Great idea, ban the frontrunner of the only other viable Party from running for office, this won’t have any consequences at all!
Great idea, don’t hold former presidents to account when they attempt to subvert democracy, that won’t have any consequences at all!
If they wanted to hold him to account they’d have charged him immediately after the insurrection, rather than waiting for the next election. Why did they wait so long? Now he’s campaigning and can use every decision against him to rally his supporters into a frothing mob.
You mean like the impeachment or any of the trials we’ve had for his criminal behavior? Yeah, why didn’t they do that immediately??? And while we’re at it, why does the legal system move so slowly???
The impeachment was literally nothing.
What I mean is that he could have been arraigned much earlier. They slow walked the charges so that he’d have time to become the frontrunner in order to sabotage the GOP. This isn’t just the law moving slowly, this is a political strategy to ensure Biden’s reelection.
This will only result in his cult becoming radicalized.
Hopefully they don’t get violent.

Federal courts just move slowly. Any of the current cases against Trump taking less than 6 years would be an anomaly. That’s not an endorsement of our current system of justice, far from it.

Trump notoriously uses delay as his primary legal tactic; Has done for decades.
His lawyers have taken every opportunity to take legal actions doomed to “fail” because they knew they would gum up the works and move trial dates further back. They have argued at every turn for delays, and are currently complaining about being told to work over the holidays because a judge gave them strict deadlines for filing briefs in Trump’s own appeal which has paused all actions in the case until it is resolved.
(The appeal is that Trump has “absolute immunity” and therefore can’t even be tried, let alone convicted, for any crimes he may have committed while president. It’s absurd on its face)
Federal courts just move slowly.
The J-6th rioters got court hearings and sentences before Trump was even brought up on charges. That’s telling.
Now it’s too late and he’s the frontrunner. By taking so long they might destabilize the country.

Maybe he shouldn’t have attempted a coup? Consequences indeed.
You think election denialism was bad before? Just wait until it’s literally illegal for Trump to get elected lol
The nation is only as strong as we’re willing to fight corruption and enforce laws.
If Trump faces no consequences it will be easier for the next dictator wannabe to seize control.
Pissing off maga morons is a small price to pay.
Trump should have faced consequences years ago. They waited too long and now he’s running for president again.
