By not removing him when we had the chance, thousands have died. And the Republicans are responsible.

He's literally been grifting and scamming and playing the odds on getting caught by the law, society, the mob, his family, etc, his WHOLE life. This is no different than at any other moment of his life, except he now has a whole political party on his side.

But he's fucked with some very bad, very unforgiving folk before, and walked away. He has absolutely no reason to have personal understanding that his crimes and acts could actually have consequences.
