This is a very easy argument to make without resorting to political derailment, especially since it's basically a founding principle of our country (separation of powers, because we can't trust governing entities to police themselves, therefore competing and opposed government entities must effectively 'police' each other).
1. a lot of people also find that entire situation to be such incredible bullshit
2. the counterargument discredits itself when it employs the mental gymnastics needed to explain that inconsistency
OK? The fact that government doesn't police itself sucks, yes. The fact that I don't have a Lamborghini also sucks. I don't see what throwing in a Hillary Clinton dig is going to do to solve this situation or offer any kind of insight to other readers and commenters besides making people feel angry about politics.

I don't even know what you're referring to right now or how it relates to the topic.
