(Salon) .............To quickly recap, standing in the sewage and heaving his own political feces far and wide is the wild orangutan of the Republican, excuse me MAGA, party Donald Trump. We know what hes all about. Do I really need to go into great detail? What can I possibly say that hasnt already been written, said, recorded or spoken about the man. Hes still chaos in a blender.
And his supporters? Most of them fall not too far from the poisoned tree of Trump. I spoke with one of his Midwest supporters this week; a used car salesman who believes all politicians are liars, but Donald is special. They all lie. Theyre all crooks. Theyre all corrupt. The country was better under Trump though. We were at peace. He got us out of Afghanistan and Biden screwed that up. We were at peace with Russia and Biden screwed that up. There wasnt a war in the Middle East. Thats Bidens fault too.
....(snip)....
To hell with arguing about court cases. To hell with pointing out Trumps foibles. Hillary Clinton lost because she didnt go where she needed the votes in 2016. Concentrate on beating Trump at the polls. Make sure the election is secure. Make sure theres no fraud. Make sure theres no suppression. Concentrate on doing those things and then it doesnt matter if Trump goes to prison. Just make sure the seditious ass clown never makes it back to the White House. Count every vote and everyone must vote.
....(snip)....
Donald Trump must never return to the White House. We know what and who he is. Dont waste your time pointing out the obvious, or getting upset about it. Do something positive. Turn out the votes. It is not a time to be complacent. It is not a time to become bored or unamused. The next eight months will be a trial of everyones intestinal fortitude. ...........................(more)

DOJ will not save us from Trump. The courts will not save us from Trump. The Congressional committees, or sub-committees, or sub-sub committees will not save us from Trump.
Only us will save us from Trump. Quit looking for someone to blame and vote, dammit! And get anyone you can to vote. It's as simple as that.

Of course I'd love to see Chump convicted and sent to prison. I'd even be happy with conviction and NOT sent to prison.
But the gist is that with a criminal conviction he can never be elected or serve in office again. He can't even run for county dog catcher.
Come on Justice! Let's get a move on!
