Here’s the justice math:

  • Poor person wrongs a poor person = whatever, let the police figure it out and maybe they’ll randomly get justice, the rich don’t care
  • Poor person wrongs a rich person = they’re fucked and buried by the justice system
  • Rich person wrongs a poor person = slap on the wrist, and only because the poor person wasted a lot of money to get there
  • Rich person wrongs multiple rich people = Justice actually gets served because the rich pour all of their resources to get them there (see Bernie Madoff, Elizabeth Holmes, etc.)

Hell, the rich will even put up with some other rich person’s bullshit, as long as they are useful in some other capacity. This is Trump, but Trump has outlived his usefulness, so he’s getting thrown to the wolves.
