Hundreds of January 6th insurrectionists were tried, found guilty and jailed after following TFG's orders to storm the Capitol over what he kept insisting was a "stolen election" - while he inexplicably still walks free! Let alone that a convicted felon is somehow allowed to lead the government that he attempted to overthrow - and stole boxes of classified documents, and likely shared them, jeopardizing our national security and that of our allies. How is this even possible under our Constitution?!

And what future historians will make of it - how will they teach about it in schools?!

When he owes millions in fines, to the state of New York and to E. Jean Carroll as determined by the courts, he's yet to learn that he can't just blow them off as he usually does...

who may include some of international flavor. Losing this election should go a long ways toward eliminating much of that backing. The "Trump" brand now needs a "President" to go with it or it will become a joke.

He should be in prison for life, and after that, one or more of his family/cabal to take his place.

Impeding this case is itself a crime.

I still don't understand how those who followed his "orders" are now in prison, while this convicted felon still walks free - let alone is allowed to run for national office where he committed his most egregious crimes!
