Insanity means the country had a mad man at the helm. The Constitution does not protect us as it is.
Supporters would need admit that their leader was insane and they unable to see it.
Insanity now does not guarantee insanity then.
If Trump was sane then, justice for then is still required. The actions of the man must be adjudicated,.
Just as we are willing to try and convict juveniles as adults, I say try Trump as a sane man regardless of his current status.
An insane person needs to be locked up, not necessarily jailed, guilty or not, for their own and our safety.
