...knowing how insecure and ego-driven Cheetolini is, I would think that even having to leave office in disgrace, with everyone knowing the truth about him, would be a fate worse than death. Even if he escapes incarceration, every day for the rest of his life would be a prison without a cell.

every day for the rest of his life would be a prison without a cell.". Trump would argue to the world that the fact he wasn't sentenced to prison was "PROOF" that he "didn't do anything wrong." The only thing that MIGHT prevent him from creating his own little golden fantasy world is eating off a tray and wearing a number on his chest 24/7.

Nor do I.
Justice is about righting wrongs. It's why I'm vocal about Hillary being elected to the Speakership of the house .

But under our system, severe crimes necessarily result in being removed from society in an effort to keep the rest of us safe from the disregard (or malice) of the criminal.

Donald Trump is a criminal .
If he goes to prison , he WILL likely die there.
I'm ok with that.
