    Ya, 2020 was the election. That was BEFORE January 6th. Until Trump is in jail, we will continue to have this threat. So far there are 93 indictments. We just need him in jail and then we can breathe slightly easier.

        People are basically saying that on every single news story about the man. People are constantly talking about how anybody else would be in jail for the shit he’s done.

        These things take time to do right. If they rush, they make it more likely that he’ll get off on a technicality or plausible deniability that they didn’t prepare for because everyone was so focused on getting him right NOW. You need to collect evidence and you need to build a case, and that case has to be air-tight or else the prosecution looks like a bunch of jackasses who wasted public money on an “innocent” man. He cannot be able to win this. The constant stalling and threats of violence from an angry mob of millions of magats gets in the way too.

          All that while some poor persons’ trial takes like a day. Like I get it’s more complicated but all that it’s proving is that the justice system is a multi tier system.

        It looks Al Capone over 2 years to indict Al Capone and he had 22 indictments. Trump had 93 and across multiple states. Trump took about 3 years to bring his first indictment. So it’s not far off from previous indictments.
