This is some serious unprecedented bullshit. Especially when their charge was money laundering. Basically he is making money laundering legal. Go ahead and break the law. Trump will pardon you…

Kinda makes sense no? Corporations are people and are treated as such in courts.
If people have death penalty, corporations should also have one
Businesses have been sued out of business before. Not QUITE what you mean, but the ends still the same.
I refuse to parrot the phrase “corporations are people” unless I’m being clearly sarcastic, or add, “the shitty US supreme court has incorrectly ruled that” beforehand.
?? It’s the same in Canada, and the EU as far as I am aware. It’s a pretty normal thing?
I remember when capitalists first claimed this idea. It was seen as ridiculous, but then got pushed through. So maybe it’s something that you’ve been conditioned to or grown up with accepting as the way things are.
Well, except criminal court where sentencing is a joke because no human is held accountable.
Kill a bunch of people? That’ll be a fine you pass on to your customers.

“Corporations are people driving cars”
If a corporation used self driving cars that’s exactly how an accident would be dealt with….
Since I wasn’t clear at all in my first comment: I’m referring to the fact that people can also get away with murder, as long as they’re driving a car at the time. Very rarely is it much more than a slap on the wrist, but it’s always significantly less than any other form of negligent homicide.
