If certain people are above the law, then the whole bases for American norms, values, and laws will be out the door
yep ... see Republican responses to Trumps alleged crimes ... he and they are above the law because they see anyone wishing to hold them accountable for alleged wrong doing is doing it out of political retribution .... therefore all (Republican) politicians are above the law
Trump will be convicted on more than one of his criminal deeds
Don't hold your breathe.
DoJ is trying to get an ironclad case, a case so tight there can not be any whiff of ambiguity or any kind of doubt. My thinking is without the testimony of someone from the inner circle of advisors Trump will skate on J6. He will probably skate on MaL because apparently everyone has top secret documents. He has insulated himself from his business activities to the extent of plausible deniability. And further it is apparent Trump loyalists are willing to fall on their sword for him. And then there is jury nullification. (For he is the anointed one).
What is clear to objective people is not clear to cult members.
I predict .9 probability Trump will be indicted for something. I predict a max .2 probability he will be convicted of anything. Why, even Republicans who know he is guilty of crimes against America have already come to his rescue. Why would you think a prosecutor could empanel an honest objective jury without including any of these people who are willing to exonerate him? After all he said it himself, he could shoot someone on 5th Ave and not lose a single supporter.
