Maybe that orange fuck wants to go to jail, so his cesspool raises up.
It's ridiculous. Any of us would be in jail if we did even a fraction of his antics.
Since people often think that's a simple matter of different justice for the wealthy or powerful, I feel it is necessary to point out that if Obama had done a small fraction of what Trump is accused of, he would have been executed.
While I don't normally condone death as a form of punishment, we have precedent with the Rosenberg's.
Executed as traitors, and if memory serves, for less flagrant violations. The fact that the orange stain continues to get away with all this shit astounds me.
Being an absolute traitor to your country while being the president... I'm sorry, but execution may be the only suitable solution, especially considering how many lives trump has had a direct hand in ending. Whether that be covid, compromised information to foreign powers (allegedly) that we have a history of NOT being friendly with, or just improper storage (including using it as some form of clout), or just general ineptitude.
If the US was a TV show, we jumped the shark when that fucker was forced in against the popular vote by the electoral college.
Then again, if memory serves, most GOP presidents in recent history have been forced through by the electoral college, as opposed to the will of the people.
I thought the same about the electoral college but it's only happened a few times but twice have been in my lifetime which certainly sucks.

I agree
Thanks Obama? /s
we would have been in prison until the trials
We would have been in prison many years ago unless we had money.
