I agree that Trump doesn't care about the fentanyl issue. If he did, he'd be ending the war on drugs.

I would like to point out, Ross Ulbricht was sentenced for running a website, to double life plus 40 years in prison without possibility of parole. It was a bullshit sentence that came at the end of a trial of questionable integrity. The fact that neither Obama or Biden pardoned him is one more embarrassment for the Democrats.

"Sir I did not bring in tons of cocaine across the border, I only drove a boat". Is essentially your argument.

Now I'm not against what the silk road was initially supposed to be, but this guy took it to a whole new level of fucked.

I think the argument is more, "Sir, I'm the manager at this Walmart and I have no idea what these people were exchanging amongst themselves in the back aisle."

Either way, double life + 40 years is a bullshit sentence for what this is.

Sure, youre the owner of walmart though, with regulations.

And then you call next door to find a hitman to get rid of some of your problems, and get caught trying to murder people with money.
