It's not our gigantic GNP or huge stockpile of nuclear weapons that distinguish America from tinpot dictatorships and banana republics the world around.

Rather, it's an impartial judiciary, incorruptible prosecuting attorney's offices, and a robust rule of law that make us admirable among nations.  We don't always live up to those lofty ideals, but at least we strive for them.

What's clear is that Trump has no respect for -- in fact, he despises and loathes -- these bedrock qualities that  really do make America great.  

What's also obvious is that it's only his "honeymoon" period that's been saving him and many of his cronies from investigation and impeachment.  Far too many of his appointees are cast in his same mold, and Price is revealing himself to be one of those out to gorge himself at the public trough.  

But Trump's been "given the chance" his supporters begged for.  And now, his honeymoon is over.  For him and for his cabal, judgment day is just around the corner.
