I’m not convinced that Democrats are all that comfortable with arresting and prosecuting Trump, with their dirty linen out in the open.

They might do it. There are no reasonable checks to their powers at this moment. We have token Republicans like Kevin McCarthy and he will puff and everyone will listen to him but it's nothing but hot air.

So yeah, if there's an opportunity for the Democrats to arrest Donald Trump. They'll do it.

I wouldn’t argue with that. I’m just saying it comes at a
price, and I don’t think they’re going to like the price.

You have reminded us all of the key. At this time there are "checks and balances" as in civilized nations and the past version of the US the Founders envisioned.

Once Walter Winchell could squeeze his columns into the hostile William Randolph Hearst newspapers to expose Adolph Hitler when others wanted him ignored or called a breath of fresh air for peace. Now the leftist media is the 100% propaganda arm of the Dems. Watch for FCC to cancel outliers soon.

Once the Senate could stop a wild and reckless House or vice versa. Or the President could veto. Or the SCOTUS could act independently of the current politics, fearlessly. NONE of this is in play today.

Yeah the Republicans will scream for a throw in the towel hearing.

Then it will be kabuki theater at its finest. The chest thumpers will parade out in front of the mics demanding justice which will never come unless it comes from the patriot citizen.

The 3%ers, the Gadsden and Come and Take It crowd, Oath Keepers the time draws nigh.

IF even HALF of those who support Trump go on a SIT DOWN STRIKE immediately-—this country grinds to a halt.
