    Ugh. If the Senate had followed through with the impeachment he’d have been barred already. My dad’s a hardcore Republican and agrees the fucker is dangerous to democracy. I’m more worried at this point that his trials will align with the election and he’ll stir up another more deadly riot.

      I would not be surprised to learn that several Democrats in power did not want to convict him because they expected him to turn the Republican primary into a shitshow and they benefit personally from the chaos.

        To be certain. I lean right for most policy. But not a single issue voter. Trump is a total shit show. Been banned from conservative groups because I will mention that. But both sides don’t want the opposition to have good leadership. They do their best to take down any good leaders.
