    No. There will should be NO easy outs for this fuckwad. He needs to be made a serious example of. He should be sent to Gitmo.

      i was really just thinking it would be funny if the prosecutors called for this at every one of his trials, just to make him lose his mind.

          Our officials should be held to a higher standard than we are, and that absolutely should include mental health checkups before and during tenure. But we also need to recognize that would be a convinient system for opponents to weaponize. We can’t even manage to have an impartial Supreme Court, let alone mental health examiners. Idk what we do about it.

            We can apply the “but who makes the rules” fear to everything. But inaction is just as bad. I think we need to understand that nothing has changed in politics, we just have more awareness of it because of the internet. The supreme court has always been corrupt. The idea of impartiality was drilled into us like the pledge of allegiance. We’ve all been brainwashed, but a lot more of us are waking up.

      I’m pretty sure that the most we can hope for is house arrest. The courts won’t want a former president getting stabbed in the showers, being bullied into giving up national secrets or the bureaucratic mess of him having a security detail inside, as fitting as any of that would be.
