And, as so many have already said, it WILL be ugly.
The one thing that I believe will happen is:
After a conviction, while anger is growing among the remaining followers, IQ45 will do things even more outrageous - and THAT will turn off most of the remaining few who could possible give a s**t about him. At that time even they will deny they had ever liked him and will be acting like those life-long smokers who had recently quit - THEY will be avid disciples and lead the outcry for the destruction of the 'tRump' myth and regime.

violent reactions from his supporters.

But, I agree that it must be done.

For anyone who doubts that Trump will continue with violence in his attempts to overtake the country, I recommend Malcolm Vance's book, They Want to Kill Americans. Nance has developed an acronym for the what is happening, TITUS. It stands for Trump Insurgency in the US.

Well over 80,000 votes for Democrats opposing any Maga-publicans running for any office would be the silver bullets that could take them down.

yES, INDEED...........I have a newspaper from 74 down in the basement...Headline....."I am not a crook"

Some people had followed Nixon from the late 40s, and they said..."He is a crook"...............Nixon lost an election for governor...
He said...something like, "I am done with politics." Was he ever ............"Done with Politics"......

In some ways, the same sort of........ LIAR THAT TRUMP IS....(something about his secretary erased some tapes by error

His overcooked tRump steaks won't kill him off fast enough. I want him to be REALLY finished, no questions and no doubts. Actually, I personally prefer him to suffer in agonizing pain through every cell of his evil body.

And even then, I’m not sure he’ll be finished. He really is like a vampire in that regard. I only hope I’m still around for his national day of mourning, when it comes. Monday would be fine with me.
