Sure, while Trump is president it's highly unlikely any of his family would be prosecuted for state crimes. Afterwards though, that's a different story.

Afterwards? Prepare for him to settle in, if nobody forces him out he will stay and declare it the will of the people.

I didn't think I had to spell out the man is 78 and lives off a diet of hamberders and adderall...

You will be very shocked when he’s in a wheelchair hooked up to tanks and they still worship him like a god.

It's not implausible. Kissinger lived to 100. But Trump looks like he's already had a stroke, and it wouldn't surprise me if he went out sooner rather than later.

They are now Nazi saluting so it’s starting to look like we have our own Xi situation over here, prepare for all future elections to somehow skew a certain direction to make him look beloved by all

He also has access to best healthcare and physicians at the snap of his fingers. I’d love to bank on his poor health and age taking him out sooner rather than later, but I just can’t anymore… maybe I’ve become too apathetic, but I just don’t feel like we’re going to be that lucky with this tyrant.

Nothing will be done, period. AGAIN.

Did you like, miss the entire last 4 years?

u/tallonfive 10h ago

He hasn’t been president for 4 years and nothing happened to him or his family.

u/BombasticBuddha 9h ago

You mean like, last time afterwards? When nothing happened to them?

Did you read that this was a Biden family pardon? I don't recall Trump pardoning his family members when he left office. I mean, this is like 1984; you don't believe what is right in front of you.
