    People really need to tamper their expectations. I dunno what universe you live in, but I live in the one where a rich ex president gets away with his crimes and never sets foot in jail, because sadly that’s the reality. It would never be allowed to happen.

      Also it’s temper not tamper

      No one thought we’d ever see an insurrection like Jan 6. and no one ever thought an ex POTUS would ever be indicted. Yet, here we are. He’s going to be convicted and he’s going to prison.

      That’s just unacceptable though. And people who keep saying this are only giving more credit to this idea. They keep saying the law applies to everyone so we are going to find out for sure if that’s true. He can be stripped of that secret service perk. You don’t get the perks of being a president if you are a criminal. Why would you? Let him fight it from his cell if he wants
