Bottom line...he’s going to jail. If he’s okay with that then he’s dumber than we all thought.

Our legal system is designed to protect the innocent and can be easily exploited by people who can afford a cadre of top notch lawyers. It is a system that is wholly unfair to those with modest resources who must rely on court appointed attorneys. They are often loaded down with cases and are quick to make a plea bargain knowing they don't have the resources of the wealthy. This is not my opinion. This was what was related to me by a young women who worked in the system.

the Trump former enablers, writing their "I've seen the light" garbage, are no better than the "we were just following orders" Nazis at Nuremberg...

Trump fomenting an insurrection was a bridge too far for these Trump ass-kissing loyalists?..how about separating desperate families at the border, babies in cages, "good people on both sides", overt racism..and how about covid and Trump's callous disregard for human life, downplaying the lethal ramifications of a world wide pandemic, manipulating the CDC, sidelining the medical experts in favor of know-nothing slobbering quacks...or the BIG LIE and Trump and his cabal secretly (and not so secretly) planning to overthrow the election...I've had enough of these so-called former aides and their tell-all books...they took the job and they stayed in the job...that says it all..and please stop portraying that milquetoast blend-into-the woodwork asshole Pence as the guy who saved our democracy...Pence was Trump's sock puppet..I have no doubt if Pence could have found a way to do his master's bidding he would have.."Hang Mike Pence" (with Trump's blessing) was the only reason Pence showed something resembling a spine...
