46. However, the vast majority of indictments follow arrests
Tue Jan 31, 2023, 12:58 AM
Jan 2023

and most indictments lead to arrests within a relatively short period of time. Yeah, I know, they want all the ducks in a row, irrefutable evidence (which, with January 6th, is very open, visible in every photo and video that was taken of his speech and the whole riot) and the testimony of more than a thousand eyewitnesses, including Trump apologists who openly admit, and even brag about the fact that they clearly understood his invitation to come to DC to take a shot at ignoring the legitimate election process and getting their way by violence.

From before Stormy Daniels up to January 6th and then in the obstruction of justice in getting at real stolen classified documents instead of notebooks mentioning classified documents, the criminal history of failed President 45 adds up to more potential indictments than they had against Al Capone.

The real deadline here has already passed, and the buffoon is out there running again, so really, it's too late. Saving democracy is on a timetable that has, for the most part, slipped away, just like nailing his ass on Russian collusion in the 2016 election.
