2 years, 1 month, 22 days
That is how long it took from the arrest of the Watergate burglars until Nixon resigned.
It has been 10 months, 9 days since the insurrection.
In this age of instant gratification we would all love to see the wheels of justice move faster than the speed of slow but unfortunately that is not how it works.
The largest obstacle in what is going on now is that until we have a John Dean moment, there are too many persons in the GQP with no
sense of duty to their oath of office. As the investigations continue I am hopeful there will be an ah-hah moment and the rats will start abandoning the ship. They will find another vessel infest as lobbyists, Fox pundits or think tank savants so they will not be overly concerned. They got what the wanted from the Slob Father and they will throw him under the bus just as quickly and he would do to them.
As a long time lurker, I usually do not start discussions but now that we are moving away from bashing Merrick Garland, I wanted to put in my 2 cents.

The 'Insurrection' and related traitortrump issues, including trump finances, are so much more complicated than Watergate.
A main Watergate financial payoff source was the safe in [unofficial Chief of Staff] Haldeman's office. Made widely public by WH Counsel flipper John Dean, going there for still another 'bite of the apple'. Untraceable source, funded by ?, for unlimited cash supplies, to 'take care of problems'.
Comparing Nixon issues to traitortrump problems/legal issues, is like 'comparing a garden hose to Niagara Falls'.
