In reply to the discussion: Trump Biographer Says Trump Will 'Travel the Country Fomenting Violence' if He's Not 'Put in Jail' [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,173 posts)46. Unfortunately he has become a cult hero to many
Even if he is sitting in a jail cell, maybe that would even bolster his image all the more, he'll now always have a rabid following who will forever believe he was persecuted unfairly and was the best President they have ever had.
In fact, when he is released, or pardoned, I can see him getting a bump. And he'll fill arenas again. If he doesn't or can't run in 2020...would he be eligible to run for a second term in 2024, or 2028? How does that work?

OP
Which of your loved ones are you willing to sacrifice on the altar of "waking people up?"

Maybe. Just cutting the internet (DNS servers, major ISPs) could do the trick also.

Hopefully nothing that will lead the majority of the GOP to think he's been "martyred"...

Wait until you see the size of the shrine they're planning for when he dies.

He's got a cult like following that I don't think we've ever seen in US history

Mob ties, money laundering, rape and sexual assault, overt racism...all known before he even ran.

He's a vengeful sociopath. Obama degraded him so badly he decided to run for POTUS.

He is a domestic terrorist threat to the U.S. I'd call that a high crime.

There ought to be no argument about locking him up though traitors deserve more.
