SC can say good bye to their luxury lifestyle when Trump throws them in the slammer.

Also ‘increased danger to the public’ … ice maybe trip on their shoelace…?

Sounds like an episode of Cops, meant to cause fake fear among the magats.

In 2028 if a Democrat wins they keep Kash and other MAGAt's to "heal divisions".

Bush and his goons did not face any consequences , neither did Trump et al, after his first term.
I am pretty sure that narrative about healing the country was explicitly used.

No Democratic president would keep him around, the suggestion is absurd and ridiculous.

I don't know how goon qualifications are demarcated so I will defer to your expertise.

Especially when you consider that Trump immediately got rid of Wray and tried to get rid of Powell.

The Fuhrer Turd's Geheime Staatspolizei is hard at work. Herr Patel was/is just "following orders." Sieg Heil!
