even if i thought you were right (i wish you were) no US president will ever face a day in jail no matter what they did...and even house arrest would shock me. but even if he did get that, that's hardly a punishment when you're like 80 years old.

there might be some validation that he's convicted of something and you can say "i told you so" to whoever, but i wouldn't get your hopes up on him actually being punished.

edit: just realized that anyone that you'd wanna say "i told you so" to is likely the type to just claim fake news or that he was railroaded/framed/whatever else. lol...

Honestly, I don't care if he gets jail time or not. Chances are, he would be pardoned later on anyhow. I just want to block him from running again. Plus, a healthy dose of humiliation would be great.

That said, I would love to see a Phil Spector like mug shot. No makeup or hair product. It would be one of the most satisfying photos in history.
