    If he could be found guilty of a serious crime before the first GOP primary, that would be super helpful. Can we get this done?

        It actually wouldn’t be the first time we’ve had somebody running for President from prison. Eugene Debbs ran for President from a federal prison cell in the 1920 election. He also promised to pardon himself if he was elected.

        the results are not important to these people anyway. the election is null and void as far as they are concerned unless trump wins. so makes no difference trying to pander to fascists. punch them in the face and deplatform them.

        If convicted of any of the numerous crimes he’s charged with, this man and his co-conspirators represent a palpable danger to democracy and should never be able to get near the levers of power again.

        As it stands, the public should recognize the danger he and his ilk have already demonstrated on the world and domestic stage and relegate them to a bad memory.
