"In a fashion familiar to observers of systemically corrupt regimes, Trump (sheltered by the Supreme Court’s assurance that he can freely engage in corruption) has made bribe solicitation an integral element of governance."
Quite an overview of Trump's lawlessness here:

I look at the massive costs of Trump's inverted "justice system," where crime is being made legal and the law abiding are deemed criminals.
