not miss: "and absence of evidence." I'm sure that was just careless verbiage on your part.
Since your real argument is "absence of ironclad, conviction before trial evidence."
In any case, there is a pretty big gulf fixed between "Garland is declining because of absence of evidence" and "Garland is declining because he cannot prove his case, BRD, prior to trial."
But you know that. You're a sophisticated guy.
