    I think it’s going to be the exact opposite. They’ll make a mockery of the justice system and turn it into a circus. The media will report every day and Drumph will keep his name continuously talked about. Meanwhile his team will watch what is reported nightly so they can strategize a narrative for “his viewers” while at the same time going as close to whatever line(s) as they can without crossing, but still keeping it a spectacle. It’ll be even worse than the 4 years he was president.

        Perhaps, but Alex could never say “you can’t do that to an ex-president.”

        Jones did say all kinds of other dumb shit, but not that.

        Trump also has a slightly more rabid following.

        Trump will just play the wounded lamb for a nationwide audience, 1/3rd of which will lap it up.

            Their defense is already established. It’s a “witch hunt”, “corruption”, “politically motivated”. Delegitimizing the current authority, where this kind of act is deemed illegal, is the goal. We have too many “uneducated” people, looking for “love”, in this country.

      They cross the lines every day. Just a little. Problem is, the lines moves to compensate, instead of standing their ground.
