When Biden was on the ballot, voters didn't see him as someone who could take radical steps to address the number of underlying issues plaguing the country.
A vote for Biden was a vote for the status quo. The status quo is a slow decline into fascism.
The apolitical thing would be to not have chants to jail someone at a rally.
I mean, it's a political rally. Wake me up when a judge assigned to one of Trump's many cases shows up and starts chanting.
If the Dems start doing Trumplike shit because he did it first
Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez got convicted on bribery charges. Democrats dropped him like a bag of rocks. Would you say the same thing would happen if a pro Trump senator was indicted?
I get what you are saying. It could push us down a path where political enemies are locked up after they lose president elections, but I don't think that is the case.
(1) Jailing Trump isn't a major taking point from politicians. I think Democratic politicians present the prosecution of Trump to be a good thing especially regarding the Georgia and Florida cases, but they typically present his felony conviction as the goal. "Lock him up" typically isn't a railing cry which makes this article newsworthy.
(2) Trump is unique. The Florida and Georgia cases ARE notable. Holding onto state secrets come with a high legal burden. He fucked up. You can't pressure Georgia officials to find votes for you as President. He fucked up. I'm happy having courts investing that.
I expect if Trump actually got sentenced it would be like 8 months probation.
Why not?
