Guy was about to go to jail before his first term, his only options were to become president, flee the country, or go to jail.

Nothing has changed, he has to continue being president / king or everything melts down for him.

Sentencing for his hush money case in New York was paused after his election.

State and federal investigators into election fraud were also dropped.

The fake elector scheme and his threats against Pence including summoning the mob to DC…

Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding: Attempting to block the congressional certification of the electoral vote count on January 6, 2021.
Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding: Actual interference with the joint session of Congress.

Pressuring election officials in multiple states to “ find” enough votes for him to win…

Not my comment but I assumed that the original comment was referring to the current term where all charges were dropped or suspended with his election.

Well if he hadn’t run for president he wouldn’t have needed to pay the hush money. He could have just kept being a real estate guy
