I guess I have reached the point where I say "I'M DONE!"

68. Because that's Trump's line, which the media will always take up.

Even if he'd been indicted the day he left office, that wouldn't have stopped SCOTUS from issuing their immunity ruling. Let's say he had been tried and convicted a year ago. Of course he'd have appealed, and SCOTUS might have decided then that everything he did on 1/6 was an official act and then he'd be off the hook. Or say the case was tried before the election and he was acquitted, which arguably would have been an even worse result. That was always my worry, since the 1/6 case was never a slam dunk. The documents case should have been (but for Loose Cannon), but I can imagine SCOTUS coming up with some bullshit to immunize him even from that. But there has never been any guarantee, even without SCOTUS' mess, that Trump would be held responsible for 1/6 because the case was so unusual and the prosecution's burden of proof is so high. I don't think the legal system is broken at the ground level, but SCOTUS sure is.
