Technically, I don't think much of that is illegal. Indefensible, immoral, and impeachable (been there, done that), but not illegal. People, even horrible people, in a free society are not locked up for acts which are not illegal.

My overall stance it that the justice system should do it's thing - investigate, arrest, prosecute -- without political interference or influence one way or the other.
It has enough bias and politics to it already. We don't need to continue to normalize that.

*yes inciting violence is illegal, but he was never as explicit as would be required by law.


Also WTF happened that I now sound like I am defending Trump????????
I most assuredly am NOT.

Trump, like his spiritual predecessor Capone, will end up in prison for tax evasion. But where is our Elliot Ness?
 
Nothing hopefully but what is he hiding by firing people and blocking oversight from an incoming administration ?

He is crazy enough to try and use the military to change what he sees as injustice

I think he will fail though as the strength of US institutions will stop him but how much damage will he do ?

Gen Milley seemed to shut this down and I think by and large the branches of the military will not put with Presidential insurrection, but there are enough loons that who knows what will happen.
 
Subtle but important distinction since Trump is touting the speed with which the vaccine was developed. US government had no part in the development phase.
We'll seen how the distribution phase goes.
