I'll be amazed if this country can't protect itself and prosecute a blatant criminal

TFG keeps admitting to crimes. In public. That would have anyone else in chains for decades. Can we really not put a stop to this one man crime spree?

Dozens or hundreds or thousands of allegations of illegality.

Not one felony indictment of Trump or
close family, as far as I know.

I agree 100%. I do think Trump will be indicted, both in Georgia and by the DOJ.
