People want Trump "perp-walked".
They want him in "Supermax"
The want him get to "Gitmo".
Some think he should be "executed".
I was under the impression that ultimate goal was justice.....

(3,110 posts)As you so frequently point out, this is an online discussion board, which really has not measurable real-world impact.
So why do you need to point out the hyperbole?
And here's a fun question for you:
If Trump is charged, why would he not be perp-walked? That's not vengeance, it's S
SOP. IIRC, Michael Cohen got perp-walked, among many others. People get perp-walked every day. Are all those about the ultimate goal of justice? Or would it only be about something else if it were Trump?
If Trump were convicted of espionage, which has landed lesser mortals in Supermax, would it be against the interest of justice for Trump to be likewise in Supermax?
I'll give you Gitmo--we shouldn't be perpetuating W's crimes. But, really, rhetoric. You know about that, maybe?
I read a lot of threads on DU. I honestly haven't seen calls for Trump's execution. How about you link me to that? And even if you can find one, or even three, does that constitute some sort of sense of the lesser mortals? Or are you just calling out the outliers for some purpose or another, who knows what it might be?
But really, what's your point. Other than demonstrating that you really can hold your pinky out when you drink tea?

Because, attentive though I think I am, I've missed them.

(102,098 posts)Are you saying that a DUer has said he should be executed without waiting for a conviction of a capital offense, or that people are discussing it before charge or conviction?
Yes, people have said "I believe he's guilty of treason or espionage" (which is not kooky, even if not proved), and "if he is found guilty of treason or espionage, he ought to be executed" (which is a possible sentence). Discussing the end sentence is not kooky either.

(10,737 posts)of wanting tRump executed "before he's even charged...." and being "kooky". One could reasonably assume that means your agreement.
MF45 has richly earned a lot of ill wishes. But in general, while some might not be disappointed if it had been him that fell down the stairs, I see posts here that want him to be arrested, jailed, tried and convicted first, then get sentenced to Ol' Sparky. Far more of us don't want him to get an "easy exit".

(29,100 posts)If that happens I think the best we can hope for is house arrest under the guard of the Secret Service. His phone calls would be monitored and he would be placed on a strict diet to maintain his health and well being. Visitors would be limited and closely supervised. He's not going to prison. He's already humiliated himself. Any further public displays of vengeance would be curtailed out of respect for the office.
Personally, I'd vote for tar and feathers.

(12,395 posts)If he committed sedition or treason, then Trump should be punished just like other citizens of the United States would be. That would be justice. It is likely that he is responsible for the deaths of people who worked for our country. The losses to their families must feel immeasurable.
I don't see what is so alarming about wanting Trump to get his just rewards. In light of the damage he has wrought to our country and our very way of life, a desire for vengeance is quite understandable.
No, I don't feel guilty for wanting him to pay the price for a lifelong crime spree---we don't even know yet what the biggest crime will turn out to be. There are so many crimes Dipshit Donnie committed, he should already be sitting in jail somewhere. Gitmo sounds like a good option.

(9,124 posts)Trump should be punished monetarily for damages and costs that are his responsibility and do the jail time appropriate for his crimes,
Importantly, Trump should be restrained from public threats and manipulation and the ability to hold public office. This is the minimum or the problems have not been addressed,
Trump is a criminal and a threat to the nation, but he is also a symptom of what ails the USA. Convicting Trump is just the beginning.
Those that enabled and benefitted from Trump actions are also complicit and need removal from public service and / or their fortunes. My worry at the moment is that the current demonization of Trump serves to limit his crimes and provide shade for others of guilt that will be threats in the future otherwise.
Personally, I want and have always wanted an egalitarian and democratic USA. There is a long way to go in many areas and levels. Start with the USSC. The media is complicit, even CNN and MSNBC.

Ocelot II
(119,273 posts)That sort of public shaming has not disappeared, even if conducted in 21st-century America with less brutality. The modern version is known as a perp walk. As in days of old, a criminal suspect is displayed in front of a fevered crowd composed now not of the howling masses but of camera and microphone holders pushing and shouting in sweaty pursuit of the best possible lens angle.
This installment of Retro Report, a series of video documentaries evoking major news stories of the past to help explain the present, examines the evolution of the perp walk because it remains integral to the criminal justice process, notably in media-soaked environments like New York City. Variations of the ritual have recently taken place in criminal cases against the film producer Harvey Weinstein and the former Trump lawyer Michael D. Cohen. With the special counsel Robert S. Mueller III still at work, it would seem reasonable to anticipate more to come....
Some perp walks have become lore. John Gotti, the well-tailored mob boss who died in 2002, looked so self-satisfied that his walk amounted to a perp strut. In the 1980s, Rudolph W. Giuliani, then a federal prosecutor with a somewhat cavalier approach to the rights of the accused, built a tough-guy reputation by marching accused Wall Street types before the press. Some of the cases turned out to be flimsier than tissue paper. But they were good publicity for Mr. Giuliani, and fueled his successful run for New York mayor.
If anybody needs a perp walk, it's Rudy.

FoxNewsSucks
(10,737 posts)Those are all consequences faced by those who committed crimes.
If MF45 committed crimes, sold secrets to our enemies, and is responsible for IC damage and deaths of our agents & spies, do you not think he should face appropriate consequences? Up to and including any or all of the things mentioned?
To me, yes, it looks like he and his conspirators deserve to face a firing squad. I may be very liberal about most things, but what they have done to this country demands meaningful and sufficient punishment. Because that's what justice is.

to that question - but - it wouldn't surprise me at all if he did. I wish him ill.
He is a grotesquerie as are his hangers-on. I do not care at this point if his
supporters are upset. They're just waiting for an excuse to shoot up the place and

The establishment will not let that happen to one of the elite. You may not like him but that is what he is. He is con artist and a malignant narcissist but he still has a lot of power.
Is he going to get fined if convicted sure. He might get some home confinement.
Real justice IMO is, hopefully, get him convicted of something that disqualifies him from office. That may not even fly though.
Otherwise his power needs to be diminished until he drops dead or is completed demented.

(5,185 posts)Numerous heinous crimes, similar to war crimes. Such criminals have been executed in the past. I doubt however he will ever face any real consequences. He is most definitely violent and is responsible for the deaths of millions. He would gladly see anyone on this board or any one of his enemies executed or gravely harmed if he had the power to do that. Not long ago he tried to overthrow a valid election and stage a coup.
Lets not forget what he has done and what he is capable of and what he will try to do if he ever gains power again. He is still inciting violence through his supporters. He slept with a book of hitlers speeches by his bedside for years and praised hitler to many more than we know of. Lets not forget any of this. Lets not forget that he is a very dangerous and violent psychopath.
I have not called for the things you listed, I ask for justice. I ask to feel safe from future harm that that monster already has and could further cause to my family and to this country and to the world. But honestly there will be no peace until he expires, of natural causes of course, because then he will be gone for good.

Seriously, we want justice.
Is there hyperbole? Yeah, probably because he is quite literally what a focus group would come up with when asked to make up a character with all the worst traits found in humanity. If he were a villain for a movie, they would say he's too "over the top evil".
I would love to see a perp walk. It would make me smile.
Sending him to Supermax would solve the Secret Service issue. He would be safe in his little room 23 hours a day.
GITMO shouldn't exist, even for that orange man.
Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed for less than he has likely done, but I am against the death penalty, so I don't want that.
I do, however, wish for him to go to prison along with his odious children.
I would not be happy to send him along his way with a hand slap and a semi-stern "don't do it again".
