and died exiled and broken, grumbling about the harsh treatment of being exiled to a tropical island, which St. Helena was.

This oaf has outlived Napoleon by 19 years. Perhaps when hurricanes have wrecked all his pleasure palaces in the US, he, too, will decamp offshore in self exile. While I doubt at this point he will last the entire four years in office, I also doubt he will face prison. Rich men protect other rich men unless they're trying to take money away from them. The wheels of justice will not be greased by his adipose tissue.

I'm fine with that. I just want him gone.
