Ya think we will get a Nuremberg style trial after this is ALL over?

Maybe it should be broadcast all over the world so people can see that under all that bullshit there are still citizens willing to stand up to the Government and bring down a would be dictator, and all of his henchmen/women. From the Senate to inside his administration. They have to go down and there has to be a way to make things right again. RISE UP AMERICA.


Edited to note: When i mean a Nuremberg style trial, i don't mean it being international. This is in our house and our problem. But a trail of its kind, where people are bought to justice ... (we need a new Attorney General) and facts presented, and if they are criminal charges , dealt with in a reasonable manner.

We will handle any issues in house. I suspect that if not returned to office Trump will end up with a blanket pardon, just like Nixon.

While I normally advocate for the peaceful transition of power (and that means NOT prosecuting criminals if and when they surrender their political power peacefully), I feel that this time is different and that we need a national reckoning. We need investigations, trials, and the imprisonments of a number of bad actors who have done serious damage to our republic.

But, do I think that will happen?

No.

Independent Prosecutor has more autonomy and authority than a Mueller style Special Prosecutor.

I want everyone investigated, right down to the caterer at the ICE Christmas party.

It’s the only way to “heal the soul of America”.

I would love to see Trump, Pence, Barr, all the way down to Limbaugh and Hannity testify before a Senate committee. But that is wishful thinking at this point.

As they claim that were never for tRUMP or they will threaten to pour more gasoline their radical fringe to ignite a civil war, because they can't risk how far the corruption goes. Republicans will just settle for a wash and repeat cycle again with the Democratic Party and American People losing more power.
