‘Banana republic status’: US justice system ‘rapidly sliding’

The “two-tier” justice system in the United States is displaying an “effort to twist the law” and prohibit former president Donald Trump from returning to the White House, says Sky News Australia host James Morrow. “One that sees the law applied differently depending on whether you are a regular US citizen or whether your name happens to be Donald J Trump,” Mr Morrow said of the justice system. “The US is rapidly sliding towards banana republic status, what with those in power, the Biden cabal trying to jail the opposition leader, that is to say, Trump. Mr Morrow pointed out the New York Stormy Daniels hush money trial shared the same “general outline” as the now-settled Steele dossier which was found to be funded by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign. “But of course, unlike the question of whether or not Trump had it all for the pornstar, this issue had real consequences for our democracy and kicked off the whole Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, but never mind.”
