I'd say the inability of the justice system to deal with him is causing even more damage.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
Checks and balances seem unchecked and hardly balanced.
I didn't expect this tiger to be so toothless.
The unwillingness. They absolutely do have the ability.
I guess you're new here. Let me explain: the rich aren't like you and me.
The 1% refusal to hold Trump accountable is causing the damage
Because then the other 1%'ers are in danger too.
Protecting each other from the law is essential to their existence.
He's a fantastic tool for deception and distraction. Those in control are literally rewriting our laws and robbing the coffers while the test of the country watches Trump do his monkey dance or ignores all media to avoid the monkey dance which equals to the same results: Your head in the sand.
No shit.
Trump Highlights High Court's Low Standards
There fixed the title, now double time and get this to the newsies! I want this out before daylight.
I think you could swap standards with bar and get a few extra points
Justice was already blind, now she’s being sexually harassed. /s
“Grab her by the pussy.”

Sadly again/still relevant, hm?
I remember that unfortunately, good call ☎️
You need an expert for that?
"Person with eyes"
Working as intended.
Destabilizing the system is the point. Trump is just the tool.
Yet another thing trump has done that shows how obviously broken our system is.
If only anyone in charge would want to fix the clearly broken shit. Nope not even a little.

Yes, that's the idea
