(33,310 posts)But there has to be evidence to charge him, and it is a very hard charge to prove. He never gave direction to the 1/6 crowd that was explicit, like "go invade the capitol and interrupt the proceedings", "steal the elector ballots", "kill mike pence", or "kill nancy pelosi".
He said "fight like hell", "we're going to walk to the Capitol". Like a mob boss, he is very good at walking that line; everyone knows what he means but it's all deniable.
I don't believe the DOJ is going to charge a former President with Sedition unless there is a giant flashing neon sign of proof. The risk of him being found innocent at trial is large, and would give him immense power as a victim of Liberal persecution in 2024. He's already waving that bloody flag; he's been waving it since 2016.
