Fullerene Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 26 minutes ago, ThatBoyRonaldo said: Trump will not be prosecuted for the reason several have mentioned - once you set the precedent that the president can go to jail for crimes committed in office, every president will go to jail. Doing crimes is intrinsic to the job. Possibly the only downside of Trump leaving office will be that America will stop having a president who says the quiet part loud and that fact will become obscured again. I get your point but previous presidents have done what they thought was best for the country whether it was a crime or not. The incitement to riot against the state itself could be considered treason which is not a charge you could easily apply to other presidents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sort of mentality worked so well in the DDR where she grew up. Too bad nobody was able to cut the mike on Adolf when the Enabling Act was being passed. A strong civil society that can tell El Presidente to do one is one of democracy's last lines of defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I just don't see Trump seeing the inside of a prison cell because any attempt at prosecuting him will be used as a green light for whichever nutjob that harnesses his base to proceed with The Storm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Apparently a lot of helicopter activity at Pence's house and a single helicopter heading for Camp David. Sounds to me like Trump is going so Pence can pardon him. Fun fact, you only ever see one presidential helicopter on TV, but three actually take off every time and go in separate directions so if you wanted to shoot one down you wouldn't know which one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean its not there now and that that doesn't mean something is going on. Also with the one headed for Camp David too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
