ledger

Surely, there’s a lot on this side of the ledger for the failure of the legal system, from Merrick Garland on down to line prosecutors in every jurisdiction where Trump’s crimes were committed.

On the other side of the ledger, though, is a simple truth: Americans know all about his crimes and it really does not seem to matter to some 50 percent of us.

Some wore masks of Heath Ledger’s depiction of the Joker with exaggerated bloody smiles and held signs reading, “Sexually violent predator not welcome here!!!” and “Keep our community safe from SVPs.”

Just about everything about the 2-1 loss to Greece needs to be placed in the negative half of his ledger.

Movie buffs might be reminded of one of the final lines Heath Ledger’s Joker delivered to Batman: “I think we’re destined to do this forever.”
