"He will die in jail"

These were the words of an ex NSA intel official 3 weeks ago. At the time they struck me as an over reach to the situation at hand. Trump had declared war on our intel community with the boastfulness he uses while running his business. Now these words are all I hear when I observe the events unfolding around us. "He will die in jail" We are about to go over the falls with an event that may shake and break our democracy on the rocks below. "He will die in jail"

If Don Don just gets a federal bunk somewhere, he will be lucky.

He walked right into the den and pissed all over it, Trump is an incredibly stupid man. I often view him as the opposite of John F Kennedy.

Yes, when I heard Malcolm Nance refer to having heard that from a current/former? IC member, I thought well... maybe
But there had been no indication, (until that point), that anything close to irrefutable "proof" of something criminal would ever be found...

criminal claims related to campaign/political activities are hard to prove/make stick....
political collusion is even trickier to prosecute

But a RICO case, on the other hand....

one might very well find themselves in a position requiring that they permanently reside in a federal facility as a result of a strong RICO case....
