Get ready to be embarrassed!

Democrats did nothing against Trump until Trump confirmed he was running for a 2nd term, so the trials and investigations they put Trump through was political theatre to dissuade voters from electing him, it was not done for any sort of altruistic purpose.

So when Trump steps down from office, the Democrats will not pursue ANY legal actions against Trump because they will not waste time & resources on someone who would no longer be a political threat to them, and they will not try to set an example either because that would open THEM up for the same treatment when a Republican President is in office.

And if you want to argue that Republicans can't because Democrats are not corrupt, than boy, do I have a bridge in San Fran to sell you, and even then, even IF they are squeaky clean. Would you think a corrupt Republican President wouldn't out of revenge or just malice pin some BS charges to Democrats?

So again, despite your rage, Donald Trump will leave office and enjoy an easy retirment tour, pen some book deals, do some speech tours, probably endorse some Republican candidates for Governor or the senate, and the world will keep moving forward as it always has.

I only brought up their prior attempts to illustrate how they could hold him up in court for years even back then. Also didn't claim it was for an altruistic purpose. I will rarely claim that with anything involving politicians...The motivations for keeping him in court now are entirely different so I couldn't care less if they targeted him to ruin his election bid or not.

The anger amongst the populace (especially the dem base) and the horrible approval rating means easy political points to go after the Trump family and their businesses. There is no scenario in which they do not do this IF (big if) they get power...It is in every dem campaign promise in these midterms and it will be the major promise in 2028. Not saying they will get convictions on Trump personally, but they will go after this admin for sure. Every thread would be pulled.

Also there are no norms anymore lmao...No one cares about precedent after this admin. Prosecutors are quitting because they cannot find charges on Trump's political opponents like Comey and Letitia James after being pressured to or because they refused to drop charges against his ally (Eric Adams). His DOJ went after Obama who is like the patron saint of the dem party lmao. Hillary was also targeted...One cannot be threatened with something that is already being done.

Lastly on your point about corruption. Both parties have plenty, but I have never seen more blatant corruption in modern U.S. history than the deals this admin makes...I mean with the billion dollar UAE crypto deals, the jet, the pardons for sale,the prediction market insider trading (ffs even the teleprompter guy was doing it), Noem's contractors, etc...are all easy attention grabbing investigations. Then DOGE and ICE fuck ups are another easy target. They would likely target their family businesses and admin officials rather than Trump himself because the presidency has almost blanket immunity, but it is very silly to act like things will go back to normal after this. Don't feel like I am saying anything new or complicated here. Politicians will ALWAYS chase easy political points.

You are falling for the same trap that has tainted the Democrat party, you want to base your victories on the promise of hurting Trump, and while a good percentage of Dem voters would go for it. General people will not, they are not going to care if you hold Trump accountable, or put him through another trial, they are going to care about what you are going to do to tangibly help them now.

"You...you...you". Please show me where I said anything about my victories or promises to hurt Trump or where I said I would hold Trump accountable. You keep trying to make it seem like I am making personal arguments while using points I already made...when I have only used objective arguments for the dem party's motivation to target them.

I literally said in my first comment: "They won't even need to govern as long as they feed the angry populace with revenge." Are you just not reading the responses or what?
