Logistical Thought Experiment: How will they indict tfg?

Imagine you have an indictment returned from a grand jury and now its time to arraign tfg. How would that happen? What would that look like?

Imagine Georgia prosecutors tell tfg that he has 7 days to produce himself for booking. What do you think would happen around Georgia and Atlanta?

Would he refuse outright?

Would he tell his supporters to shut down Georgia?

Would he tell them to do more?

How would his supporters react?

Would the state need federal assistance? Would the trial need to be held in a secure federal location that could be defended?


This needs to happen and it will be a huge mess and cost millions in security expenditures and business lost wherever this happens.
I believe plans are already underway in Georgia and that's why State officials have asked for Federal assistance.

(This is not an excuse for not pursuing justice. Justice must prevail. I'm only a former physical security logistician, thinking of plans in place and being developed).

so it's rather pointless in imagining the outcome if he gets indicted.

I'm wondering what's going to happen when he isn't indicted and he runs again in 2024 and wins.

In my mind, that outcome will make the nightmare of his "first term" in office look like child's play in comparison.

The longer he is out there fomenting violence without ramifications, the more people they will kill.

And they will do it in geographic pockets so they will be difficult to stop.

But it is all necessary.

he'll flee before it gets to the indictment stage. He'll keep trying to influence US politics from "exile," through his rogue gangs, like some other tin pot dictators have. He won't be successful politically ever again.
