“That is, once you’re in charge and you get to dictate who the law applies to, you’re in a very slippery slope, and slippery slopes are real, by the way,” Ravikant said.

“If you were to actually look at the charges that were brought against Trump — and I actually read them quite carefully — these were really trumped up. They were really made up,” Ravikant continued.

“You violate the statute of limitations, you try to drum things up into a felony when there was no evidence of such, it was a miscategorization of ‘business expenses.’ When you have complex business dealings like I do and like many people do, you can always find something,” he added.

Ravikant elaborated:

It’s this selective prosecution, it’s a selective persecution that allows them to get away with this. And a lot of the progressive DA movement that comes out of George Soros and others is based on this understanding that, “Hey, actually, we can choose whether or not to prosecute certain people, and these are elected offices that are either in territory where the voters are really favorable to us or they’re really cheap to run, because there’s no organized opposition. So let’s just organize and take over prosecution.”

That’s what happened in San Francisco. If you want the case against Kamala Harris, it’s the fact that she was DA in San Francisco and San Francisco’s a mess. And, in fact, afterwards she advocated for [Los Angeles County District Attorney] George Gascón, who’s ]the guy destroying LA, through basically not prosecuting criminals and going after business owners. So this this selective prosecution thing is a disaster.

“You can take a deep blue or deep red state, you can take a deep blue or deep red jury, and you can basically creatively interpret these infinite laws that we have to find anybody guilty of a crime,” Ravikant explained.
