Subject: Re: 18 USC 241 Intent
If in an alternative timeline TFG had ridden the escalator down to declare his candidacy as a D instead of an R (presumably while wearing a blue MAGA cap) - I see no empiric reason why the surviving D leadership would over the ensuing six years not have behaved in the same way that the R leadership has done.

It may be that Ds, as a group, are marginally less venal than Rs. But the love of power over years relentlessly selects the behavior we have seen.

Since 1968 Democrat Admins have had 3 criminal indictments, 1 conviction, 1 prison sentence

Since 1968 Republican Admins Have had 120 criminal indictments, 89 convictions, 34 prison sentences

Dems tend not to have as corrupt admins as Republicans.
