No one’s right to free speech is absolute. You’re taught this in middle school. Trump should go to jail.

That being said - this is what journalism is now. All you have to do is write an article that will be shared on social media so that people can circle-jerk underneath it.

“Experts say Trump broke the law. Badly.”

Get that on the internet and watch your engagements shoot through the roof with zero effort on your part.

“Anyone paying attention knew this years ago”

“Why is he not in handcuffs already”

“Won’t matter to his supporters. You can’t talk to these people.”

Comments rolling in. Ad revenue rolling in. Media staff members high-fiving as their quarterly goals are met and they are drinking rum and cokes on the clock because how does this shit pass as a journalism gig.
