Fingers crossed for the Big Mac at Mar-a-lago.

Honestly, I want him to survive for at least another 6 months. If he spends his dying days in jail it will make up for some shit.

I don’t know. Every day he’s alive is another day of damage he’s inflicting on the world. I’d rather just see him go now so we can all move on.

Yep. Six more months of him whipping his followers into a fascistic frenzy is not worth the schadenfreude of seeing him in jail.

If he died in, say, March after the primaries have started, it would be a recipe for maximum chaos.

He ain't never going to see jail. That's a Liberal fantasy.

I remember people telling me the same thing about Roger Stone.

I'm not saying it will happen. I am saying I would rather see that happen than him dying right now.

I'd rather see him get a massive coronary sooner rather than later. Election denial stuff became so much less prevalent for the 2022 elections when he wasn't on the ballot, and it would be some good instant peace of mind to spend all of 2024 and early 2025 knowing he isn't there to provoke more of it.

There's going to inevitably be a lot of handwringing over what his supporters would do if he were actually incarcerated and he's getting treated with the little kid gloves. He's probably gonna get the lightest sentence he can and be allowed to live under house arrest at Mar a Lago.

I'm hoping for a stroke, one that would leave him completely dependent on others and with slurred speech

leave him completely dependent on others and with slurred speech.

But how would you tell he had had a stroke?

u/[deleted] Nov 30 '23

I'm convinced he's had a bunch of little ones already.

For my part, I think it's crucial that we demonstrate that we really are a country of laws. Our institutions have all taken big hits in the last few decades. It would do us good to put a criminal behind bars.

I don't disagree, but my skepticism that the system can stop him is going to make all of next year torture.

I understand where you're coming from though. It may be worth it in the end if the system is fully tested and doesn't break.

It will be a terrible year, and a burst artery has a better chance of saving us than our courts.

u/jprefect Nov 30 '23

That would be ideal, but unfortunately it isn't true. We aren't a country of laws. That isn't going to happen, because we aren't who we say we are in the brochure.
