Summary
Should he win, Trump would become the first convicted criminal to hold the office, granting him access to the nuclear codes, while defeat could lead to more trials and possible imprisonment.
Throughout his life, he has often evaded legal consequences—from discrimination lawsuits in the 1970s to recent fraud cases and the dissolution of his charitable foundation. Accusations of sexual misconduct and a history of falsehoods have marked his personal and political life.
Despite these challenges, Trump portrays himself as a victim of a corrupt system, turning legal battles into rallying cries. This election may bring a reckoning that even he cannot escape.
This is a weird premise because he could be in jail already. Democrats truly made justice for J6 one of their lowest priorities, where they could have chased it relentlessly from every angle, and not stopped or started over until justice was done, taking the case to the American public; pursuing it as violently as they have the defense of a genocide by an American Ally: they didn’t. It didn’t become a priority until election year, and even then they blew it on all fronts from either incompetence or naivety.
So we can’t really believe an argument that suddenly Democrats are going to have a coming to God moment and prioritize Trump experiencing consequences for J6. It simply wasn’t a priority for the party. It seems Trump is too useful a Boogeyman to not have as an opponent.
I personally think he should be locked up in a cell deep below Leavenworth, and we should never have had to hear his name again. The man’s acts define the word treason. I just can’t take a government seriously which can’t effect that.
That’ll only happen when Trump’s thugs come to purge them. But then it’ll be too late, of course.
