    Reality number 1: He avoids all responsibility. Avoids all punishment.

    He has so far had a 100% success rate in avoiding jail time or any consequences. I hate the guy and wish that hell was real (I’ll even go there too if it meant these kinds of people would) but I would never in a billion years bet against him avoiding punishment.
