    So basically you’re saying Biden can have a little Coup, as a treat, and your double standard doesn’t bother you at all. Gotcha.

      Coup? That is over throwing power and the state I dididn’t say that.

      Someone DID break the law, broke the constitution, and is threatening to dissolve the constitution.

      Where as on the other hand they didn’t do all that.

      What is this double standard there is one standard and it should be applied. Turns out only one side is doing illegal shit in the presidency. Only one side broke laws. The laws should apply. Trump could serve his presidency from a jail cell but make sure the law is applied. Execution is a one of the penalties that could apply to Treason. Treason is defined in the U.S. Constitution as levying war against the U.S. or giving aid and comfort to its enemies. If the facts are true that Trump gave informants info to Russia i think we have a strong case. I don’t believe in execution but what is the point of swearing to protect the constitution if you won’t do it.

      For election interference Trump should be in jail for 5 years. For the insurrection 10 years. And can’t hold any office For advocating to overthrow the government 20 years.

      Trump did this and many other things. He hasn’t seen a jail cell. This isn’t prosecuting political enemy it is upholding the constitution and law. A president can govern from jail in the USA. I would argue insurrection disqualified him. Not that I want it but let JD Vance in but not him
