You would probably be asking him to prosecute me to the highest degree the law allows.
Why would I do that? I only have a couple of objective criteria:
#1 - Don't waste taxpayer (my) money
#2 - Proportionate response and enforcement. For instance, if Tiffany participated in an armed bank robbery, or embezzled money from a keiki sports team, etc. I would like like to see her prosecuted. Or you for that matter, if you did those things. Perhaps if Tiffany had won the election, under false pretenses, it would be appropriate to prosecute. But otherwise, what's the point? Everyone knows what she did, so a trial isn't going to have much, if any effect on her future political aspirations. But, if you believe a stake through the heart rather than handcuffs and leg irons is necessary, perhaps you consider her more skilled and formidable than I do.
The moon kind of surprises me sometimes. I’ll be out at night and I’ll see a nice moon, and say, “Hey, that looks good.” Then I’ll say, “Oh sh-t, I went up there one time!” Kind of surprises me. It’s like there are two Moons, you know—the one that’s usually around, and then that one. - Michael Collins, Apollo 11 astronaut
