Just to make things clear, this is ultra-unprecedented in our history. While there are sentencing guidelines and even required term lengths, we've never had this happen and have virtually no legal precedent for proceeding with this. In other words, Jack Smith has crossed every t and dotted every i 20 times.
It looks like Pence pulled a reverse a Agnew. He even released a statement that was pretty damning.
To be clear, this isn't enjoyment. This isn't even relief. That Trump pushed the boundaries to such levels to warrant this is a tragedy for the country of bigly proportions. And nearly one half of the House want to riot now. This isn't done. And it doesn't even matter when Smith's case makes Trump's guilt obvious to a three year old. The GOP in the House needs to accept the findings or we have big problems.
That’s all true; I tried (poorly, it seems) to let @Tigers! know that even in the best case scenario, it will take several years to put the scumbag safely in jail. Meanwhile he remains the head of a violent nationwide cult that will spare no tactic in trying to preserve his freedom - at the cost of American democracy.
Great. More reason for MAGA folks to believe in Trump's persecution.
Until the number one witness is Mr. Christian White Boy (R-IN).

At some point we need to stop worrying about what MAGAt morons think, and hope we sufficiently outnumber them at the polls.
I'm not worried as much about the Trump cult, I'm worried about the Alt-Right in the House, that voted for this election theft and are speaking very aggressively against the indictment. We might never heal from the Trump presidency. The GOP is too damn lost to allow it.

I’m sure Jack would prefer they be cooperating witnesses rather than defendants.
They not likely to get off without a guilty plea for some “lesser charge”, and probably some days in jail. This is not just another mob thing where Rudi et al were just running numbers.
And he will be a key witness at the trial, probably the star witness.
He doesn't get credit for obeying the most fundamental and simplest aspect of our democracy. In fact he could have made this pressure public news and expose these plans before hand.
Y’mean they might never heal. Like the John Birch/Goldwater Republicans of the 60s. We shall see if they’re still all in once the facts in the indictment are more widely known.
Exactly. Pence ain't no hero.
