    How would you consider a policeman watching a crime happen and do absolutely nothing about it?

      Very bad, very very bad.

      But I’d still hold the trial for the person who committed the crime itself before charging the police officer. But there’s also a third party here, which is the people. The people said, while the policeman was supposedly idly watching, that “yes, this criminal can [be president and] do whatever he wants”. 😐

        No one is holding a trial here. The metaphor cannot be milked forever. 8t was a bad metaphor to begin with. So stop with it.

          Great retort… Real thread killer there, bud.

          You asked me a question regarding the metaphor but this is your reply when I give you the answer. Sorry you can’t keep up. 🤷‍♂️
