(11,795 posts)Too much leniency on Nixon, Reagan, Bush, & Bush is what got us into this fucked up situation in the first place. Throw his ass in jail already. Make an example for future Republican presidents. Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!
P. S. Happy Holidays me bradda!
I've been saying for some time now, that we've let too many people off the hook for too long. Who during the Bush years was held accountable for the Iraq war, black sites, torture, the financial crisis, election fraud, etc.? If there are no consequences for criminal behavior, the same people will keep coming back and new people will be emboldened to push the limits.

(115,674 posts)Or punitive enough. The biggest threat to Pence might be what happened to Ford as a result of pardoning Nixon, which was getting his ass handed to him in the next election.

(50,553 posts)1. Surrender of all real estate, commercial and personal property, vehicles and aircraft with the exception of a reasonable amount (let's say a "reasonable amount" is 250 pounds) of personal clothing.
2. Surrender of the full contents of all bank accounts and brokerage accounts. Trump may retain $100,000 in cash.
3. Surrender of all intellectual property revolving around the name Trump.
4. An agreement to change his last name to one that does not have five letters (either more or less is fine) and does not contain any letters that appear in the name Trump.
5. An agreement to move to another nation, renounce his US citizenship, and establish citizenship in the new nation.
6. An agreement never to reenter the United States.
The alternative is 240 months in federal prison, a $1 billion fine, and forfeiture of all business and personal assets to the government.
If he won't do either of those, then we really put the screws to him.

(11,885 posts)To a higher standard and held fully accountable receiving the harshest penalties allowed for his actions , or next time it'll be much worse. Holding the highest position in our government , being the top law enforcement officer he should be made an example of, not given a pass, or given leniency in any way. No deals should be given to him, or to pence. They were behind it all from the start.
