It's rigged to benefit guys like him, as is our economic system.

will arise and take his place. The GQP and the rest are not afraid of him. IMO they're using him to get to the next election, the mid-terms. But for '24 they're going to ditch him for a younger, non-loser like DeSantis or someone else.

By then he's liable to be only semi-coherent anyway.

4. Our justice system knows there is almost no way to convict trump of anything remotely political.

That's just a sad fact.

Cohen probably knows everything dirty about trump, yet he has not revealed anything more than trump paid Stormy Daniels to keep quite, trump is ignorant, and trump is a racist Ahole. Unfortunately, that is not illegal but should have been enough to keep voters from electing him in 2016.

7. Suggest you look up what Cohen was convicted of-- Tax evasion and campaign finance violations.
