    FDR died in 1945. It was the law to curb him.

    Meanwhile, Strzok/Page and rest of Obama gang who used their offices at FBI/DOJ, etc. to help HRC and attack Trump were uninvestigated by this "ethics" watchdog.

    See post #31 for a detailed description of the times that the OSC dinged Obama officials for their violations of the Hatch Act.

    Meanwhile Hoosier8 can't debate the actual topic of this thread and has to resort to making gaslighting and bullshit whataboutism.

    The Hatch Act is the law.

    If you don't care about it, you don't care about rule of law.

    That is a policy Trump and a lot of his supporters follow: staunchly pretend to support the concept of the rule of law, until a law (or the constitution) gets in your way. Then, "I don't care".

    No problem. Just declare the White House a "sanctuary city" and it could be a free for all.

    Obama had two of them that evaded the law yet Democrats kept making excuses for both.

    Did they? Because I literally just provided you a link where the officials admitted and apologized for their violations.

    How did Kellyanne react? By intentionally and repeatedly continuing to violate the act.

    The Hatch Act does not apply to the President. So get a better whataboutism.

    So you are saying that the President is above the law? Funny that after all the whining about Trump.

    There have always been limitations on free speech. Grow up.
    I am saying that there are laws which explicitly, according to the letter of the law, do not apply to the President. Stop making troll arguments.

    Then how about his press secretary in 2015 when he called candidate Trump a 'carnival barker'?

    Kellyanne Conway was not the Press Secretary in 2015.
