          Or, in short: We of Trump World only care about the law when it applies to others, or when we can use it against others, or when we can use it to take advantage of you because we have more power or more lawyers or more money for lawyers. Not rule of law, but law as our cudgel.

          Obviously Nielsen should resign. She’s willfully ignorant and following her own agenda. Get out already.
