If that’s the label they use, that’s fair. Your amount of digging is commendable

Where have you been the last 20 years? This is literally Rob's entire schtick. And when called out on it, he whines and whines about how oppressed he is and then goes right back to doing it. You'd think at some point he would experience some personal and emotional growth but NOPE. He's brilliant and correct and perfect and anyone that disagrees with him is a "retard."

Which? Making suggestions to the president? The president invoking a federal action? Or manufacturing MyPillows?

I prefer to lead by example (not always succeeding, but trying).

Then I remembered. These are the conspiracy types Trump consults with since Nov 3rd. I'm sure a pillow manufacturer knows how to steal an election.

Suggesting that specifically to the president. If you suggest it to someone else its surely conspiracy to commit something. Terrorism or treason or whatever. Does the fact your constitution seems to allow a sitting president to do whatever the hell they want negate that?

A conspiracy requires at least two people to agree to break the law. Rumor is Trump gave the meeting little attention and wasn't receptive. Maybe the guy hadn't donated enough.
There may be a case against the MyPillow guy for trying to commit a crime. A President is immune (while in office) to some issues. ie - tax audits are on hold. Courts can force procedural compliance, like records keeping, or rule unconfirmed Cabinet members cannot give substantial orders. I believe there's a lot less immunity than Trump has claimed, but he's had Justice Secretaries who bow down to him instead of doing their jobs.
Significant criminal activity is supposed to be restrained by Congress, which hasn't worked since (R) Senators started placing party loyalty ahead of their oaths & national loyalty. This is a form of regulatory capture. If corrupt people are in charge of national prosecutions AND can block Congressional action, then the Prez can get away with anything.
Until they leave office, or are dumb enough to attack their buds in Congress.
