First get to a trial, second If convicted put the Criminal in Jail, third, restructure the Corrupt Court

Something tells me in the not too distant future Clarence Thomas will have a Special Council appointed to his own case.

"allegedly" We all literally saw it happen live on television.

So exhausting and tired cant wait for the day we don’t here about him

[JMichael-xcuu]

Moral of the story- don’t try to overthrow the government, don’t try to institute a dictatorship in the US even if his base of 35% of the country cant understand why bringing down democracy is a bad thing

[franksousa]

Reform supreme court and lock trump up

[suedavis]

I don't think fomenting an insurrection comes under official Presidential duties.

He isn't being prosecuted because he's running for office. He's running for office because he's being prosecuted.

That said, he will get off. Corruption will find a way. There will be a judge, court, or someone else that will find a way to prevent him from facing justice.

He belongs in prison and not in the White House

[docimma]

I doubt Trump cares bc he is never punished.

[JjJj-sryp]

This convicted felon makes what Nixon did seem not so bad. That’s how serious his many crimes are

[Armageddon]

Over 200 GOP Republicans are publicly endorsing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Trump is toast.

[salpah]

What happened to the Republican line of “If do not want to do time, don’t do the crime”?

[richardjames]

Trumps the Greatest President we've Ever Had .❤

[danielrsson]

I cannot understand why this guy is allowed to run for office! Any other country would disqualify this guy immediately!

[charlessmith]

This guy is the biggers intimidated liar ever in history.

[johnterhark]
