What if it were Clinton

I am sure that if it were President Clinton instead of President Donald Trump who was misusing the powers of the office the way it has been done, the Republican members of Congress would be up in arms and rightly so. If it would be wrong for Clinton, it is also wrong for Trump, Mr. Trump may feel he is being picked on, but it wasn't so long ago when his followers were yelling "lock her up" and he just stood there smiling. He was OK with that, although Ms. Clinton hadn't been convicted of anything in a court of law. Putin jails his opponents and the Trump crowd must think that is OK.
