At this point, would you prefer that he just kick the bucket and spare us the court theatrics?

[Goodheart]

And by "him" you know whom I'm talking about.

[Ocelot II]

1. Yes.

And I'd want his funeral to be televised just so I could be sure the MF is dead.

[Goodheart]

2. Well, you see, I disagree.

I want to see him squirm. I want his crimes to go on legal record. And I want to see him jailed.

[Ocelot II]

3. Of course that would be satisfying, but that means we'd have to see

his ugly mug on the news for months or even years. I would prefer that he just goes the fuck away, however that can be accomplished, and I never have to hear, see, or think about him ever again.

[Beachnutt]

4. But the funeral and lying in state...

ugh..

[Ocelot II]

5. Nobody gets a funeral unless they're dead.

That fact would make up for whatever ceremony takes place.

[Beachnutt]

9. Good point....

[MuseRider]

7. I am afraid this one is like

a bad smell. It will reek forever.

[yonder]

10. I'm with you...a long life, healthy or not, spent behind bars.

[MyOwnPeace]

37. Yes, I'm with you - I want the WHOLE package!

So many more indictments coming down on him he'll think....... oh, hell, he doesn't 'think.'

I want AT LEAST 1 PERP WALK - cuffs and his hair all f-ed up because they hit him fast.

MANY, MANY hours on the stand lying his a$$ off as the entire courtroom AND country (if they can be televised) watches and laughs their asses off. Maybe even make a drinking game out of it - you know, like the old Newhart show where you took a shot every time somebody said, "Hi, Bob!" Here it could be with every lie he says - yeah, I know - we'd all be smashed after the first 15 minutes!

I want to see him STAND with that f-ed up posture (belly on the table and Depends showing through the tents he wears for pants) and hear what the juries will surely tell him - GUILTY!!!!!!!

I want to see the MAGA kingdom go NUTS when he's sent up the river. THAT is when we'll see all of the Republiqan rats scrambling for new cheese. Which 'former' supporter will be the first to come out with a new round of lies saying that they never liked him and were not 'happy' that he was a Republiqan (hello, I've got my bet on Sweet Lindsey!).

I want to see/hear the avalanche of Republiqans running away from him, 'claiming' they never liked the guy and he was not a 'true Republiqan.' Speaker McCarthy (if he's still Speaker) will be an interesting one to watch.

And yes, I want to see the day he's marched into his new home for the rest of his life - a federal penitentiary.

I'm not asking for much - but boy, would all of that be great!

[debm55]

46. Wound he still get a state funeral if he was in prison. I hope not. That treasonous bastard.

[Bucky]

29. Agree 100%

Giving up on the rule of law is how we got magatism to begin with

[I_UndergroundPanther]

21. Same need proof the orange baboon is dead.

[MLAA]

6. I'd like to see him serve some time in prison which he so richly deserves.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

22. Wish it was on a series.on tv

The profits of watching asshole melt down would get millions of viewers for the schadenfreude alone.

[MLAA]

32. It would be the first reality tv show I'd like to watch. All proceeds go to fight hate and support

victims/groups.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

8. I looking forward to seeing the indictments and trials

[bahboo]

11. yup....

[Mr.Bill]

12. I would have prefered seeing him dead

ever since the early 70s.

[PJMcK]

16. I'm with you

Trump has been pissing off New Yorkers for decades. He’s such a degenerate loser that I cannot fathom how anyone could admire him.

[malaise]

27. Hehehehhe

I just want him gone

[lpbk2713]

13. I've been wishing him dead since 2016.

As uncharitable as that may sound. Nonviolently and more or less from natural causes of course.

[Goodheart]

14. While he was in office, yes, so did I.

Now I want to see him croak in the slammer.

[dflprincess]

15. No

The cult will just turn him into a martyr if that happens.

[ProfessorGAC]

19. They'll Do That Anyway

After indictment, during the trial and times 10 if he gets convicted.
Him dying doesn't turn him into martyr more than the trial would.
And, a dead martyr is at least silent.

[ProfessorGAC]

17. Yes

As much as I'd like to see him behind bars, any trial will become circus maximus.

[Bucky]

26. Last one wasn't

[ProfessorGAC]

31. Civil & Criminal Trials Seem Very Different To Me (nt)

[hlthe2b]

18. MAGATs would make him a martyr & we'd all have to acquiesce to the horror of a STATE funeral

During which his horrific crimes and behavior would be totally whitewashed for the history books.

So, no.

[Bucky]

25. Yeah, that

Even if the desire for justice is mostly aspirational, we have to live in hope.

[NewHendoLib]

20. I've been waiting for that bucket to be kicked longer than

I recall. He's always nauseated me

[Elessar Zappa]

23. Honestly, yes.

I want him gone.

[Bucky]

24. I'd like to see him rack up a couple more convictions, just to clarify the historical record

I don't wish death on anyone. It's bad form.

But I do wish justice on everyone

[MyOwnPeace]

38. An historic quote perhaps reflecting your thought.......

“I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure."

(a quote attributed to either Mark Twain or Clarence Darrow)

[Matthew28]

28. No

Trump would be far easier to beat and is sadly less dangerous then DeSantis. I fear for this countries future if we don't win in 2024.

[dmr]

52. I'm with you.

I fear for our future, as well.

As you said:

Trump would be far easier to beat and is sadly less dangerous then DeSantis.

I like most of what everyone has posted in this thread.

But, I'd like to see TFG suffer. He's hurt so many people in his lifetime, the least he can do is suffer. Bigly.

I tell you what, I'm not looking forward to the future "loving" tributes the MAGA-cult will carry on once he dies. They'll be (or at least try) naming roads, schools, post offices, airports, etc after TFG. I hated it after Reagan passed.

About the only thing worthy to name after him would be:

The Donald J. Trump Federal Penitentiary

[Turbineguy]

30. That would be the easiest solution.

But I would expect his rubes to invent some sort of conspiracy that will need to be investigated for years.

[Karadeniz]

33. No. I want jail time.

[Calculating]

34. Trump is literally helping the Dems at this point

He's unelectable, but he'll take the party down with him if he isn't the nominee. If he was to die or something then someone like Ron Desantis would have a pretty decent shot.

[Lunabell]

35. No.

I would love for it to have a stroke. Leaving him unable to swallow, eat or drink by mouth, drooling, pissing and shitting in his adult briefs while enoying his diet coke and pureed hamberders via a G-tube poking through his abdomen.

Try leading an insurrection from your jazzy wheelchair, traitor.

[Doc Sportello]

36. I like the way you think

I personally just wish the asshole would die so we don't have to hear about him anymore and I am not convince he will ever do jail time. But your proposal sounds pretty good.

[Lunabell]

47. He and his ilk need to suffer.

Like they've made us and anyone who doesn't fit in their white, male dominated, christo-fascist mold suffer under their anti-democratic authoritarianism. Those types should ALL be in this condition, maybe just to find out about real compassion and empathy. You know, when they find out that most of their healthcare workers are liberal Democrats.

I know. They probably won't understand, even then.

[Doc Sportello]

49. I watched a series about the woman who helped hide Anne Frank and her family

Watching "A Small Light" the past few days just made me so angry for I've forgotten how many times about what was done to good people then. They were degraded, stolen from, left without hope and then murdered en masse. And then I remembered the evil creep wearing that Auschwitz shirt at the insurrection and know that we cannot let these present day fascists win. They are just as evil as the Nazis were then but haven't had the chance to reveal themselves. I hope he sufers in jail and don't care what anyone thinks about that.

[Lunabell]

50. I hope I'm the kind of person who would do the same as Miep Gies.

Or Corrie Ten Boom and her family. They were on the right side of love.

[Doc Sportello]

54. I bet you would

I read up on Miep after the series ended and she always said that she just did what anybody would do. I doubt that but she definitely had the courage to do the right thing and the smarts to pull it off. What she and Jan did during the occupation was just remarkable and inspiring.

[meadowlander]

39. All of his enablers need to go down with him.

[JustAnotherGen]

40. No

Then I want him to die. After he's found guilty.

[Mr. Ected]

41. Frankly, even if there were court theatrics, a guilty verdict on any or all counts

Would be treated as political vengeance rather than justice by over 70 million Americans. There will be no come uppance. There will be no learn from our mistakes. There will be no resulting self-reflection. All we will see and hear, and hear loudly, is denial, anger and claims for revenge. MAGA will not be chastened; they will be fortified. An 'oppressed' people need a martyr. To them, he's not a person, he's a personification. If he is tried and found guilty, they will attack the Capitol in a metaphorical sense next time. They want to burn this mother down. That's their sole intention. And yet they're clueless on what they'll do once the government smoulders in te distance.

That being said, we need the cleansing rinse of a trial, of several trials, to prove the mettle of the nation. Are we truly a nation of laws or has that concept been forever tarnished by the whispers of MAGA? Just like with the 2 impeachments, the results could likely be highly disappointing to all of us; how difficult would it be for us to have to suffer again the consequence of villainy triumphing over truth and justice?

I think what we're about to embark upon may be one of the most difficult moments in our long history, and we are the lucky citizens entrusted to carry that mantel. Rough seas ahead, no doubt; time will tell whether the Founders' vision will be bolstered or whether it will require the administration of last rites.

[Trenzalore]

42. If he did there would be conspiracy theories on the right galore

Despite the fact, he is a morbidly obese 77-year-old who eats McDonald's every day and doesn't exercise.

The real theatre would be who goes to claim the crown.

[niyad]

43. Stroke out already, you F'n, murdering, orange, RAPIST, TRAITOR**.

Does that answer your question?

[fierywoman]

44. I would like to see him silenced, in whatever form that might take.

[MustLoveBeagles]

45. Yes

I just want him gone.

[roamer65]

48. Yes.

[Maru Kitteh]

51. I would prefer his cult witness him as an abject loser.

I don't care how that happens, only that it does.

[canetoad]

53. The US seems to have a lust for vengeance

That I don't personally share.

Best for all that he dies. End of story.

[Tracyjo]

55. Yes

[tavernier]

56. I want to see Jack trump him.

In a United States Court of Law.
