Given that the President is a convicted felon who maintains that what he did was fine, and that he has pardoned thousands of unrepentant criminals, and that the vast majority of his party enthusiastically endorsed all this, I would say "pro-crime" is an understatement.
on a daily basis the current US president commits treason against the people of the united states, which im pretty sure even presidential immunity doesnt protect against.
Just one of the shady dealings with foreign monarchies, laudering their bribes directly to the president thru billion dollar purchases of worthless crypto "assets" ala world liberty financial; should land the president and his entire family in capital punishment
This admin is pro-money. Anything and everything can be bought. Pardons, contracts, legal outcomes, you name it. Bribe trump and he'll do whatever you ask.
> here in America, sometimes CEOs get shot as well
No, they don't. The UnitedHealth dude who got shot had a CEO title, but Thompson was ultimately a middle manager.
The actual CEO of UnitedHealth Group–the one who signs off on its financial statements and fields quarterly calls–and the billionaire owners were fine.
This is just more than a little fucked up... I think we've "limited" liability way too much in terms of corporations... it's the investors that are meant to be protected, executives and board members are not meant to be immune. And I do think in the worst cases, the death penalty should be on the table.
edit: to be clear, IMO, corporate power is an expression of govt power, which should be minimized.

The administration seems to be pro-crime, which is very problematic.

_strongly_ pro-crime

don't forget Trump's 90 minute call w/ Putin on the 4th of July a few days ago

When you view it through the lens of Graft First, everything makes sense. All the seeming stupidity, ineptitude, and hypocrisy is just to make a buck.
Governing doesn't even appear to be an afterthought.
I still haven't figured out how he's profiting from Trump Accounts yet. Kick backs I suppose.
The stupidity and ineptitude is still real. These are a gang of nepo-babies who have mastered the art of failing up.

Pro rich people crimes. They remain very much against poor people who break the law.
Let's be honest, poor people in general.
To be poor is a crime.
I don't think this quite captures it. The "Dual State" concept seems much more on point. https://www.thefunsinthefight.com/p/welcome-to-the-dual-stat...

In Communist China they would be shot
They also disappear you for selling books critical of the Party, so it's a two edged katana.

Yes, and so does trump's America.

Hey, here in America, sometimes CEOs get shot as well.
not by the state, however. important distinction.
Now that justice by official channels is closed, one wonders if a grieving parent will seek it out by unofficial means
Parents could file a class action? RICO? How is this any different from organized crime?
rarely
