There will be no post-POTUS trial, conviction or punishment. We have a precedent of not pursuing ex-Presidents, klintoon was a very rare exception and that was merely a slap on the wrist. The precedent has to do with our stated national goal of “peaceful transition”.

Shunned is a different story. Nobama will be shunned just like Nixon. Klintoon is shunned everywhere except in the smokey dem backrooms.

“We have a precedent of not pursuing ex-Presidents”

Except he’s not president if he took possession of the office fraudulently. Completely different scenarios here. Nixon and Clinton were legally presidents.

A usurper by definition is one not holding the office legally.
