Can’t argue with that. Desperate people do desperate things, usually adding to their punishment.
But you raise an interesting question:
What will the public do if Trump is put in jail?
I think they will go into a rage that this country has not seen since.....the Revolution.
Those long senate and house investigations that create much hot air but no relief from the problems will turn into rage that will consume not only congress but spread throughout the country.
Potentially like the Troubles in Northern Ireland or the Intifada in Israel. But it may not even go that far. Too many of us have jobs and we have to feed our families and mortgages to pay. Too much to lose if people decide to act.
