If you want to fight Trump, you might start by removing your county sheriff
If you want to fight the Trump administration, you might start by removing your county sheriff. In California, the position of sheriff is the closest approximation to the lawless, authoritarian presidency Donald Trump is fashioning. Because sheriffs, in matters of jail and policing, do whatever they want. No government post produces more scandal and corruption. And the state constitution and state law provide no way to fire sheriffs engaged in wrongdoing.
