Maybe he shouldn't have attempted a coup? Consequences indeed.

You think election denialism was bad before? Just wait until it's literally illegal for Trump to get elected lol

The nation is only as strong as we're willing to fight corruption and enforce laws.

If Trump faces no consequences it will be easier for the next dictator wannabe to seize control.

Pissing off maga morons is a small price to pay.

Trump should have faced consequences years ago. They waited too long and now he's running for president again.

The legal system moves slowly and this is rather unprecedented so there is a lot of room for debate.

Your don't just skip all that. It's important that the legal system work this out so Trump Jr. (figuratively and possibly literally) faces clear consequences in the future.

The best time to punish him was on Jan 6, the second best time is now.
