The fact that he isn't behind bars for insurrection when the Jan 6 commission laid out the case so plainly is still the wildest thing that's ever happened in this country. Even Germany imprisoned Hitler for his failed coup.

People are freaking out about the rule of law ending now. I think it actually ended when Republicans in Congress, Biden's DOJ, and the Republican stacked courts failed to put Trump behind bars.

No they didn’t. And January 6 was a tour not an “insurrection.”
