  • Trump sexually assaulted dozens of young women and girls. And not only admitted it publicly but bragged about it. He was not arrested.
  • Trump used his wealth to campaign for the arrest and execution of five innocent men on no other basis than they were black and he still got away with it.
  • Trump collaborated with Russian government elements to have the election swayed in his favor and was not only not arrested, but was fucking elected president. Then when this was officially investigated later the evidence was ignored by half of Congress on the grounds of the law doesn't matter if they win an election.
  • Trump ordered a missile strike on an ostensibly allied country, extremely close to that country's international public airport, to assassinate a political figure from another nation. And didn't tell his allies he was having missiles launched in their country. And got away with it.
  • Trump refused to go to a ceremony honoring US war dead so he could meet in private with Putin. Without security or staff. And got away with it.
  • Trump publicly supported the Russian invasion of Ukraine. BOTH TIMES.
  • Trump met with Russian intelligence in the fucking oval office and exposed sensitive information about US allies; and nothing happened to him.
  • Trump riled up a mob and directed them to storm the capitol building to force an overturn of the election results; to wit, a coup. And got away with it.

Amazing what you can do when you have money and convince poor rural people you are one of them in spite of being neither poor nor rural.

Not just that but Trump is a grade A narcissist. I've dealt with narcs 2 times in my life. It would be a severe mistake to underestimate the instinctive skill with which a narcissist can twist your words and throw them right back at you.

I've experienced this myself. Me and a close friend dealing with a narc coach in our sports club. We went into his office, and we were going to set him straight. Half an hour later, we stand outside, having just agreed that everything was out fault, and we're looking at each other shellshocked with a 'WTF just happened' look on our face.

Trump will walk away from this too.

If Trump is convicted (which I doubt) will his Secret Service agents hang out in the hall outside of his jail cell?
Will Trump need to worry about getting shanked in the lunch line?
Like one of us peasants!?

Given that half the jail are probably Trumpists, I have no doubt he'd live like a king.
