I don’t think the argument is that Martha should get a pass. The argument is why aren’t other rich white privileged assholes like her subject to the the same or worse punishments? I don’t know if the law stipulates for it at all, but to do this kind of shit as a politician with the power to manipulate markets and the violation of public trust is so much more egregious in my mind.
