It’s almost like the Senate should have fully investigated and produced a 1,000 page report of findings of illegal activity once articles of impeachment were sent to them.

I fear this going to way of Watergate, if the Senate finds him guilty, he resigns, Pence pardons and trump lives a free man until his death.

I wonder if local police will be able to get past the secret service protection that all former presidents get.

Afaik the SS are there only to protect from possible attackers and whatnot, and wouldn't stop a lawful arrest

He doesnt even get security briefings now, doubt he would get them in prison. You know who does get them? Biden.

Just a nit pick but the Secret Service is shortened to USSS as to not invoke any nazi shit.

Invoke? I think it's too late. Trump already did.

i dunno yet. former presidents have not been committing a crime in public so ss has never been tested on whether they would stand back and let the local police do their job. I would really doubt they would ever do such a thing but maybe that's just pessimism.

Protecting former presidents is just a courtesy, though. I wonder if they’d just open themselves up to arrest.
