8. If no one is above the law, and it is proven beyond reasonable doubt

that Trump broke the law and for doing that, he falls within the guidelines for sentencing to prison, then he has to go to prison.

If all that is true and he doesn't go to prison, then the POTUS is above the law.

I was a protestor of Nixon. They made the mistake of pardoning him.

Trump is alleged to have broken all kinds of laws. He needs to pay the price so that future Presidents think twice.
