He's guilty of crimes against humanity.

He's a Fascist GOP Nat-C.

He and his ilk have the same three goals as the historical Nazis:

Intimidation
Incarceration
Extermination

The Nuremberg trials delivered the type of Justice that he deserves.

May reason rule and Justice be served!

I believe is also allowed in court. The trial is this April.

Even though this is a civil trial, Trump being found guilty is going to really sting a Narcissist.

E. Jean Carroll has also filed a sexual assault case, if she wins, when she wins this case it will help her sexual assault case.

Everyone has overlooked E. Jean Carroll but she has fought Trump for over 3 1/2 years and has not backed down, and she avowed never to settle out of court. It also helps to have Roberta Kaplan as her lawyer.

Using the felon's own testimony as evidence against him. How novel!

If this catches on, swifter justice may yet have a chance.

I guess they’ll say the Deep State got Jean Carroll to accuse him.

It's time. Come forward and then go into witness protection somewhere.

Sexual assault crimes
Business and tax fraud
Election fraud and insurrection

AND he is allowed and fully committed to running again to become the most powerful person in the world.

And no end in sight for the "Trump's in trouble!!!" "Any day now!" "Here it comes!!!" "Indictments any second now!" "Trump's going down!" These types of headlines could go on for a long time yet.

Its already a joke. Garland has already dragged it out too long to be the most effective. Striking the iron while hot would have been the most effective. My suspicions are that Democratic leadership has come to the conclusion that it would be more politically advantageous to delay and give excuses and wait until Trump self implodes, and enough R's realize he is a dead end, and so those disgruntled Rs will join forces with Ds to de-platform Trump. Not overtly join them, but start the process from their end. With the result being that moderate Rs and Ds can move on and fight each other on other things. And the Democrats don't have to deal with the burden of being the party that is first to prosecute a former President....and all the baggage that will bring them, not to mention the perceived injustice and retribution from the other side.

Wonder how much it has to do with encountering vastly less resistance from the GOP since the ‘22 election they have decided he’s a loser and likely to be an anvil around their necks in ‘24. They can’t oppose him or they lose their MAGA base so they are hoping the legal system does the dirty work for them.
